Xui answered Thursday September 8 2011, 10:22 pm: Trying to give yourself a miscarriage can not only harm the baby but she is putting herself in harms way. This is by far the stupidest way of trying to prevent pregnancy. Like I previously told you before if she didn't want a baby you two should of used precaution to prevent it from happening. Clearly, Your girlfriend isn't ready to be a parent she is not financially nor mentally ready. If you want to help her then sit down with her and suggest she stop trying to harm herself and the child and to consider adoption. That is probably the best thing for the baby and the both of you.

The reason that women aren't suppose to do heavy lifting while they're pregnant is because their ligaments are very loose during pregnancy so they can easily hurt themselves.
Regardless, its NOT ok for your girlfriend to try to give herself an "at home" abortion or miscarriage or whatever you want to call it. She needs to be seen by a doctor to discuss her options. Because she is over 14 she should be able to seek medical help without the consent of her parents, I believe. Please don't let her do this. That's your baby too and you have a say in what happens to it.
She really should tell her mother but if she refuses please ask your father to help guide you both in figuring out all your options. Like I already said though, please tell her to go to the doctor right away to have an exam. Don't let her hurt herself. [ Kylie0528's advice column | Ask Kylie0528 A Question ]
