How Do I Support My Partner?
Has an unplanned pregnancy completely caught you off guard? We know you can feel like you’re out of control, but you don’t have to figure this out on your own. Your partner needs your full attention and support. Try your best to get the support you need and support her as best as possible.
You and your partner may have the following questions:
- What do we do now?
- Can I financially support a child?
- Is the baby really mine?
- How do we tell our parents?
- What about adoption, abortion, or parenting?
- What does she expect from me?
Am I Ready To Be A Father?
Whatever you and your partner decide to do next, you will always be a father. If you had a great father growing up, you likely associate positive ideas with fatherhood, like comfort, strength, etc. However, you will likely have negative associations if you had a difficult or absent father.
Do you have fatherhood questions like:
- What kind of father do I want to be?
- How do I support my child?
- How do I take care of a newborn?
- How can I be a good example?
While parenting is challenging, it comes with some of life’s most joyful and memorable moments.
