Parenting might feel impossible right now. Maybe you’re worried that your goals and dreams will be unattainable if you parent. Or perhaps you’re concerned about how to parent if you don’t have your partner’s support.

No matter what you’re feeling, your experience and worries are understandable. But you’re not alone in this. Many women in your situation have chosen to parent and discovered it’s their best decision.

Is Parenting Right for Me?

While parenting is a complex choice that only you can make, asking yourself the following questions can help you think through this option:

  • How might I feel if I choose to parent/don’t choose to parent?
  • What might my life look like if I decide to parent?
  • What are my biggest concerns about parenting?
  • What excites me about the idea of parenting?

While these questions can help you start thinking about parenting, sometimes it can help to talk to someone.
