Sierra's Story

According to Sierra, there were two potential fathers for her unborn baby; guy #1 had kids already, so he told her “you can do whatever you want to do with the baby, because he was not ready to have another child.” Guy #2 and client had been in relationship off and on when they lived in another city; he had no kids and he wanted client to keep the baby as long as it’s his baby.

Sierra had an unstable situation since she was unemployed and currently lived with a roommate.  She was a full time student with no support system here in Houston as all of her family members lived back home.

Sierra already knew she was at the early stage of her pregnancy; she thought there wasn’t a heartbeat yet. She had only came to confirm her pregnancy because her home test was inconclusive. She also wanted to hear about her options, and if possible to get information on early termination without surgical procedures.

The Ultrasound was able to show a visual sign of heartbeat; this surprised Sierra because although she was still at the early stages of pregnancy there was already a heart beating inside of her. It was then that she changed her mind from abortion to undecided.  We calculated the time of conception, which indicated that Guy#2 was the FOB! Thanks to the ultrasound she had the answer she desperately needed! She was going to go and have that conversation with him that night.

We had a follow-up phone call with Sierra and she was still undecided. However her boyfriend was super happy to know he is responsible for the pregnancy and wants to parent.

We are committed to following up with Sierra regarding her pregnancy and hoping for a decision to parent her baby.
