Unplanned pregnancies come as a huge surprise to some mothers, and whether it's a pleasant surprise or a dreadful one, it is almost always a cause for alarm. In fact, there are many reasons for immediate concern once you learn that you are unexpectedly expecting, from being financial unprepared to major health risks for the fetus and yourself. The following are just some of the risks associated with becoming pregnant and having no knowledge of the conception, such as having to mutter the phrase "adopt my baby."

The first concern a mother tends to have for her unborn son or daughter is whether or not they are healthy, which can be even more overwhelming when you were not given time to prepare your body for gestation. Your baby will go through some substantial developmental changes through the course of the first few weeks of pregnancy. If your body is not in optimal condition, it could greatly hinder the baby's development and even result in a serious risk for birth defects.

A developing fetus requires a certain amount of vitamins and nutrients to become happy healthy human beings. A mother that is unaware that she even has a fetus developing within her may neglect to get those nutrients. On the other hand, a mother who planned to become pregnant could take extra supplements to ensure that the baby gets more than enough to be healthy.

Sometimes, what your body is lacking may not be the problem at all; sometimes, the problem may have to do with what your body has that it shouldn't. Many women enjoy recreational activities that involve harmful substances, such as alcohol and tobacco, while others may be taking powerful medications that were prescribed to them by a physician. All of these things can have incredibly negative effects on your child, and as long as you are unaware of your pregnancy, you will not know to stop using them.

Of course, financial preparedness is a very important thing when it comes to raising children, because a lack of a decent income can lead to both mother and child missing out on some of life's necessities. One of the most frightening things for some mothers is to become pregnant and have no idea of how they will financially support the baby for the next eighteen years or more.

The reality of the matter is that unplanned pregnancies can be very bad for both mother and baby, so it is important for women to take better precautions when they are being sexually active. Unless you want to request for someone to "adopt my baby," or even worse, "save my baby," don't let yourself become a mother by surprise.
