You just need to sit down and talk to
them. Maybe start out telling them that
you're not perfect and you've made a few
mistakes...This isn't saying your child is
a mistake, cause no child is!! Some are
just surprises! but let them know
you made the mistake of having unprotected
sex, if that was the case, or if the
condom broke or the bcp wasn't working,
let them know you made the mistake of
having sex at a young age. I'm sure that
they'll understand!!
Think of the pros and cons of having this
baby or giving it away. See which one
weighs out the best. That might help
more. Or just wait out the pregnancy
till you have the baby and decide then.
Cause maybe once you start feeling the
baby move and see that little one on u/s
you might change you mind and want to keep
it. It might be a hard next few years
for you, but there are 14 year olds that
do do it. And i'm sure that your
parents, if they're not too bad will help
you out tons...But just know that you
shouldn't throw this all on your parents,
because you're old enough to have sex,
you're old enough to deal with the after
math.
good luck to ya hun!! private message me
ifyou want to chat.

is there anyone that can help you tell
them? An aunt, a pastor or a family
friend? You might find it easier if
there's somebody else there. Have you
talked to your doctor? They might help
you tell them too. Usually, parents are
supportive however mad they might be at
first.
I'd suggest counselling to help you think
about what you want to do. If you want to
adopt, get in touch with an adoption
agency (the sooner the better really).
They'll be able to talk you over adoption
laws in your state, and sort out what kind
of adoption you want eg closed or open.
Have you talked to the father about
adoption? He needs to agree in order for
you to adopt. If you need any more info
on adoption pm me and i'll look it up for
you.
Let us know how it goes, and good luck.

Wow hun ur kinda in a tough situation.
But I think you just need to tell your
parents you need to talk to them. Sit
them down and be completely honest.. Tell
them everything. No matter the
consequences they'll help you out somehow.
Then together decide what to do with this
baby. See if your parents will help you
financially, or if it would be better to
give him/her up for adoption. Although
your parents may be very mad at the
moment.. Things will settle down and you
guys will be able to talk about htis
seriously...
Also.. Does the father of the baby know
that ur pregnant?? How does he feel about
it? I think if you are still with the
father of the baby.. His input is also
important because it is his responsibility
as much as yours...
Good luck hun.. Keep us posted

Hey!!! I'm sorry things are so tough for
you right now!!! I have a 15 year old
cousin who is 17 weeks preggy... And now
that her parents know, things are going
fine for her. Do you have a boyfriend who
is willing to stnad by your side? How far
along are you? When I found out I was
preggy, I had my aunt call my mom and tell
her. I was scared of what she might think
or say.... Even though I am 18. She took
it very well actually, she is excited.
Parents never take it the way you think
they will. When I first started having
sex, I wanted to tell my mom so that she
could take me to the doc. So that I could
get on the pill. I wrote her a letter and
gave to it her and asked her to wait and
read it untill I wasn't at home. I went
to stay the night with a friend, and
that's whenb she read it. She called the
doctor and made me a appointment...She
wasn't mad or anything. If I were you I
would have a friend or family memeber tell
ur parents or wirte them a letter. I
think that once you are preggy for a while
and everyting cools off...You will want to
keep ur baby. That's totally up to you
though sweetie!!! Good luck with
everyting and let us know how everything
goes!!!

I'm 14, too. I was preg @ 13 though, I
just turned 13. You just need to tell
them straight up, don't leave anything
out. Your parents will most likely
support you since your so young, so don't
feel afraid! Goodluck!

I am 17 and 26 weeks pregnant. I come
from a very strict up bringing. My
parents are very straight point from a to
b, and hate interuptions and myself
getting pregnant at 17 was an interuption
for them. I told a close family friend
first and he helped me tell my parents.
It was tough for the first few weeks, but
after some serious conversations with
them, they began to understand that not
everything is as simple as black and
white. And even though they did
everything they could to protect me
before, I need them now more than ever.
It will not be the easiest thing you do in
your life, more so probably the toughest,
but they will admire you for your honesty
with them up front, whether they tell you
that or not.
