A 3rd year returning Teen Volunteer just informed me she is pregnant.  Has anyone else had this situation and any words of advice?  She is checking w/her ob to make sure she can have the TB skin test (yes, she can) and I have a form letter to be completed by her ob regarding verification to perfom duties & how long. We are a Catholic facility and I do want to provide support but am concerned of interaction & acceptance with fellow teen volunteers. 

I had been reserving my comments because I have never had this situation and didn't really know what I do.  I have been thinking about it though and I think I would accept her into the program.  And if you have babies in your hospital I would put her in that department.  As I thought about this I initially wanted to say "Oh no...don't take her".  But after thinking about it I feel like we have the opportunity to teach her just a little bit about real life before she has to face it head on.
