24/7, free, confidential hotline for pregnant and new moms in English and Spanish
Pregnancy and a new baby can bring a range of emotions. Many new moms feel overwhelmed, sad, anxious, or exhausted at different times during their pregnancy or after the baby is born.
Sometimes these feelings go away on their own. But if these feelings last for more than two weeks, and make it hard to carry out daily tasks, like caring for themselves or their family, a mom may have perinatal depression or anxiety. These are common and treatable health conditions during or after pregnancy. And that's why a new mom, or those supporting them, should reach out right away for help.

Calling the National Sexual Assault Hotline gives you access to a range of free services including:
Confidential support from a trained staff member

Someone to help you talk through what happened
Local resources that can assist with your next steps toward healing and recovery

The National Sexual Assault Hotline is a safe, confidential service. When you call the hotline, only the first six numbers of the phone number are used to route the call, and your complete phone number is never stored in our system. Most states do have laws that require local staff to contact authorities in certain situations, like if there is a child or vulnerable adult who is in danger.

Each person is on their own journey, and how to come out, or if to come out, is a very individual choice.
Coming out can mean different things to different people. Everything starts with coming out to yourself, and that can take time and support. We are here to provide you with that support. For some people, coming out can also include friends and family. But each person gets to make those choices in their own time.
While we never tell someone whether they should come out, we are here with you to think about those big decisions and to provide the care and safe space you deserve.
WE GOT YOU! WE'RE GLAD YOU FOUND US. NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE ON YOUR JOURNEY, WE ARE HERE FOR YOU.
