My friend just found that she is 2 months pregnant. It was an unexpected pregnancy and she is very devastated, depressed, etc. She feels that her life is over and can no longer continue on with higher education, etc. What are some motivational quotes that I can share with her?

“Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.”
"A baby is something you carry inside you for nine months, in your arms for three years and in your heart till the day you die."
"Think of stretch marks as pregnancy service stripes.
"Was it worth it?"
Sorry i dont have a quote but i felt the same way.. and even felt more guilty for feeling that way! It will pass and soon turn to excitement.. good luck and way to be a good friend
Quotes from some stranger is very impersonal.
Tell her something from your heart or nothing at all.
I don’t have any quotes specifically. But she needs to find a friend who is a parent and speak with them. When I look at my beautiful girls, I wouldn’t trade them for anything. Something just happen inside me when I first saw them. When they say, "I love you!"… my heart melts. She will never have another human being love her as much as this baby will. I know many women who have continued their education. It’s all about determination… I, however, decided to stay at home and my girls helped me realize that I was totally going the wrong way with my career. Now I do what I love not what I was told all my life I needed to do. I started my own business with a 4 year old and a 6 month old. Now I have a great cliental and a fulfilled life. She can do this… she can have the best of both worlds… it just takes work, determination, and love.
I was like that, i found out i was pregnant at 19. I thought my life was over and all that. but once she feels the baby moving and when the baby comes her whole life will change.. and for the better i might add
After all those sleepless nights and changing nappies, in the end it’ll be worth it. After she have the baby she can always go back to school and finish her study. I knew this lady she was 70 years old she was starting university. So it’s never too late. I dont have any qoutes for you but, always be there for her.. My family wasnt niether was my friends. so its for the best that you stick by her side no matter what
