An unplanned pregnancy can be intimidating for anyone, but especially if you're young. You are capable! Work on these 5 things to help your parenting journey go more smoothly:
1) Take it one day at a time
Don't get ahead of yourself. It's ok if you don't know it all, make mistakes, don't have it all figured out, or if you don't know what's next. Although it's easy to be anxious about parenting, take a deep breath. When you slow down and focus on doing well in each moment, the future isn't quite so scary.
2) Focus on learning and growing
Every parent has a lot to learn, including teenage parents. Fortunately, there are a TON of resources available to you! Try a pregnancy or parenting class, find a mentor, or talk with your healthcare provider for more information about all things baby.
3) Be ready to break the molds people make for you
Between social media and people's preconceptions, there are a lot of boxes that you might try to fit in. Worrying about these molds will drain you. Instead, focus on doing what is right for you and your baby. Listen to wise counsel, but don't feel like you need to fit the exact picture that society as a whole has of you.
4) Improve your soft skills
Work on growing your soft skills, like communication, listening, conflict resolution, etc. Use these skills for conversations with your boyfriend or girlfriend, your parents, your teachers, and many more. These are skills that many people learn as they mature, but they are things that you'll have to focus on to have an easier time as a young parent.
5) Lean on your community
No parent can do everything on their own - especially young ones. Lean on your community. There are resources available to you, people to guide and support you, and much more. If you try to do it all on your own, you'll burn yourself out. There are people who care about you!
Again, we're here to support you. We offer free pregnancy and parenting classes, life coaching, and physical resources (diapers, wipes, baby clothes, etc.) to make parenting doable for you. For more information, or to set up an appointment, call or text (320)-874-0124.

Will it go away?

If you've tested positive for an STD, you may be hoping that it'll just run its course and go away. Unfortunately, that isn't the case for most STDs. In most cases, the infection will get worse over time instead of getting better.

Although there are some cases of HPV and HepB where the infection goes away over time, these two diseases can also lead to major health complications if untreated: cancer and chronic liver infections. While there is no cure for either of these diseases, there are treatments for their symptoms or to stop the virus from spreading.

With any STD, it is important to take the disease seriously. Untreated, they can lead to fertility complications, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, and various cancers. They can also spread, even if there's no symptoms.

Not sure if you have an STD? Get tested! We offer free and confidential STD testing for men and women. For more information, or to set up an appointment, call or text (320)-874-0124.
