Stupid phone posted it without letting me spell check or finish but it was alot easier with her there and my mother accepted it and now they love all our kids and my husband since they got to know how wonderful he is.

I got pregnant with my first at seventeen and my parents hated my boyfriend and we had been dating for 7 months but we lied to everyone about it for 6 (stupid idea) and I've always found it easier to talk to my grandmother so I told her and she went with me for emotioral support

I know how you feel, I got pregnant with my first at 19. I understand what you are going through. It isn't easy, but just sit her down and be completly honest with her. I was so scared to tell my parents, but after a day or two they were slowly comming around. She is your mother and she loves you know matter what. My son is now 13 and he is spoiled by my parents. Just be honest!

haha, well that's a lot of moms!

I would just be honest. let her know that you didn't plan it, and that you're scared and need her support and love.

I'm 18 and I'm still living with her. My boyfriend and I just started dating October 27th and I end up pregnant already lol. I'm still just so nervous. My mom doesn't want me to have kids until I'm 30 lol.

well how old are you? are you in a stable relationship? how close are you to your mom?

usually just being honest and straightforward is the best policy.
