Pregnancy Support

Discovering that you or your partner is pregnant can be an exciting, daunting and sometimes difficult time. Even when trying to fall pregnant, it is common for couples to feel overwhelmed once the pregnancy is confirmed. The privilege of parenthood often arrives before we feel ‘ready’.

The physical and hormonal changes in a woman’s body during the first few weeks also make it difficult to think clearly and evaluate your situation. A sympathetic ear can help you to work through your feelings and provide the information needed to approach the next 9 months with courage and confidence.
