Hey guys! I'm 17 I'll be 18 in two weeks my fiance and I found out were pregnant 2 weeks ago I believe I'm 5 weeks and 6 days this is based off my last period. How do I tell my parents? My mother and Step father will be very upset should I wait until my birthday or should I tell them now? Please help?!

I found out that I was pregnant with my first son when I was 17. It was hard to tell my mom, and I found out on her birthday... but I couldn't not tell her... she is my best friend.. so I told her and she was upset. But it was better than keeping a secret from her. She would have been more hurt had I not told her.

I'm 18, when I found out I was so scared to tell my parents. It was stressing me out so much because I knew I was gonna disappoint them, my dad especially. but as soon as I told them I felt SO relieved! My advice would to tell them right away because you're just gonna stress more and more if you wait a while to tell them.. and that's not healthy for the baby at all. best of luck. :)

Well I got pregnant for the first time with my 6 year old when I was only 13. I thought my dad was gonna hate me and be mad bit he told me jesus loves me and supports me and he loves my son more than anything in the world. Now I'm 19 and pregnant again. I was scared to tell him this time too even though I live with my fiancee lol again he took it well. Hope that helps a little.

I'm 16 and when I told my mom she was so happy even though me and my boyfriend (we are getting married in two weeks) are young. no matter how hard it can be for a parent to hear the news, they find happiness because babies are truly a blessing. y'all are all ready engaged so that's awesome. y'all are serious and as long as he is gonna stay and help it'll make it all that easy. you were given this baby for a reason :)

Girl you may be 17 but you're engaged to be married they'll get over it two happy things marriage and a baby(: they might be bummed at first but I'm sure it'll change... When I told my mom she started to cry (not happy tears)... But now that I'm almost due she's excited to meet her grandbaby and won't stop buying baby things that say something about grandma on them... What's a number gonna due they won't be anymore bummed if you're 17 compared to 18? Tell them and get it over with. congratulations and good luck (:

I wasnt living with my mom I was actually staying with my boyfriend and his mom & step dad and telling my mom was still hard , of course I told her she was very upset didn't want me to keep it I explain to her my belief and how I'm 19 & he's 19 & that's something we have to grow up and deal with we have a responsibility now I was 5 weeks then when we told her I'm 28 now and she opened up a lot talks to my tummy all she says is don't call her grandma lol btw I told my mom through text lol his mom he walked in her room said we gotta talk she looked at us said hell yall gotta grow up and take responsability and find a place outta here she wasn't mad but she as well isn't ready to be a grandma since she's so young and parents want you to make better choices than they did ... I say suck it up bite your tongue and go for it ... It will all get better in time its hard at first but you never know ... GOOD LUCK !

Yeah i know its hard to wait but after the first trimester just to be safe.....i told my sister but other then that we waited....1 cause we didnt know how far i was and 2 because we wanted to be out of the first trimester. But ulitmatley its up you and what you want to do. Best of luck on your pregnancy!!! (:

I went through the same problem I waited to tell my mom because I knew she was going to be upset with me. I went ahead and told her ASAP since I figured it would be bad for about a week or two then she would just have to get over it. The day I told her she was soooo mad but all she did was cry. She didn't talk to me for almost two weeks then after that things got better and she accepted the fact that my fiancé and I were having a baby. In all honesty the moment I told her sucked and the two weeks felt like forever so they sucked even more but once it was off my chest and I didn't have to hide it, i honestly felt so much better

I say just tell them right away. I'm 18 and it was super hard for me to tell my mom because I knew she would be very upset with me. But i told her and of course she was upset at first but she got over it and now she's the happiest I've ever seen her. Just bite the bullet and tell them.

Ya wait until you are 12 weeks because if you know they will be mad, u dont need the stress that could make you misscarry. Usually people wait until they are 12 weeks to be on the safe side. Good luck Hun.

If wait till after your first trimester.. The doctor recommends that just in case of miscarriage but if u can't keep the big news just tell a small amount of close family. Congrats and goodluck!
