A friend of mine is pregnant. How can I help her?

The best gift a human possesses is listening. Also, being concerned and asking questions about her day and what not helps too. Take her out to eat too! Pregnant ladies need the food and she'll appreciate it to the fullest. Most pregnant girls have ridiculous eating habits as in they eat, eat, eat all the time. I don't even know any pregnant people but I've learned some things along the way. I hope I helped in some way. Merry Christmas!

Well first to me a child is a blessing so she should try and keep this baby. If she chooses not to she might regret for the rest of her life. But I would talk to someone on campus about it and see where she can get asstiance for medical and so forth. Also even though she is young she can still finish school and be a mom, it will be hard but in the long run she will have more respect for herself and others. This is what I would do. I had children very young and I know how it feels to think what am I gonna do? I hope this helps. And for you be there no matter what foor your friend and be her rock.

I guess you would have to convince her to tell her parents because if she does not plan to tell her parents they would eventually know it in time. I guess its better to tell them while it is still early so that they would have time to think about that and maybe they could accept the situation much earlier. I think the most support she would really need from are those from her family more than her friends.

Well, the best thing you can do is to be there for your friend.. i mean listen and convince her to tell her parents when she's ready.. give her advices that will enlighten her mind.. tell her that think of the baby as a wonderful blessing..

i am 21 old . now many of my studens have their childrens. but unfortunely one of my stuedent was devoice .but i do not how to do can you give me a good advise.

All you need to do to her is give advices. Give her strength so she would not be worried. Be with her always when times in need. Tell her not to hide the pregnancy. That would not be healthy for her. Don't make her sad. I guess that's the best way we could help to them. Our assistance with them.:)

Perhaps she needs to consider these: 1. Is she willing to tell the father of the baby about this? Is he going to be responsible in this? 2. If he is not going to be responsible, what is she going to do with the baby? Is she going to take care of the baby or do an abortion. 3. How is she going to take care of the baby? Is her family supporting her? Is she continue studying while she's pregnant or stop studying for a year? Think properly before making any decisions, of course, the decisions should be made by herself. Also, at this moment, she needs to take care of her health, as she may feel sickness when she's pregnant. Rest more and try to be relaxed, though the situation doesn't seem to be good, she needs to take care of herself, otherwise it'll be bad for her health. Try to be beside her always, and talk to her or listen to her always, to make her feel there are still friends concerning about her.

I think that the only thing that you can really do is to just be there for her, as I'm sure she could use a friend right now, for moral support and such. Be there for her, listen to what she has to say, ... Being pregnant as well as being in college probably isn't something that she would want. Being a female college student, being pregnant is definitely not something that I would want, as the present moment isn't the ideal moment to have kids for either myself and my fiance. That's really the only advice I can really give. To just be there for her, be there for support, and such. I'm sure she could use a friend right about now.

I have to agree with Sheepie, the best thing that you can do is to be supportive of your friend and let her decide what she wants to do. Whatever her decision is, you should stand by her and give her as much of your time and attention that you can. This is a very difficult time for her so it's good that she has a caring friend who she can turn to.

Well, I think it is very important for you to understand that this is not your problem and therefore you really can not make any decisions for this girl. She has her own morals and her own ideas of what she will think is best for her. The best thing you can do is help her research anything she will need to before making her decision, and when she does, you should support her even if you do not agree with what she decides to do. She can have this baby, keep it, give it up, abort it. You really can't help her decide because it's something she has to deal with on her own. As an adult now she has her problem, and it is nobody else's. It's just not your problem. She is going to have to deal with it in the best way that she can. There is no right or wrong answer.

You can take her to a doctor whom you know very well,if she is pregnant just recently then doctors will ensure to give some pills or a small operation to get rid of that. Console her saying that things like that do happen sometimes and must be careful next time onwards at the same time. It is a very sensitive issue to be dealt by anyone however close you may be. Educate your friend not to do like this next time and the side effects of consuming pills whenever this kind of thing happens. take the advice of a doctor as early as possible after which no one can't help in anyway.

I think you should probably offer to be her midwife. I've heard pregnant chicks love that!
