Unplanned Pregnancy is not something a woman has to face alone.
The man by her side during this time can be a crucial support that makes her feel not alone and helps her confidently decide on the best path for herself.
The Role Men Can Play
1. Listen Without Judging Listen attentively, giving her the opportunity to express her feelings. Don’t just listen passively, but listen with understanding.
2. Discuss with Reason Avoid saying “It’s up to you” as it may make her feel she has to bear the decision alone. Engage in a reasoned discussion and gently share perspectives.
3. Find Safe Information Together, search for information from reliable sources such as rsathai.org to support decision-making and reduce anxiety.
4. Don’t Disappear Being consistently present, even without saying much, is a significant encouragement for her.
5. Share Responsibility No matter what the final decision is, you have a role in sharing responsibility and fully supporting her physical and mental health care.
If you don’t know where to start… Try opening the conversation with a simple sentence like “We will find a solution together” Just starting with understanding can make this difficult time much lighter for her than you might think.
