As you consider what to do, you may . . .
. . . feel overwhelmed with questions that seem too tough to resolve.
. . . believe that your choice is just between abortion or keeping your baby.
. . . find that most of the information you have is just about being a single parent, with very little information about marriage or adoption.
. . . not know about the help that is available.
"When I found out I was pregnant I felt so confused and alone. I wanted to pretend it was all a dream—that I would wake up soon. I thought I had lost everything I had hoped for. I knew I needed to do something, but didn't know where to start or who to trust."
—Marci, age 20

"At LDS Family Services I had somebody who would just
listen to me and help me. I needed that. My counselor
helped me to understand that there are ways to solve the
problem of being single and pregnant—that there
was hope."
