August is behind us, which means summer is winding down and my mind is turning toward fall! I love living in the Midwest, where we experience four distinct seasons every year. The transition from summer to autumn happens to be one of my favorites. But in the broader context of life, most periods of change don’t come with pleasant, festive vibes. Some transitions just feel shocking and painful. That’s true for countless women who are going through an unexpected pregnancy as we shift from August to September. Maybe you’ve found yourself in this difficult place, and you don’t know what to do next or where to turn. Avenue Women’s Center can help!
