is it a sign ? advise please

After a crazy last week I decided to take a pregnancy test and I ended up being 5 weeks pregnant. I took the day after pill appropriately and I still ended up pregnant. I have took it before, a while back, and it never failed. Why now? Well this is my question. My dad was diagnosed with liver cancer earlier this year. I haven't told my parents that their 21 yr old daughter is having a baby. I was talking to my mom about ny dad and I just found out that the cancer grew to another dangerous spot and if M.D. Anderson can't control it he only has less than a year. We are still waiting for another operation appt.. Yes sad news my dad is my foundation I love him very much. But is this a sign from god that this happen for a reason ? Please I just need to hear good news. I feel like I'm already disappointing him by being pregnant. :(

I would definitly say its a blessing. It will give your father something positive to look foward to. I would tell them and not waste another minute wondering what to do. The morning after pill has a failure rate just like any other kind of birth control (even though its not bc) But Im a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Best of luck to you and your family.

Oh my gollie this happened to me, you are not alone. I was on the pill religiously and it failed.  I told my mum straight away but that's because we have that relationship. A new addition to the family might be the distraction your family needs. Its new life and hopefully will bring some happiness in such a stressful time. Good luck and best wishes.

I thought my mom was going to be disappointed in me, cuz I was 21 years old when I got pregnant. [Im now 4 months along && just turned 22.] Shes my biggest support system now. Just be honest with them. they may freak out at first, but it is to be expected. trust me, they'll come around.
