I’m Pregnant and Don’t Want the Baby in Arizona [What Are My Options?]

If you’re pregnant and don’t want to be, there are unplanned pregnancy options available to you. An unplanned pregnancy can be overwhelming, so it’s important that you are absolutely sure you don’t want your baby. 

When you are pregnant but don’t want a baby, you have two main options: 

• Adoption

• Abortion

Only you know what’s best for you and your baby, and your unique set of circumstances will likely play into your decision.

If you don’t want to be a parent, adoption is always an option for you. If you’re wondering what to do if, once pregnant, you don’t want a baby; there are many families out there who do. These families can provide a safe, loving home for your child and give him or her all of the love and opportunities that you may not currently be able to provide. 

If you’re pregnant and don’t want to be, then abortion could be another option for you. There are a couple of factors that might play into this in terms of being a viable option including how far along you are and whether or not your insurance can help cover the costs. Arizona allows for abortion up to 22 weeks into your pregnancy.

You can get information on your pregnancy options and how adoption can be the right decision for you by calling one of our adoption specialists at 1-800-ADOPTION or reaching out online.
