Sit ur mum down in a peaceful environment and tell her. Let het know what u plan on doing. I never got to tell my mum about my pregnancy at 18 and I regret it. She found out through an appointment letter. I think she felt as if I don't trust her. You're mum will notice a difference in u as ur pregnancy develops so tell her sooner rather than later. Your mum may be angry like mine was but she will come to terms with it eventually cos she can never abandon u at ur time of need. I'm 8 months pregnant now and my mum has helped me out so much. Are u with ur babys dad? Maybe u can tell her together.

Telling your mom is never going to be easy. I recommend doing it in her house and just being honest. I am sorry you are so scared.
