don't hide it.
the longer you hide it the harder it
gets.
for your health and for your baby you need
to get medical assistance during your
pregnancy.
you need ultrasounds and stuff to make
sure everything is OK.
sure she will be disappointed to begin
with but most parents come round given a
bit of time.
The sooner you tell your mom the sooner
she can help you get stuff sorted out like
doctors visits.

Sweetie, you need to at least be seen by
a doctor. You need all the support you can
get at this point.
Have you taken a pregnancy test? Are you
sure you are pregnant? Start with planned
parenthood - it is free and they will not
tell your mom! They can help you with your
next steps.
Good luck!

Go to planned parenthood ..Everything
between you and the doctor is confidential
and it is against the law for him to tell
your mom anything. I agree with Kia
though..the longer you wait the harder it
will be. The baby isnt going anywhere and
your mom will learn to accept it.. My mom
always told me shed be more hurt if she
felt i couldnt trust her enough to come to
her with it. It may take her some time
but babies are wonderful and you have to
tell her.. Hiding it will only make it
worse and hurt your baby. You need to
start thinking like a mommy now and what
is best for your child.

Do not try and hide it! I'm 15 and 33
weeks pregnant and believe me it's easier
to tell them sooner rather than later,
your parents will understandably be angry
but it *will* pass. Good luck

Hiya babe, I know you must be scared of
telling your mum, and I think all us teen
mums to be feel that way but like Danni
said, it not as easy to hide as you think.
I'm 15 also and 21 weeks pregnant,
carrying my little girl and trust me the
sooner the better. I'm lucky as I have a
fantastic mum and she is only 35 so she
understood and I know this isn't always
the case with some girls but I know it
would be better to tell your mum soon.
Congratulations on your pregnancy,
carrying your own child is so special and
I'm sure you'll know what I mean in time.

Hey there I was so scared to tell my mom I
didn't want to disappoint her I am
terrified of disappointment. Yet, I did it
anyways. But if you tell her sooner you
can talk to her about all the questions
you have. You can talk to her if your
scared, ya know that way you don't have to
talk to someone your not as comfortable
with. You still can by all means. But some
things are easier to talk about to your
mom. At least in my opinion. you can pm me
if you want.
