    Pregnant again!
    My couson is once again pregnant at 15! She lost her baby last time, she was so miserable, but she hopes she can keep this one healthy, she knows as well as I do she will be an awsome mother, she has people to support her, and I am supposed to be the godmother! It is a rape baby, but her ex(there still very close as friends) said he will act as the father. She lives with her mother who is supporting her through it all, I don't no how many weeks(I think maybe 7) but she will not get an abortion.

    But CFS(child family services) are taking her friends baby, can they take hers?


    ... She already said if they take it she will be so sad, she already lost one, I don't want her to lose this one!
    How can I help her go through this, and how can she help not misscarring AGAIN, she is doing everything right, just like the last pregnancy, and I don't what any stupid comments about her age!
    She is mature, she is strong and can get through it I know !:)

    Wow. I would guess that children services doesn't come in and take babies away for no reason other than age. There are a lot of teen pregnancies out there and if that were the case, you would hear about.
    The best way I would advise to keep this child is to be the best mother possible. Do what she can to provide for it. Put the needs of the child first. At her age, that may be a tough one. It's tough for a lot of new moms of any age.

    As far as miscarriage - there is really no way of knowing. Obviously she has to take care of herself. But, if it is going to happen - then it's going to happen. (I know from experience)

    Good Luck to her - she has a tough road ahead.

    I hope she has a healthy pregnancy. NowWhat is right... if a miscarriage is going to happen, it will happen. They can be due to genetic difficulties, hormonal troubles, chemical imbalances, age of the mother, etc.

    CPS do not take children without real cause. No matter how old your friend is, as long as she's not suspected of abuse or neglect, she won't even meet people from that agency. Was her rape reported to the authorities? If so, they may look into her case not because of her baby but because she's a minor and they would be concerned with HER safety.

    Has she been to a doctor to confirm her pregnancy? I'm only wondering because girls of 15 don't have completely normal cycles yet.

    Good luck to your friend.
