Brittany is a mother of three and recently discovered she is pregnant again.
Immediately, tensions began flooding her mind: “How will we get by financially? How will I keep working with an infant?” She felt that abortion was the only way to escape these pressures.
On her way to get an abortion, on the busy streets of The Bronx, Britany met a sidewalk counselor. The counselor was aware that CompassCare’s Mobile Medical Unit (Mobile 1) was parked nearby that day and invited Brittany to get a free ultrasound. Interested, Brittany approached the friendly CompassCare nurse on Mobile 1.
Brittany’s nurse quickly set up the ultrasound, which revealed a very active 10-week-old baby.
Brittany was shocked.
She still felt the pressures of her circumstances but agreed to take time to consider her decision.
Two weeks later, a follow-up ultrasound revealed the now 12-week-old baby again jumping all around! Brittany left again, still undecided.
Last week, Brittany told her nurse that she and the baby’s father are excited to welcome their baby into the world—calling him a blessing!
CompassCare will continue connecting Brittany to resources in NYC to help throughout her pregnancy and beyond.
