  • How old are u???? I think u should go head and tell em sit em both down and just tell em
  • I just turned 18 in
    Dec
  • Ill be 18 in april and my baby will be born in august. Just tell then face to face thats forsure. Maybe whayever parent your closest to first so they can help you tell everyone else. After the initial shock and disapointment they will come around.
  • I'm not close with either one of my parents and was very afraid to tell them, but i told my mom thru a text message and told my dad over the phone. And now they are being very supportive of me. I thought my mom would kick me out but she wasn't even mad and now we are closer.
  • I mean just tell em..ur grown now so they should just except it...u neva kno how things mitre go so just let em kno...I gave my pregnancy test to my mom in a card dat said congrats ur a grandma
  • I'm 19 and just found out I'm pregnant..and have the same problem..
  • I told my mom who I have always been close with and she kinda freaked out! Not to scare you but sometimes the initial reaction sucks! My feelings were so hurt and I felt like I wasn't even dealing with my family! On the up side after about 2 weeks she started to warm up to the idea and now she calls me daily for updates! It made me so sad at first but remember give them time if they freak out at first! I think the whole my baby is having a baby thing freaks parents out! Good luck I'm sure it will all work out for you! And defiantly tell them face to face. Don't be discouraged this is the choice you made and stand firm on that! Good luck!
  • Im moving out in three dayz. Should i just tell them after?
  • I never got to tell my mom...I made the mistake of telling my brother...so he told my mom because his girl was pregnant too and he didn't want her to be mad at him...
  • Be honest I was a teen mom scared to death to tell my.parents but mya mom will not hate u might be upset or dissapointed but at the end they are amazing to have around

    Im 19 the way I told my parents I dont recommend anybody to do it but if yur absolutly terrified to tell them like I was then yu wud.lol.i told my parents through a text.nd It didnt go how I thought it was.but everybodies parents are different.
  • I'm 16. I had to tell my parents. What I did, was sat my mom down(not close to her either) and told her, and of course she immediatly called my dad. I got a stern talking to but told I'd be supported. So, have faith, they still love you, no matter what.
  • I just went to my mom and said I need to tell u something and started crying like a 5 year old and she guessed she was mad for almost 3 months now I'm 7 months and she is so happy to have a grandson on the way
  • Well, I just told my mom...and I did it over the phone. She isn't mad. Just a lil disappointed. You'll feel a hell of a lot better after you tell her. Believe me. Its gonna be tough but girl ya gotta do what ya gotta do.
  • me and mom havent talked for 2 years. im 20 but just turned 20 a month ago. i texted her but no reply. i would rather her be angry then no response at all. my dad was really mean about it at first but now he is happy for grandbaby #11. im his youngest kid out of 5. he takes me to lunch all the time and asks me to call every couple days to let him know how i feel. now my problem is that he and my boyfriend dont get along. my boyfriend doesnt get along with any of my family. but he knows he will have to get passed it.
  • I was scared to death to tell my parents. I sat my mom down first becausw I'm almost the exact same age she was when she got pregnant with me. I was expecting yelling and screaming but she was very calm. She's only upset because she wanted me to do more with my life. But she is helping me so much! She even helped me tell my dad :) I'm sure things will turn out fine for you too! Good luck!!

  • I expected my mom to freak out on me...
    she was the one who put me on the depo shot
    but I sat her down and had our family friend there just in case.
    I didnt know forsure
    so she just said we will go to the doctor
    She was a teen mom herself so she was a little bit understanding
    but then angry because I seen first hand on how hard it is
  • I think the earlier you tell your parents the better, it gets rid of the nervous scared feeling in ur tummy (i know i had that). I was with my sister when i did the tests and when i found out i told my mom for a cuple of days that i still hadnt come on so she kinda guessed so when i told her she wasnt as shockd because she had suspicion anyway, n she told my dad, he was bit miffed at first but he came round
  • Im 19 ill b 20 in july & I just found out sunday march 6 2011. I'm pregnant and went to the doctor yesterday to make sure and guess wat I Am. Im 4wks. I live wit my boyfriend and his family because I work 5 mins from his home, but im scared to tell his mother & mine as well. I scared his ma will put me out but then again idk cause we r super close. & my mother we r ok but I kno she goin to try and talk me into abortion because she did that to my older sister & im the youngest. But i dnr wnt one. WAT SHOULD I DO?
  • earlier you tell your mom the better. but i'd tell your mom before anyone else so she doesn't feel as if she hasn't been included, and worst of all!!! - don't let your parents find out from other people.
  • I was a teen mom myself. Times two! When my daughter was 9 months old I found out I was 3 months pregnant again! Birth control didn't do it apparently. But with number 1 I was scared to death as well. But my bf and I were wanting to get married a few years later, we just had to move it up a few years earlier! So we sat down with my parents and said "we're getting married".....and "we're expecting our first baby also" my mom cried, yelled and eventually sucked it up. My dad, well he is a cop, I'm his only little girl and he thought we were joking.
  • I'm 27yo and found out in november. Me and my boyfriend told his mom on christmas! I thought she would be mad, but she has been really suportive. My family on the other hand I'm still scared to tell them. They have this way of making me feel like crap. With my first child they were angry second child even angrier, so I'm not sure if I even want to say anything this time around. I love my family but I don't need people making me more stressed then I am. Thankfully they live two hours away and never really come see me except on holidays. So.. I dunno. Maybe ill just show up and tell them maybe not. The decision is entirely up to you. Most peoples parents get down on them at first but then are supportive. Good luck
  • my mom looked at me with that mean mom look but she was just in shock it was hard to tell her though! all my dad said was "i love babies" hah so that was easy! the hardest was to tell my bf! because it wasnt planned and i thought he was going to be mad and kick me out but he didnt and so far its working out!!
  • Well im 16 and I told my mom I was pregnant about 2 weeks ago. She took it really bad. She screamed at me n even called my baby a bastard. She didnt really mean all of those things n were getting along fine. The first reaction is always the worst. But now my mom is excited n my dad also. My dad is in iraq n cant wait to come. There ur parents n always going to support u :)
  • I'm 19 and I found out yesterday that I was pregnant...
    I'm so deathly afraid of my parents' reaction (i'm asian... Lol the strict parent stereotype is true!) that I'm considering abortion.
    My dad is not one to get mad and then come around... And on top of that, he already thinks i'm a failure. I would definitely lose my whole family's support. I'm deathly afraid and cry everytime I think about having to tell my bf's parents and my parents....
    What do I do?
  • I live with my mom n she's the type to noe when tom(my period) should b coming about, but i was delayed. The following week she took me to get a pregnancy test and it came out positive. She was angry at me and had better hopes. After a while (few weeks) she began accepting the idea i guess because she began worrying and asking questions that relate to the baby. Though she didnt talk to my bf, yesterday was the firat day she did like she used to befre and im 11 weeks now.
  • I told my mom I had something important to tell her. We both kind of stood there looking at each other... My brain was contemplating actually telling her rite then and there. Before I could say another word she goes "YOU'RE PREGNANT!!" I started to cry and she just hugged me... Lol my tears confirmed her guess. She told me that as a mother, she already knew and she was just waiting for me to come to her. My dad and I dnt really associate with one another so my mom told him.... Idk what he said...
