My Friend just found out she is pregnant...

I know how you must feel. I recently found out my niece is pregnant. She is not so young as 17, but still too young in my mind to be taking on the role of motherhood. Plus now I get to be a Great-Aunt at my tender young age! lol I have to laugh it off! There's no help in crying or raging or fussing or fighting. My mom says she already "feels" for this baby even though she's going to be a great-grandma now. I wish my niece had learnt some lessons from our lives, and not made the same mistakes but obviously she didn't. Maybe she needed more guidance and didn't get it, or maybe she would have done that even with extra guidance and advice, we'll never know for sure now. So all we can do is support her and hope for the best. Be sad for your friend, take your time with that, but always be there (and be happy too!) for her when she needs you, and she will need you! Putting on a sad face for her, will only make her feel worse than she probably already does. I don't think there are many 17-year old girls who would be happy in a situation like this, so it is important for you to be a ray of sunshine in her life! Be blessed!

I know how you feel right now but you can't do anything about it now. It already happened and the best thing you can do for your friend is to be supportive with her. Being there for her in times of problems can at least lessen the burden that she's carrying right now. If you want to release all your frustrations, talk to her but don't make her feel so bad. Just make her realize that what she did was not good cause she's still young. I know she really needs all the support and care right now and that's the best thing that you can do. Take care & good luck...

I'm so sorry to here about this. However, these things happen. Like you said, the best thing to do is to support her in whatever her decision is. Sometimes people just don't realize the price they will have to pay for a night of fun. Even when they do, they will still do it if they want to. Just be supportive, and do not let this little bump in her life effect your relationship with her.

well, you know it does happen and it doesn't mean she was really stupid or irresponsible. Yes, it might have been a mistake in timing and all..not using protection, getting careless, etc. but, this does happen. Right now, she needs her friends and family to rally around her and you sound as if you are a great friend and will do just that. She is going to have a tougher time now...more so than you or her other friends with no children. She will need support and love. I am sure she is just as annoyed and disappointed in herself as you are. I know you will support her. :)
