If the concern is that of not being ready to be a parent, there's no reason for her to be panicking. First, there's the option of abortion, which in the first trimester is legal, readily available, and quite safe. Those who have a moral objection to abortion have the option of adoption, which is free, and often adoptive parents or adoption brokers will pay all of the woman's medical expenses during the pregnancy. Giving birth to a child does not mean you have to raise it, and there are thousands of infertile couples out there who would be happy to take in an unwanted newborn and give her a good family that wants and loves her.
This isn't the 1950's; an unwanted pregnancy won't ruin your life plans unless you decide to let it.
