Finding out you’re pregnant is a lot to process on its own. Finding out while you’re between jobs adds a layer of stress that can make it hard to think past this week’s bills, let alone the next nine months.
Anderson Pregnancy Care offers free, confidential appointments so you can get real information and support without worrying about cost. Schedule your appointment to confirm your pregnancy and talk with a caring team member.
First, Learn About Your Pregnancy
Getting a clear picture of your pregnancy is a good place to start. Anderson Pregnancy Care provides free medical-grade pregnancy testing and, once results come back positive, a limited first-trimester ultrasound at no cost. No insurance is required for either. Getting clear, accurate information about how far along you are, where your pregnancy is located, and whether your pregnancy is progressing with a heartbeat gives you facts to plan around rather than guesswork.
Look Into Medicaid and WIC While You Search for Work
Being unemployed doesn’t mean you’re without options for healthcare and food support.
South Carolina’s Medicaid program, Healthy Connections, covers pregnant women with household incomes up to 199% of the federal poverty level, and coverage can begin quickly through presumptive eligibility while your full application is processed. That coverage also extends 12 months after delivery.
The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program can help cover groceries during pregnancy and afterward, and if you already qualify for Medicaid, you likely qualify for WIC automatically. Our client advocates can point you toward the right South Carolina offices to start both applications.
Practical Support for the Weeks Ahead
Money worries don’t stop at healthcare. Anderson Pregnancy Care also offers:
- Prenatal vitamins at no cost
- Baby supplies, including diapers, wipes, and clothing
- Referrals to local housing, utility, and food resources
- Client advocates who can help you think through a budget for the months ahead
One option worth considering is bringing a list of your specific concerns, job search included, to your first appointment. Our advocates work with women in all kinds of financial situations and can point you toward resources you may not know exist.
You Still Have Choices and Support
Even when between jobs, you can confidently choose between parenting, adoption, or abortion. Anderson Pregnancy Care can help you learn about all the resources available to you in a private, judgment-free setting.
While we do not provide or refer for abortions, our team can make sure you have accurate information and essential pregnancy services that safeguard your health, no matter which option you choose.

You don’t have to sort out a job search and a pregnancy at the same time by yourself. Schedule a free, confidential appointment at Anderson Pregnancy Care today.
