Default Being there for friends

My friend told me she may be pregnat a few weeks ago, i told her id buy her a preg test and we would find out... she had spotting and was really worried, she was very late and had a very light/un-normal cycle, she didnt tell the guy she was with but he took off anyway to get with another girl so that didnt help.... anyway she finally got to take the pregnacy test today and its come up with a very very faint like hard to see postitive, she would only be 6ish weeks along so should it be a darker line? Should she take anoter test or go to a doctor? She is really scared and doesnt have anyone else but me to talk to... I have no experience with any of this and am trying to help her as much as i can
Any advice i should give her?

Please no she should of been more responsible ect as she already knows it...

I think that the best thing to do is go to a doctor. The tests are more reliable than some of the home pregnancy tests. And if she is pregnant then i think, telling her parents and the boy she is pregnant by would be a good option, (assuming that the relationship with them is good).

usually any line even faint is a positive.. she should go to the doctor to find out forsure. there should be some planned parenting place or health dept. where ya'll live that will see or for free or a small fee and it will be kept confidential even from parents and the place can help point u in the best direction.

i was the only one my best friend had when she was pregnant.. best advice just be there for her

Thanks for the advice guys, She is not really close to her parents, she has been to boarding school for the last 6 years so doesnt see them much, she also has very high expectations set for her so she is really scared to even talk to her parents as she doesnt want to let them down. The guy has walked off and refuses to even talk to her but we are working on that so fingers crossed he will actually come around....

We live in the country about 200km to the closest hospital but we were thinking of going to our local doctors in 2-4 weeks time if we can get an appointment thats if i can convice her to actually come, she is in denial of anything atm but i think it would be best just to go and make sure...

I agree you should definitely see the doctor. Make an appointment then try to get her to go- if she refuses then you can cancel the appointment but definitely make one for as soon as possible early pregnancy is the most important time she will need to get vitamins and all that stuff.

Just be there for your friend.

Yes, she should go see a doctor. Remaining in denial and ignoring the situation isn't going to make it go away. It's only going to make it worse. She's going to need a good support system during her pregnancy, so the earlier someone knows, the better. She'll also want to start discussing her options.
