i have a friend , and she believes that
she is pregnant , but she would rather not
go to the doctor to find out for sure if
she is pregnant or not because her mom and
other wouldn't be too happy about it if
they found out they think she is pregnant.
she says that she has taken 4 to 5
pregnancy tests and they all came out
positive. she also says that she cant
sleep at night and she is sick to her
stomach almost constantly. what are your
thoughts on this ? do you think that just
taken a pregnancy test and having them all
say they are positive really means shes
pregant ?

you are more likely to get a false
negative than a false positive...
i suggest getting to a doctor b/c 5
positive HPTs is a pretty sure sign that
she is pregnant
and waiting and not going to the doctor is
not only hurting her it could be
hurting the baby...
you have to have prenatal care during
pregnancy..
but she has choices and if she tells her
parents maybe she can talk through
her choices with them
she is their daughter and they might be
upset at first but, they'll come around
