Am I Pregnant?

Early pregnancy symptoms check-list:

  • Is your period more than 2 days late?

  • Have you felt any changes in your breasts; are they sore or tender or do they feel heavier?

  • Do any smells or foods bother you?

  • Have you experienced spotting? 

  • Find yourself going to pee more often? 

  • Sleeping regularly but still feeling wiped out?

  • Have you had an increase in cervical mucus? 

  • Do you have a metallic taste in your mouth?​

  • Have you experienced bloating or cramping or other PMS symptoms without a full period?

  • Do you have any other symptoms in combination? (headaches, nausea, food aversions, cravings)

Your Next Steps

If you answer yes to a few of these questions or have had unprotected sex (or contraceptive failure), we can help.​ We provide free pregnancy testing. If positive, you may qualify for a free obstetrical ultrasound to confirm a viable intrauterine (in the uterus) pregnancy. An ultrasound provides essential information regarding your pregnancy options. 


Even if you’ve already taken a home pregnancy test, come see us. We can provide confirmation of your pregnancy and discuss your options in a safe, supportive place.

Contact us today to schedule a confidential consultation with one of our experienced staff at no charge to you.
