We can also help you get a free ultrasound through our mobile unit, which will give you the clarity and information you need to make an informed decision about your next step.
Why an Ultrasound Is So Important
A positive pregnancy test doesn’t tell the whole story. Only an ultrasound can confirm whether your pregnancy is viable (developing), how far along you are, and whether it’s correctly located inside the uterus.
These facts matter, especially if you’re considering abortion; knowing how far along you are helps determine what options are available.
For example, the FDA only approves the drugs for the abortion pill through 10 weeks of gestation. Without an ultrasound, knowing if that option is medically available is difficult.
Ultrasound Protects Your Health
An ultrasound can also help identify critical medical concerns. Many pregnancies (over 1 in 4) end naturally in miscarriage. Some miscarriages require medical care or follow-up, so it’s essential to know if your pregnancy is progressing before making a decision.
Ultrasound can also detect an ectopic pregnancy, a condition where the pregnancy develops outside the uterus. An ectopic pregnancy is a serious and potentially life-threatening pregnancy that requires immediate medical treatment. An ultrasound allows medical professionals to catch this early.

You deserve to make a decision that is informed, confident, and free from pressure. At New Life Family Outreach, we’re here to provide the support you need.
