Okay well my cousin is 23 and pregnant.
Like 5months ago she was in the hospital and was really sick, the doctors kept her there for like two weeks running tests on her and the results for it all was her liver was killing her body, they told her she was going to die from it. well like 3months ago she went to the doctors and they said she was doing better now.
Well now this month she went to the doctors and found out she is 2months pregnant, she was told she is high risk and with her being sick she is even more high risk. when she found out she was prenant she moved in with me so that I could watch her and her babys health and help take care of her, because the doctors are saying she shouldnt work and her ex boyfriend isnt going to be there to help. well anyways she is so worried for her babys health and im scared for her and her babys health.
Do you think that with all her health problems it could be possible that she will lose her baby?
even in a perfectly healthy woman it is possible to lose a baby but if you worry about it too much you could stress yourself into miscarriage. the best thing you could do for your cousin is to reassure her and let her know everything will be ok and if the worst happens then be there for her to help her through the pain. I have had one miscarriage and I am a relatively healthy person but I am not saying that just because she is sick she will lose the baby I am saying that I have seen women right after going through chemo have very healthy babies so health of the mother can be misleading in this way. so for now hold your cousins hand during the morning sickness and pray for the birth of a healthy baby. :)

Ashley, I'm glad to hear that you are supporting your cousin as it can be very scary and hard to be pregnant and single like that, especially if you have health issues like she was reporting. How are things progressing with her pregnancy, aside from her liver problems? Do you know specifically what the problem she had with her liver is? It might help to know so that one of us can research what the issue is and potential complications in pregnancy. I think that what you are doing is very kind and helpful, so keep us posted okay?

Well See When My cousin was younger she drink like it was nothingg, so all the drinking she did caught up with her and her liver started to fail and the doctors said all the stuff she was putting into her body was killing and that her liver was starting to slowly kill off the rest of her body, so she stopped drinking and hasnt had a drop since like nov. 2008 But all her problems started because she was just not making good Decisions.
As for the baby so far everything is fine, She's alil over 8 weeks along & because of health issuses shes on bed rest until babys born.
Father isnt really helping, but as for her and the baby we are doing all that we can, & just hope N for a healthy baby

Hi Ashely, it's a shame to hear that the dad isn't really helping out and that sort of thing is always sad to hear, but at least she's doing well. AT least she has your support and that helps out quite a bit! I'm glad to hear that she's really started to turn her life around. What do you think caused her to stop? Was it going to the doctor or was it your support?

Honestly I think it was the doctor looking at her and telling her if you don't stop your gonna die.

That has to be harsh but there is such a thing as tough love to help someone turn their life around. Thanks for sharing your perspective and let me know if you have anything else to say about okay? :)
