Hi everyone! I'm new to this, but
hopefully someone on here can give me some
advice. I'm a 17yr old sophomore
psychology major. Last month I had
unprotected sex with a guy that I had been
seeing for a minute. A few days later my
period came, but it wasn't like it
normally was. I took 3 pregnancy tests
and they all came back negative. This
month my period was about 3-4 days late
and I decided to take another one today.
I was super surprised when it came back
positive. I have been noticing some
changes in my body and I thought of that
as a possibility about a week ago. Now I
have no idea what to do.
I have overcome sooooo many obstacles and
succeeded. Now I have no idea what to do.
My mother is sooo proud of me and I don't
want to disappoint her. She still thinks
i'm somewhat of a virgin. Growing up
isn't a problem because I did that a long
time ago. My only issue is telling my
mother. She is a single parent and has
done so much for my brother (r.I.P.) and
i. I don't want her to feel like she has
failed, but she does need to know asap. I
wrote a letter, but I don't know if that's
the best way to do it.
My mother has been an excellent example.
Of course i'm going to have to do this
alone because the guy is gone and it's not
worth the stress and aggravation to get
him back.
I need help! If anyone has advice or "two
cents" to offer I will gladly accept it.
It is greatly appreciated!!! Thank you
:-)

If you tell her the news and then back it
up with a plan of action she will see that
you have thought things threw and your
prepared for it
i know that she will want you to finish
school and if you think of how you can
still do that I think she will take the
news better
