Keep on being her best friend no matter what. This is going to be soooooooooooooo hard on her. Emotionally and physcially. Try to help her do exactly what she's supposed to do also to take care of her baby. If they doctor says "no french fries" then don't eat fries in front of her. If they say "no stress" then try to keep things as stress free as possible. Right now she needs friendship more than anything.

Is she planning on keeping the baby? Has she considered abortion and adoption? Do her parents know? If she keeps it, do they plan on helping her?
Having a baby will change her life forever, and fourteen is SO young. How far along is she?
I have never met a fourteen year old that could truly be a great parent. I do know a couple that have done the best that they can, but it's an extremely difficult thing to be pregnant so young, give birth so young, and then try to finish high school while trying to provide for a baby.
Keep being her friend, and know that she can get very emotional with all the crazy hormones going through her body right now. She needs all the support she can get. Being honest with her is also what she needs, don't just tell her what she wants to hear.

Do the girl's parents know she is pregnant or is she hiding it, still?
Your friend needs to be seeing a doctor, on a regular basis.
Your friend should consider adoption as an option. She can live at a maternity home, until the baby is born, at no cost to her.
While she is at the home, she will meet other young girls. She will become friends with them, and share their experiences which will be great support.
If adoption is not an option, hopefully, a parent will be taking care of the infant for her.

You're doing it right now by being her friend and looking out for her. If she's going to keep the baby she'll need the support of other mothers and networks most. If she's going to adopt out the baby there are tons of options out there and families, agencies and organizations that will give her everything she needs. There are soooo many loving families waiting to adopt a baby, I know because we're one of them! If she doesn't want to keep the pregnancy she should make that decision right away because the longer she waits the more painful the process physically and emotionally. She can contact planned parenthood at 800-230-plan for more info. good luck to you both!

I cant believe people actually said get pregnant with her!!!!!! OMG - please dont take that advice. Just stick by your friend, she will need your support every step of the way. And learn from her - having a child at any age changes your life forever, but at 14? Wow. She is so lucky to have a friend that is there and willing to help. God bless you and your friend.

Besides being there to talk her through all the looks and teasing from other kids, help her with getting homework if she needs it especially if she gets sick. Being pregnant is no picnic and can put a lot of wear and tear on her body. Read about pregnancy and childbirth yourself so you know what she is talking about and/or you can ask her intelligent questions about her health. Offer to do things for her like getting or helping with homework or going with her to her doctor's visits or Lamaze classes.

OK, this is going to be so difficult for your friend. Right now, what she needs most is people who she can rely on.... I mean, her hormones will be running wild, and her parents wont be too happy. Just let her know that you will be there for her and don't turn your back on her. She is going through a very tough situation right now, and she needs you.
