Support For Men

Finding out your partner is pregnant unexpectedly can be a lot to handle. You may feel pressure to have all the answers, but the most important thing you can do is be there for her. Your support—both emotionally and practically—can make a lasting impact on her confidence and well-being.

Listen and Communicate Openly

Your partner may be experiencing a mix of emotions—fear, uncertainty, or even excitement. Instead of rushing into solutions, take the time to listen without judgment. Let her express her feelings and concerns without pressure. A simple “I’m here for you, and we’ll figure this out together” can make all the difference.

Step Into Your Role as a Father

Even if this pregnancy wasn’t planned, you have an opportunity to be present and engaged. Your role as a father begins now, and Women’s Creekside Clinic offers resources to help you step into that role with confidence.

The Father’s Program: Support for Dads

At Women’s Creekside Clinic, we recognize that fathers play a vital role in a child’s life. Our Father’s Program is designed to equip men with the tools and knowledge to foster healthy relationships, navigate co-parenting, and build strong connections with their children.

This program offers:

• Parenting education courses to help you understand child development and fatherhood responsibilities.
• Healthy relationship education to strengthen communication and teamwork with your partner.
• Father-child events to encourage meaningful engagement.
• Relationship coaching to support co-parenting and family stability.

Whether you’re navigating this journey with your partner, as a stepfather, or as another male caregiver, the Father’s Program provides practical advice and real support from experienced dads who have helped men overcome barriers to fatherhood.
