Planned or unplanned, you've got some decisions to make. If you've decided that you're going to continue the pregnancy, the next decision you have to make is finding a medical professional you're comfortable with. Whether you've decided that a hospital birth or a more holistic birth is right for you, finding a supportive medical professional that makes you comfortable and is respectful of your birthing plans is important. Take the time to research, talk to friends and get referrals. Having a great medical professional can often make a huge difference in your birthing experience.

Once you've found a professional you're interested in working with for the next nine months, you can start thinking about the other important decisions you've got to make. Such as deciding whether or not to find out the gender of your child, researching and making a birthing plan and preparing yourself for your hospital or birthing center stay.

There are a lot of decisions that need to be made between now and the birth of your child. Parenthood is a big responsibility and it starts now, during your pregnancy.
