What to Do If You’re Pregnant and Homeless
Finding out you’re pregnant can feel overwhelming. If you’re also facing homelessness or unstable housing, the situation can feel even more stressful and uncertain.
You might be asking yourself questions like:
Where will I live?
How will I afford a baby?
Is there any help available for someone in my situation?
The good news is that you are not alone, and there are organizations and resources that exist specifically to help women facing situations just like this.
Start by Confirming Your Pregnancy
If you think you might be pregnant, the first step is confirming the pregnancy with a lab-quality pregnancy test and ultrasound.
An ultrasound can tell you:
- How far along you are
- Whether the pregnancy is viable
- What next steps may be available
Prestonwood Pregnancy Center offers these services completely free and confidentially, so you can get accurate information before making any decisions.
Look for Free Support Services
If you’re pregnant and experiencing housing instability, there may be more help available than you realize. This might include…
- Temporary housing programs
- Medical care referrals
- Food and nutrition assistance
- Parenting classes
- Baby supplies like diapers, clothing, and cribs
We offer free pregnancy tests, ultrasounds and guidance, and can also connect you to community resources for housing, baby essentials and financial support.
