How can guys get help?
An unexpected pregnancy can bring a lot of questions and emotions for both people involved. You may feel shocked, confused, worried, or unsure of what to do next. If your partner has shared that she is pregnant or thinks she might be, it’s normal to have your own thoughts and concerns as you process the news.
You Don’t Have to Figure This Out Alone

processing the news
Your role matters. An unexpected pregnancy affects both of you, and your support and involvement can have a meaningful impact as your partner considers her next steps. We believe fathers and partners play an important role in the lives of women, children, and families. One of the most valuable things you can do is listen, communicate openly, and encourage your partner to gather accurate information as she considers her options.
HOW YOU CAN SUPPORT HER
You may also need support yourself. Questions about finances, relationships, school, work, family reactions, or future plans can feel overwhelming. Talking with a trusted friend, family member, mentor, or support worker can help you process what you’re thinking and feeling.
It’s important to remember that people often need time to work through unexpected news. Your partner, parents, friends, or other loved ones may have strong reactions at first. Giving yourself and others space to process emotions can help create healthier conversations and better support moving forward.
you need support too
You do not have to navigate this situation alone. Speaking with a support worker can provide a safe, confidential place to ask questions, explore concerns, and better understand the options available. Whether you come on your own or with your partner, having a place to talk can help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
No matter what you are feeling right now, support is available. Taking time to gather information, ask questions, and talk through your concerns can help you respond thoughtfully as you consider the road ahead.
