A positive pregnancy test can bring a lot of thoughts at once, especially if this was not part of your plan. Have a question now? Text a nurse for free at [(815) 559-5722](sms:+18155595722). You do not have to make every decision today. Sometimes the best first step is simply getting clear answers, asking your questions, and making sure your next step feels like your own.   ### How Do I Know If I’m Pregnant? Before making any decisions, start by confirming your pregnancy. Home pregnancy tests can be helpful, but an on-site pregnancy test can give you a clearer next step.1 White Oak Women’s Clinic offers [free pregnancy testing](https://whiteoakwomensclinic.com/free-pregnancy-tests) in a private, supportive setting. If your test is positive, a nurse can talk with you about what to consider next.   ### How Far Along Am I? Knowing how far along you may be can help you understand your pregnancy timeline. Ovulation often happens about two weeks before your next period, but every cycle is different.2, 3 An ultrasound can help you learn more about your pregnancy, including how far along you may be, where the pregnancy is located, and whether it is continuing. White Oak Women’s Clinic offers [free ultrasound services](https://whiteoakwomensclinic.com/free-ultrasound) for eligible patients after a positive pregnancy test.   ## Is Abortion Legal in Illinois?

During your visit, you can ask questions about abortion, pregnancy dating, ultrasound, STI testing, and any concerns you want to talk through privately with a nurse.   #### What If I Feel Unsure?

A nurse can listen, answer what she can, and help you understand what to expect at your appointment.   ## Pregnancy and Abortion Questions If you’re considering abortion, it helps to start with what you can know today: whether you’re pregnant, how far along you may be, where the pregnancy is located, and whether STI testing may be recommended before an abortion decision.
