I was 15 when i got pregnant i didnt tell my mom till i wad almost 5 months. It was the WORST mistake i made not telling her i recieved no prenatel care had none of my worries or questions answered it was horrible not to mention my mother was more upset i waited to tell her she was very upset i was pregnant but she wanted to bw there for her grandchild and make sure he is healthy and btw we nvr got along and she still had my back so who knows your parents may surprise you, mine did. Just think of you and your child.

Ask your dr to help!!! I was 17 with my first and scared to death....my dr helped me tell my mom and she helped me tell my dad who I thought was going to freak out but simply said "there is always room for more" im now 30 and 6 weeks pregnant with my third.....called my dad first and he said the same thing again. Dont hide it and dont be scared the best thing you can do is tell them so you can start with a good support system for the baby and you. Being a teen mom myself the best thing I had was my family and their love and support.....and 12 years later I still have it!!!!!

If you're afraid of the face to face confrontation, you could write them a letter or call them.. I would get your thoughts straight first, do you want to keep the baby? Adopt? Ect. Talk to them though.  You never know.  They very well could surprise you. Good luck dear. We're hear if you need to talk :)

Don't do it. Especially at 15. Harder to get a job. Impossible to find a place to live. I'm 19 and I can't find a job or my own place.
