Sort through our resources to find everything from signs of pregnancy and local resources right by your campus to tips for balancing college, pregnancy, and parenting.
Can’t find something you need? Email us, and we’ll be right there to help.
Now that you know where to go if a friend tells you she’s pregnant, what should you say?
Don’t Say:
OH MY GOSH! Seriously?!
Are you scared?!
Are you going to keep it?!
You know this is going to make things complicated, right?
Do Say:
How are you feeling?
Have you told anyone about your pregnancy other than me?
Have you taken a pregnancy test at a doctor’s office?
Would you like me
to go with you to your first doctor’s appointment?
If you stay calm and collected, so will she.
Just remember, that even if the news is a little bit shocking, what she really needs is a friend who will be there for her throughout the journey.
So, let her know you’ll be a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, and a friend to walk alongside her!
At Standing With You, we’re here to help YOU stand with HER.
