How did she get a doctor's appointment so quickly?
Do you think she is being honest?

she had already had a doctors appointment before she told me she was pregnant, but yeah i think she's being honest. she's gained weight and i can tell that she's pregnant, but shes wearing baggy clothes to try to hide it from everyone else. i believe her, im just frustrated because i want to help her and i know she needs to go to the doctor and she isn't

Maybe you could just show up at her house. She obviously needs someone to drag her to the doctor if she isn't doing it herself.
There is a young teenage girl from the town I live in who hid her pregnancy and delivered her baby in the bathroom in the middle of the night all by herself. She wrapped the baby in a towel and hid it in the woods. The baby died and she was at fault and had to go to jail.
Somehow her family didn't even know she was pregnant, but all her friends did. She never had any medical care and her life was ruined because of this. It was very sad.

& now we can work on talking to my mom about her moving in, if so I'll be changing bedrooms & she'll have mine now, because the spare is really small. it's really exciting to think about this.
I just have a feeling she is going to be kicked out, her dad kicked her out when he found out she was dating a black guy, i dont know how he'll react when he finds out that shes not only pregnant, but almost 30 weeks pregnant with a black boys baby. (i have nothing against it, but he does)

I would love to!
another thing though, just my personal opinion, i'm not going to interfere with this, but her boyfriend needs a real butt kicking. he told me today, that even if he didnt have to work today, he wouldnt have gone to the doctor with her because he'd rather stay home and sleep. she told me he's mad that she's pregnant because he's not ready and he wants to go to college, and that he blows all of his money and doesn't give her any to save, even though she's got 2 jobs saving for her.
he's in lots of my classes, super immature.

Tell him his choice not to get pregnant should have been made months ago.
She needs to get some insurance (medicaid). She can go to the local DSHS office with her birth certificate and social security card. They can tell her what programs she qualifies for. The local health department will have information on WIC.
