Well I jst found out a cuple of weeks ago
that im expecting. I am not 6 weeks gone.
Ive been to the doctors twice and told my
bf and hes very supportive even tho hes
still at school. I havent told my parents
yet but will do wen I pluck up the
courage. I know im going to keep the baby
but im so scared when the baby comes. Im
only 16 and wanted 2 go 2 college and
study childcare. It was only a small
mistake that happened as I was on the
pill. Im jst so scared and need some
major advice please. Help

Hi, I was 16 too when I got pregnant, im
17 now and 7 months gone. Its good your
boyfriend is committed to this, as long as
you have someone supporting you, you'll be
okay. I was really scared to tell my
parents aswell, hope that goes well.
Goodluck

Um I dont think you would want to know.
And I dont want to scare you even more
about it, your parents may react totally
different to how mine did. Honestly
though, I didnt tell them face to face, I
made a phone call...And im glad I did it
that way. Sometimes the person you think
will react the worse, actually surprises
you. I would say talk it through with
your boyfriend, decide which way you think
is best to tell your parents...There's
different ways you could do it, all
depends on how you think they will take
the news.

Yh I guess my bf sed hell tell his mum wen
the times right. I mean hes got the easy
job as she cant really critisice him as
she had him at 17 so shes a young mum.
Whereas my parents r older n my dads
really old fashioned. If I werent so
scared of my dad I wuda told my mum
straighy away. I guess I ave 2 find the
right place and moment aswell. Wish me gd
luck (scared)

Hey gurl. I know its going to be
hard....But my best friend was pregnanate
@ 16. She lived a very "picture pefect
life" her parents cared more about their
name then their kids. Well when she
became pregnanate her parents didnt handle
it well because of school situations and
her college dreams. Well mary took it
upon herself *with an unsupportive "sperm
doner" and had her baby and still managed
to go to school & college while living
with only her and her child. She
believed in herself..And she did it. She
finished highschool... Shes currently in
her last year of college living with her
son..And working. Its hard..But you will
gain alot of things gurls your age wont
have...Respect...Stregth..And faith!!!
You can do it if you want to! Just have
faith..And remeber god doesnt give you
anything you cant handle!!!

Hey gurl I told my mom first because I
knew she would understand the most, then I
told one of my sisters and they told my
other sisters and then they told my
dad(the one I was scared of). He was
upset, but I left him alone for a couple
of days and then I went to talk to him
about it,and now he is helping me shop for
baby stuff and telling me about how much
fun its going to be when the baby comes.
So just telll them and give them some time
to get over the shock, they will
eventually come around and everything will
be ok.

That's good your parents are taking it so
well. Don't you have to be 18 to get a
council flat/house?

I know how u feel I was really scared how
my parents would react so I did it over
the fone. It was much easier. I was
surprised how they reacted. I thought
theyd go mad but they were really
supportive. The thing evry1 was sayin was
that I had 2 tell them sooner or l8r wich
made things even scarier. Do it in ur own
time and I hope things go well for u
isabel. There r loads of pple on ere who
give loads of support. Pm me some time if
u want to talk
good luck and best wishes xxx

Here's a thought, stop spreading your
legs.
