Supporting My Good Friend During Pregnancy

My friend's pregnancy did not go so well. It was a huge surprise when she discovered that she was pregnant. Initially she was in two minds as she was gravely concerned that she could never return to work if she had the baby. Unfortunately her partner had walked out on her. We talked a lot about the baby and I offered to help her with the baby if she wanted to return to work. We spoke about other aspects which made me realize that having a baby is a huge commitment. There is so much to consider. During the pregnancy my friend was pretty miserable and spent many days doing nothing as she was so sick and fatigued. I tried to get her interested in going shopping for breastfeeding bras and similar items, but she was so ill, she was house-bound. Towards the end of the pregnancy she was a lot brighter and was actually thrilled that she was going to have a baby. Finally the big day came and she had a beautiful baby boy.
