How should I tell My Mom I'm pregnant! Posted: 07-20-03 23:55pm
I am only 16 years old, and I am 5 weeks
pregnant. My now exboyfriend, and the
father of my baby broke up with me when I
told him that my period was late .
I am so scared! I have no clue how to tell
my mom! I am so scared about how she will
react. No matter what she says or does I
will not have an abortion or give my baby
up for adoption though. If anyone could
give me some ways to break the news to my
mom.. that would help me out soo much!
Thanx.

You need to sit down with her like an
adult and talk with her heart to heart.
You may want to make sure that she does
not have to be anywhere so that she can
give you her undivided attention. It may
be a shock to her at first, but it is
better to be honest and tell her how you
feel. All you can do from that point on
is what is best for you and your baby. I
commend you on taking a stand for not
giving your baby up and especially for not
having an abortion! Hope this helps...

Hang in There!! Posted: 07-21-03 21:02pm
I know this is probably a very scary time
for you right now. I am 16 and I have been
thinking about what I would tell my mom if
I got pregnant anytime soon...and I could
never think of anything. I am also 16 and
even though the thought of having a baby
is great, I know my mom and my family will
not approve. But be honnest with you mom,
and tell her straight up. Explain to her
what you want from her (obviously her
support). And a mother is supposed to be
there for you always...so tell her that. I
just wish you the best of luck with your
mom and your new baby. But just
remember..it will take your mom a little
while until she gets used to the
situation...but hang in there and things
will be fine!! Let me know how it goes

I am there with you girl Posted: 07-21-03 23:52pm
I am a 17 year old female that is 3 months
pregnant and no one knows not even my
boyfriend. I am also going off to college
but I will have to tell my boyfriend soon.
Because I'm sure he will start to notice
to plumpness of the belly. But I'm just
going to lay it out there and if they
don't like what I want to do then fine
they will come around.
it will be okay just stay away from spicy
food!!!!

I completely understand what you are going
through. I am 19 years old and don't live
at home but I am afraid of the
disappointment I will get from my parents
especially since me and my boyfriend just
broke up a week ago. We dated for 14
months and it finally ended. He knows but
he says it is my responsibility to tell my
parents and I don't know how to have the
words come out. I think them and say them
in my head but they never come out loud
enough.
