Although keeping the baby is obviously an option, so is abortion and adoption. Having a baby is hard and having a baby as a teenager is even harder. A lot of these comments are probably true, but you don't just have yourself to think about now. Look at your situation realistically and then speak to family and professionals about the best option for you and your baby. And don't apologize for the decision you end up making, whatever it may be.

you are all being so helpful its just my mother and i have a horrible relationship and i know she is not going to react the way i wish she would, as for the father he has decided to completely ignore me and block my number i feel so alone and lost and so scared. I know things arent as bad as they seem but im honestly worried about whats going to happen

I got pregnant at 16 I found out when I was 6wks I told my mom the same day she was disapointed but came now shes so happy me and my boyfriend is a bit stressed we have to finish school work and take care of our baby life is not easy for us we have to work for every thing but it will be worth it you probly feel alone and its the end of freedom but its not hang in there it your choice I would to offer you advice if u need it expecting in october excited and nervous

I was so scared to tell my parents and I'm 22, but they might surprise you, I'm only 6 wks tmrw and my dad (who I thought would hate me) is already sending me pics of onsies he's bought lol he's excited to be a grampy

I am 17 and 14 weeks, I told my parents at 5 weeks and it was the best thing i could've done, they have been great support. And I know how it's going to be hard. But im going to graduate and still do what I planned to do, its just a little harder now, But family support will help considerably. As for the dad, maybe he'll come around and maybe he wont, either way if you know its his kid then he's going to take care of it one way or another, whether it be being there for it and helping raise it or child support. And yeah, since you're early you have options, just whatever you do isn't going to be easy. Good Luck.  And if you ever want to talk message me.

There are lots of support groups for what ever you choose. Also the father may not want anything to do with it but legally he has to so that avenue is always available to you. You should tell your parents though you need support and I bet they suprise you.

Oh yeah I forgot to add I'm 18:)

I just turned 18 and an 28 weeks pregnant. I still can't belive I am pregnant but I will never regret my child. However I do regret having her young. We are going to have to struggle so much but I know we will get three it. If you need anyone to talk to send me a MSG (: It's kinda hard to talk to older woman that are in there 30 and married because I feel like they look down on me

More than likely parents will be disappointed but yu need to tell them. Pregnancy alone is a hard thing to deal with and if the father isn't around yer gonna need yer parents to fall back on. Trust me yu are not the first teen to get pregnant and yer parents will get over it
As for the baby daddy, he's young and I don't agree with him leaving but more than likely he just needs time to take it all in... give him his space and let him decide what he wants to do about it but like mommyofhayden said if he doesn't want anything to do with it all it will take is a paternity test and he will be paying child support.
It's going to be extremely hard but I don't think yu are incapable. My thoughts are with yu. Good luck sweetie

I'm almost 22 and I'm 7 weeks...when I told my parents I was TERRIFIED! But in the end they got over it...were still in shock but they will come around.

Ok so telling you parents is the scariest part. I couldn't stop crying although I was engaged,now married. I was only 18 and was Workin my way into the air force. My parents had the opposite reaction I thought they would. They were so happy. Pray for the best and if it makes it easier tell your sibling or bff first and have them help you tell your parents! Good luck

[proudmommy120612]

I agree with both you do need to tell your parents sometimes we freak out and overdo what we think our parents might say you never know they might be excited to have a grandchild. I had my first when I was 16 and I don't regret it one bit he actually turned my life around and made me a better person now he is 5 starting school this year and I'm 22 and 21w2d with #2.

The only advice that i can give right now is that you need to tell your parents. Its scary for any age to tell your parents that your expecting and i am sure a lot of the females here will agree with that, but IMO thats the first step that you need to take. They may be mad at first but you need to get a support system since the father doesnt seem to want in the picture. From there i would lay out your options with your parents, make a pros and cons list for each option, and sit down and think real hard about your life and this childs life, too. Good luck dear.

Just relax and think about things. The father of the baby will have to pay child support and might come around once paternity is deteremined. If you choose to have the baby and keep it, you will struggle but you probably will be glad you did. You are early in this pregnancy and there are many options. I know that you are a teen and doing this on your own doesn't spund idea. I am also a teen, i'm 17 & 26 weeks pregnant. I am considering that i might struggle, however i have a strong support system from my family and fiance. If you ever need to talk i'm here.
