Telling my parents

I'm 18 , 4mths pregnant tomorow. I still havent told my parents because im so scared of how they are going to react. I finally decided it was time to tell them this Sunday. My brother is coming this weekend, and i thought maybe he could help me out breaking the news. But im still scared , im the only girl , so i think its going to be more of a heartbreaker to my dad.
Any advice ? .-.

I know that feeling.. thats what my dad told me. And yes it broke my heart to hear him say those words but now hes all excited about his first grandbaby! Im barely 12+1d and my mother doesnt live with me she lives in Mexico but all my family over there are just excited waiting for baby pictures lol they eventually get around and if.they dont you should focus about your baby. Good luck girly and hope everything goes well!(: and btw Congratulations on your little cutie pie!<3

The worst thing to hear from your parents is "im disappointed in you"  i think that will tear my heart. But thank you ladies ill keep this in mind. I just hope they will be happy. Expect the worst, hope for the best

I told my parents on Easter. My dad told me I ****** up my entire life. In 18 and 19 weeks today. Now that he knows I am having a little boy he is very excited an supportive. He is happy knowing he is about to have another little hunting buddy! He really started to care though after I got in to a pretty serious car wreck. Just tell them and the worst they can do is cry or walk out if the room. It's your life. You now have a little one to take care of if they can't help then they don't deserve to be a part of your baby's life.

Im also 18  and the only girl out of two older brothers it was so hard ... I didnt know I was pregnant till I was 2 months ... the next day after I knew my mom was having a "talk" with me tell me how proud she was of all her kids graduating but I started crying told her im sorry for dissapointing you and blurted it out . Of course I had to tell dad the next day..... which was hard im a daddys girl did everything with him but he was more encouraging to me but im sure you will get the words.... you're still my baby and you're already having a baby which broke me down ...... goodluck and congrats

The only advice i can give is just be honest and tell them . Dont freak out . They are your parents they will love you no matter what . I told my dad expecting him to be heartbroken as well (im 18 and his only child) he sounded a little sad but then he realized he was going to be a grandpa and he was pretty happy . Now hes excited . And my mom was excited from the beginning .
