pregnant friend.
I have 3 pregnant friends and they are all keeping them two of them are 14 and the other is 15. the 14 year olds are good about it and I hope everything turns out great for them.
Yesterday I was with my 15 year old friend whos pregnant and we went to illegals and the guys we were with had some alcohol.
She started to drink some and by the way shes a month and a half pregnant.
I yelled at her and pretty much she pissed me off like I wanted to slap her at the time.
like how could she do that to her kid and everything she said shes keeping it but she does drugs and she drinks alcohol like every night.
So she agreed to not doing anything but earlier she was drunk again and our other friend which she was with called me to go get her because she was like really messed up and she almost got raped and some really bad stuff.
I just really don't know what to do about her because I really want to help and I'm so worried about her I don't want this to go on anymore.
Any ideas?

I was in the same situation once. You need to get her help for that. It's certainly not healthy so if she isn't going to take action after your warning, get an adult.
But tell her doing that can run the risks of mental retardation, premature birth, cystic fibrosis, and other conditions. Warn her that if she doesn't stop the baby will eventually either die or get seriously hurt. You probably told her that but tell her the risks she is putting her baby in. And if she will be that selfish, she can actually go to jail for it. In some peoples' eyes, killing your own baby (in the womb) is murder. So hopefully she sees that.
Though some times your own words won't convince her enough, so get someone you trust and get her help.
I hope everything goes well with you and your friend!

I agree you have to tell someone. Either a counselor, the school nurse, or Child Protective Services. There is no established safe amount of alcohol a pregnant woman can drink. She should not be doing any drugs.
If she's not willing to alter her lifestyle for 34 more weeks, then she probably won't be able to be a responsible parent once the baby comes. She's too self-centered.

Okay, you're 15yr old friend is proving that she is unfit to be a mother. Threaten her. Even if you're going to lose the friendship. IT's better to lose that friendship than have her kill the baby.
Threaten to tell the ocunslor, her mother, whoever that if she doesn't collect herself together and think about the baby form now on, you're going to be forced to tell someone about this. Tell her that she could kill the baby and if that's what she really wants, she should have just gotten an abortion.
