19 and soon to be mom?

[Jujubean94]

I'm 19 years old and my bf and if just found out I'm pregnant yesterday. It really took me aback. We had be having sex without a condom or any protection for 11 months and nothing had happens, I even started to believe I couldn't have babies. But now that I'm pregnant I don't know if I'm ready. Maybe we should have been more careful?

I feel like my mom is going to hate me even more than she does now (we've never gotten along), and she'll probably say I'm just another statistical Hispanic having babies. I'm really scared to tell her and my family. Any suggestions how, or when, I should tell them?

I'm 19 and ten weeks. I told my dad the night I found out because I'm closer to my dad. I have issues trusting woman, including my mom, so I didn't tell her for a few more days. They both accepted it. My baby's going to be half native American, half Hispanic(the daddy)

I'm 19 and pregnant with my second. No parents are happy at first because its big news and a big change in every ones life but after the news sinks in I'm sure everything will be fine. You don't even have to tell her in person text it to her. I'm sure everything will be fine

I'm also 19 & found out yesterday that I was pregnant. I'm 6wks & luckily my bf is happy. I feel a lot of anxiety about telling our parents but we decided to tell them this weekend before I make 7 weeks. I realized it's very important to consult a doctor as soon as possible. It's gonna be hard however, it's ultimately your decision. Sit them down when your comfortable & explain what's going on& if you have a plan express that also

Im 20 years Old And 16 Weeks. I Was Nervous To Tell My Parents Because Im Currently In Nursing School. I Was Sure My Parents Would Think I Ruined My Life. Especially Since I Had No Real Relationship With My Child's Father. We Were Both Not Looking For One. Well. I Told Them In June And They Were Mad But Now The Excitement Is Growing On Everyone. Times Will BE Tough But Babies Have A Way Of Bringing Out The Best In Everyone.

Also all moms start off all upset but they come around. And then you will have your mom attached to your baby. So dont be nervous or scared. My mom cried and didnt talk to me for a week she didn't know how to handle it and then now she is super attached to my child lol

I am 16 years old. I thought for about six months of being with my boyfriend we was ready to have sex. I also never thought I would end up pregnant.  I cried a month straight before I could tell my mom. But when I did she wasn't as upset as I thought. You'll never know until you do tell her. And maybe she will take it as a blessing because that's what baby's are. And although I know I'm not ready to have a baby I am getting ready and I have a great support system. You also will have a support system once you do tell people and it will come a lot easier for you and you will be happier.

Had my son at 19. On scholarship for dance while in college i left it all for my child. But honestly since i know how you feel you will be accepted by many people who love you. I am a hispanic female and im not a statistic. My baby is 1 years old healthy as ever. And just a fyi because i danced and worked out everyday i didnt find out i was pregnant till i was 4 months. And second on the way im 21 now

I'm 19 and I turn 39 weeks Tuesday . I was surprised when I found out but very happy because my and my fiance wanted a baby yes we are young but not too young . I believe you can raise this baby a lot of girls do it. I've met young mothers like age 14 or 13 and they still did a good job so why can't we do it ? I wish you all the best in your pregnancy . Your mom may get mad but once she sees a tiny person she will fall in love :)

Thank you all for your kind words and advice It will defiantly help me and I think over all I'm just scared and nervous.

I'm always 19 and  due in November with a baby boy my boyfriends mom was kinda mad at first when we told her and we live with her so she had to take in that in 9 months there would be a crying baby 24/7 but now she is so happy its her first grandson (she has 2 granddaughters) so she couldn't be happier and my mom was supportive from the begin but my dad was mad and I haven't talked to my dad my whole pregnancy (I'm currently 23 weeks 6 days) because he just stressed me out and I don't need that for my baby so just relax they may be mad at first but once you get that first ultra sound and see there grand baby they can't help but be happy :)

this is your body and your child your mother may say hurtful things in the beginning but your 19 at least you weren't 15 like some of the girls i know and in the end they cant make you do anything sense your 19 and an adult

Congrats on ur pregnancy (: even tho it's hard to raise a baby when u have no family support it's still a big blessing!
I would say whenever u feel comfortable enough u should sit them down and tell them. You are an adult after all, so it's not as bad as still being under parental consent.
