Facing the Unexpected: Hearing ‘I’m Pregnant’

If the words “I’m pregnant” brought instant fear into your world, you’re not broken or weak—you’re human. Many men in your position wrestle with the thought, “I’m just not ready to be a dad.”

The Good News? You Don’t Have to Have All the Answers Right Now.
Readiness doesn’t come in a rush. It develops as you learn, gain support, and take the next step forward. The unknown will always feel scary at first—but it won’t always feel this way.

What You Can Do Right Now

Be honest with your girlfriend about your emotions, but also listen to hers. Don’t shut down or disappear. Just being present matters. Reach out for real, non-judgmental support that helps you sort things out.
