When deciding to continue the pregnancy, think positively about the future. You should not think or do anything alone with emotions that may negatively affect yourself.
In the case of an unplanned pregnancy, you should find a way to inform those involved to make them aware of the truth, so that someone understands what is happening to you and can provide help when needed, such as when it’s time to give birth, during labor, assisting with hospital transport, and providing care after childbirth.
If you cannot tell anyone and are worried about how to manage your life, you should seek a counselor for assistance, such as consulting officers from various agencies like the One Stop Crisis Center, adolescent clinics in hospitals, children’s and family shelters in every province, or receive counseling services from various hotlines to inquire about information and seek advice on available resources.
Assessing readiness for child-rearing Women with unplanned pregnancies often have other accompanying issues, such as domestic violence, relationships with family members, separation from a partner while pregnant, being abandoned to face pregnancy alone, as well as economic problems like unemployment, insufficient income, lack of housing, being in school, or other issues. When encountering these problems, women with unplanned pregnancies who wish to continue the pregnancy will certainly need help.
Currently, many hospitals assess the readiness for child-rearing. Staff will inquire to assess the situation and provide advice during pregnancy and after childbirth. You can notify the hospital’s social welfare department or seek help from children’s and family shelters, the provincial social development office, or private sector organizations working in this field to provide assistance that aligns with your needs.
