That term crisis pregnancy almost seems like an ozymorone to me personaly.. but I don't have to try very hard to understand and put myself in other women's shoes for a moment.. imagine if I found out my baby had a developmental problem that would require lots of expensive medical intervention for the rest of our lives.. or if I was a single, yonger woman who felt like I had little to no support.. I can see how an unplanned pregnancy would most definitly be a crisis.
There are MANY good resources out there for women who need help at this very scary & important time in their lives. I have tried to list a few. If you know of more let me know & I will add them to the list. Keep this in your "back pocket" incase you are ever in a posistion to offer help to a women looking for advice or resources.
Crisis Pregnancy Centers are the heart of the ProLife community; they help needy mothers and offer alternatives to abortion. But keep in mind that not all crisis pregnancy center value the dignity of life, so ask or do some reasearch before recomending anyplace.
