  • Tell her...she might be mad but she'll come around
  • Your gonna have to tell her sooner or later, might us well.. Good Luck!!
  • Yes, they may be angry at first, but they'll never hate you. It's just as scary for parents as it is for you & I don't know any parent that WANTS their 18 year old to get pregnant.
  • Agree with comments above. Be strong, know that you have had a little time to come to terms, they will need a minute too. But the longer you hold back, the more betrayed they will feel. Wish you all the best and sending you strong vibes!
  • I would tell them too. My sister in law was 17 and they told by both sitting the parents down and talking to them.. if ur parents are confrontational then go eat dinner
  • I was 18 hiding my pregnancy from my mom. @ 6 months my bf (now ex hubbie) got fed up and told her while I was outside. She shocked me by hugging me ect. Was more concerned we didnt have that kind of relationship! All she said was finish school lol which I did!! Good luck!!
  • Im 17 nd 27 weeks. I'm not juts gonna say do it like its easy. But it has to be done. Just think of your babys health nd do it. :)
  • It is always hard for any unexpected pregnancy. Tell your parents its better than finding out from someone else. I am 20 and had a hard time telling my mom. But she has been super supportive. We didn't find out until 4.5 months though. Lol they may be upset but you gotta do it it will be worse if you wait.
  • I'm 24 and don't even live in the same state as my parent and don't want to tell them till 6 months... but everyone says I should tell them now... just trying to avoid drama!!
  • Parents are human they understand they always want what's best for us but I promise you they will come around its just going to take time
  • I just told my parents and they were upset at first now tgeir making plans for baby lol who knows they might surprise you
  • Wit my first I was 17....I'm.now 24 n jus told them.a week ago n I was more afraid this time around. They were disappointed but at the end ur still their child n they will still love u no matter what. Try not to stress. Do it wn u feel OS right but don't wait too long.
