520 | |a This study examined the role of friends in the lives of adolescent mothers. A total of 119 mothers, aged 17 and under, were interviewed during their pregnancy and again at 6 months postpartum. Mothers were questioned about their friendship network and their best friends. Mothers completed scales that measured stress and self-esteem. Results indicated that slightly more young mothers reported having no friends at 6 months postpartum than during pregnancy. Respondents felt that their friends were more supportive during their pregnancy than before it, and reported having more parents in their friendship networks at 6 months postpartum than during the pregnancy. Having friends who were also parenting; having supportive friends; and sharing feelings with the best friend were all related to decreased stress and increased self-esteem during the pregnancy and at 6 months postpartum.
