Hi Emily,
I am glad you are looking for support. I am so happy that you are choosing life. Whether you keep the baby or adopt, that is a major decision for you. There are a lot of support centers and a good place to look is www.pregnancycenters.org. They can help you with:
Pregnancy Testing
Counseling
Non-diagnostic Ultrasounds to confirm pregnancy
Resources and Referrals to community organizations
I think this will be a good place to start. It sounds like your mom is coming around and may become more involved. In regards to your family and the fact that they are religious, I'm sure they will understand and help you in this too. You would be amazed as to how many people have had unexpected pregnancies. I hope you will find them to be understanding. Once they get over the shock, I think they will want to support you. Let us know how you are doing. God bless you!
Prayerfully,
Alise
