Just found out I'm pregnant and have started to worry and stress

I'm only 19 and I have no idea how to tell my parents or how will my fiance and I be able to take care of this child. I have always wanted to be a mom but I pictured it so differently.

I definitely agree with just getting it out in the open, I'm 6 weeks and told my dad at 5 weeks. There was a moment of silence but then he just talked with me. Even if they are angry with you or the idea of you being so young, they are your family, they love you and hopefully will want what's best for you and baby. I'd say if you are stressing out (like I was) do it over the phone. As impersonal as that is, there's always the hang up button if things get out of hand. :)

Hi I'm 19, your better off getting it out the way, I've just told my mum and I'm 10 weeks. The longer you leave it the harder it gets. We still have no idea what to do, I work with children and have always wanted kids but not at this age. If you need me messege me.
