Helpful information to understand women’s health.

You are not alone in this situation. The two of you can get through this. She needs you now more than ever. It’s vitally important that you provide her with the support she needs –emotionally and physically. Here are some tips on how you do this.
What to do:

Talk with her and listen to her. Keep the lines of communication open between the two of you at all times. DO NOT close yourself off emotionally because this situation involves more than just you!

Be there for her. She needs you now more than ever before.

Talk with the people who care. In addition to keeping the lines of communication open between the two of you, it’s important to discuss the situation with parents and others who’ll be directly affected. Keeping this a secret will only add to the stress – yours and hers.

Educate yourself. Collect information and seek advice from people you trust.

Be honest with her and yourself. Own and share at all times how you feel. You’ll be surprised at how much it will help her to know that you share the same concerns. You’ll be surprised at what you learn about yourself. And you’ll be proud that you’re standing tall together!

What Not To Do:

This life is a gift and can create wonderful opportunities for you and your baby. Allow us to help you make the right decision for you, your baby, and the mother of your baby.

Here’s how you can help your friend, family member or girlfriend know she’s not alone:
“I’m pregnant…”
How will you react when your friend finds out she’s pregnant?

An unplanned pregnancy can be scary. She needs to know she is not alone. She can get through this, and you will be there to help along the way.

What to do:
  • Talk with her and listen to her. Ask her how she’s feeling and listen for ways you can help. Be there for her. Sometimes, the best way to help is to just be with her.
  • Talk with the people who care for her. Offer to help her tell her parents, the child’s father, or other family members who need to know she’s pregnant. Listen for ways you can help her think through whom to tell and when.
  • Learn about where she can go for help during her unplanned pregnancy. She has options, and there are organizations near her that can help. You can find those on OptionLine.org and even help her make an appointment.
What Not To Do:
  • Don’t shame her. She may already feel guilty, embarrassed, or ashamed. Be a safe person for her. Stay positive and encouraging!
  • Don’t pressure her. You may know what you would do if you were in her shoes, but she is the one who needs to decide. She has choices to make, and she needs to know you’ll be with her no matter what.
  • Don’t cut her off. Most women and girls with unplanned pregnancies already feel alone. Make sure she knows you’ll stay with her—and listen to her—no matter what.
