Im 18 ill be 19 in january 2 months before my baby comes. I dnt live with my parents. Me and my mom always bumped heads n we were always fighting. Even tho I dont live with her I was scared to tell her. Especially because my mom is strict Mormon. N after I moved out she didn't contact me because she was mad. But I was tired of her treating me like crap because I didnt believe in the Mormon church. So I left without saying a word. I left on my 18tg. Birthday right at midnight. I texted her on my phone n said hey I'm fine don't worry in not coming back n I told her I was sick of it. She never contacted me. An its been almost a year. So I figured if your not gonna answer my phone calls n your not gonna contact me why should I tell you. I'm almost 15 weeks starting to show. Even tho my mom was rude to me I still love her so I went to her work when I was 13 weeks. And I pulled her aside n I asked her you wanna go to lunch. She said no. I said why not? She said cuz. N I said ok mom I love you I tried talking to you. Let's be mature okay. N so she goes fine. I even paid for the meal. I told her I am pregnant. N I was scared to tell her. She started crying. I gave her a hug and I let her cry on my shoulder. She looked at me and said I'm sorry your scared I'm sorry I treated you the way she did. I toldher I'm sorry I left the way I did. She said she don't blame me. She said she never contacted me because she was scared that I was gonna just yell at her. No I just wanted my mom to be there for me and support me. She stopped going to church. Yes she was a little upset because I didn't tell her sooner. My point is you should tell your parents asap don't hold it off. Because even if they kick you out and make a mistake they will come around. Don't be afraid. Just talk don't waste time because a mother's love I'd way important. N ur situation is prob diff than mine but you will be mad at first but if she does something stupid like kicking you out. Just keep calling her n let them know how much you love them. And they will come around. Ik it is hard but you have to do what's right

Its frightening I told my mom I was pregnant am 17 and she was upset with the fact but along my pregnancy she got over it. Sometimes she bugs me about how my life would of been different but I wouldn't change it for anything. Just sit them down I mean it can go both ways. Its better to tell them now than later!

Well you have to tell them but I can understand your fear my mom chased me around the house with a pregnancy test when I was your age and I found out I was pregnant. It's scary but once it's over with its not like you ever have to deal with it again. You need all the support you can get at this time

My sister feel pregnant at sixteen and at that age I think most parents will be upset at first as they want so much for there child. That doesn't mean they will love you any less and once they see your baby they will instantly love it. Just be honest it will probley be hard at first but take it day by day. Good luck

I was a teen mom and luckily my daughter wasn't that bad when she was a baby but she's def caught up now lol. Most babies don't sleep through the night so just be prepared to wake up just to feed them change them and honestly just to check and make sure they are OK. Having a kid isn't easy but it is one of the biggest rewards in life. And I would suggest whenever your baby sleeps you do the same. In the end it will work out just make sure you have everything you need and your baby will be ok.

Well, I think honesty is best. Sit them.down and just tell them. Is the father with you? They will probably adk who he is and hopefully its been a bf they have met. Being a young mom will not be easy however its not impossible. Hopefully, your parents are not to hard on you. Btw, how do you feel about it? Do.you want to keep it?
