advice...

Well theres not a not alot she can do but wait. I would tell her not to worry her symptoms could be from stress. Me and my husband have three daughters and every time I got pregnant my symptoms were different one time I'd throw up everything the next I would be fine. She may be worring for nothing the best thing you can do is be there for her be her friend and give her the suppport she needs and when she finds out for sure countinueto show you care and support her. You sound like good friend. And tell your friend good luck.

yea I hope its stress because she is only 15 so she is really freaking out about it. But thanks I will tell her to just try and take it east and try not to think about it. Thanks! I try to be a good friend.

She probally has nothing to worry about. And for her sake I pray she is not pregnant but if she is I am glad to know she has a friend she can turn to in her time of need. I'm sure she will be fine but this is gonna be a huge scare for her and a long couple of weeks so just try to keep her calm and her mind off it until she can find out for sure. Keep me posted on how shes doing.

tears, If she is two weeks late already, she can take an EPT (Early Pregnancy Test) now. You can buy them anywhere: Walmart, any drug store, the grocery store, etc. There are some EPT's that allow you to test even a week before you miss your period. A note of caution on them: if they turn up positive, it's a pretty sure bet (99.99%) that it's correct. If they turn up negative, they could still be wrong--a negative could just mean that the pregnancy hormone in her body hasn't built up enough to be detected by a test. So, if it turns out positive, she should make an obstetrician appointment right away. If it turns up negative, and she continues to have symptoms, and still doesn't get her period, she should try retesting in a few weeks. If she then gets another negative, but still isn't feeling well and still doesn't have her period, she should go to the doctor, to see if something else might be wrong. HTH. Nicole

I agree with Nicole about the early pregnancy test except for one thing. If she gets a negative, try a different brand of test or even a second one of the same brand. Sometimes, there is an unknown problem with the chemicals in the test that causes a false negative. Also, when she is (or you are) in the pharmacy picking out the test, be sure to check for the expiration date on the box and don't buy anything that is even near that date. False negatives are more likely with older tests. If she's really upset, she could always head straight to the doctor for a serum (blood) test. If she sounds paniced enough, they should be able to get her in quickly. Remind her that even if the test is positive, that life will go on. No matter what she decides about the cluster of cells that might become a baby (abortion, adoption, parenting), she can get through it.

Good points ellemeth, glad you brought those up.

OK so its early enough to have her take the test then? ok well ill call her and ask her what she wants to do. Maybe tomorrow we can go buy a test and she can see if she is.Like then should we buy like maybe 2 then just in case??

It's up to you, tears... I've always bought two or three different brands at the same time, just to be sure.... both times I was pregnant, the very first one I used came out positive. The first time I was pregnant, I STILL re-tested with the other brand. (I didn't want to be pregnant that first time.) It came out positive, too. Second time, the first test came out positive, and I just accepted that one as being good enough. (Like I said, a positive is a pretty darn sure thing.) However, I have tested in the past and gotten a negative, and those times I ALWAYS did another test, just to be sure, for the reasons ellemeth mentioned. They are sorta expensive (well, I think they are), though: I think around $7-$9 each..... So it's really up to you and your friend. The tests usually come with two per pack, but that's not much help, because what you really want, if you want to double-check, is two entirely different brands. (((Hugs))). I hope things turn out ok.

Ok so then you would recommend 2 or 3 different brands. ok well yea for sure I have to ask her and all that and make sure she even wants to test right now. Thank you so much!! I hope things turn out ok too..

well she took 2 tests today. they were both possitive:( So later today she is going to go to the doctor to get checked out. But thanks for the advice!! I am going to just try and be a good friend for her. Help her out as much as she needs.But now shes talking about aborting but im trying to lean her towards adoption or keeping it. Her parents are like trying to force her to abort too but its up to her. Ok well thanks again

Oh, tears... I'm so sorry. You sound like you're being a good friend. Hang in there. ((Hugs)) to you and your friend.
