I have a question, how did all you mommies out there come out and tell your family and friends about your pregnancy? I'm still contemplating on how I'm going to tell my family

[prettygorJESS]

And acted like I had no clue*

Yea I was 17 with my first & 20 with my 2nd. Didn't tell anyone til I was 5 months . My mom cried with my first. Had to leave work & stuff. She thought I was still a virgin. I felt awful. My dad didn't speak to me for a while after he found out about my 2nd. My mom was fine. Cried both times tho lol abound acted like I had bo clue

I was 18 when i got pregnant had him at 19 i just called my mom and told her she started screaming of happyness lol than she sent me text messages with emojis

I messaged my mum & asked her if she still had the cot she was referring to not long ago & could she please call me. She didn't ring me screaming congratulations as I was only 21 but she was really understanding & supportive. She gave me all the stuff her daughter was finished with & always checked in on me & my partner & even came to the birth. I just rang my dad & told him. He was also pretty understanding but lives interstate. My partner told his parents without me because they can be quite frank haha, they made sure we'd weighed all our options & then supported our decision. Everyone else found out via the Facebook announcement after 12 weeks. Its totally up to you how you go about it.I think if you call a family meeting & make a big deal about it you give everyone an opportunity to freak out, so just calmly tell the family necessary I think is best.

I gave my in-laws the paper saying I was pregnant and walked away because she started to cry and was being a ***** and was rude. My mom ans grandma were with me when went to make sure I was really pregnant and I gave my dad the paper to and he was shocked and mad but got over it. My mom cried but its her first grand baby. I am 21 been married over a year and together 9 years. So the parents had to get over it. Good luck.

Yea I told my mom first because we have the closest relationship, but I find her when I was 11 weeks. I found out I was pregnant at 8 weeks. I cried my heart out but she was very supportive. My grandmothers know and are very supportive but I haven't told any other family yet

Im only 18 now and was only 17 when I told my parents! My dad actually called it and bought a test for me at midnight and and he was very supportive, my mom on the other hand wasnt so thrilled.. she didnt have much to say about it or to me and kindof sat there with a dull look for about half an hour, it took a few weeks of talking about it and getting her used to the reality of it but before I knew it she was just as excited as I was! Good luck telling everyone :)

That's great that your parents came around! Gives me hope that my family won't be too disappointed at me. I'm only 19 and I know everyone will give me a headache over getting pregnant. Crying might just be a great way for me to tell everyone lol.

I was 19 with my first and not on speaking terms with my family so I just sent out a mass text

P.s. now my parents are so excited to be grandparents my mom cant wait for the baby to be here shes counting the days just like me. Shes planning me a huge baby shower and she is going crazy buying my sweet boy so much stuff! Spoiling him before hes even here. I could never imagine before it would be like this but with time thwy both came around and your family will too!!

Ugh i found out while planning my moms huge surpise 40th . Her bday was just around the corner, we had a huge hall rented and a hundred people coming family from all over flying in. I couldnt bare to tell my parents and risk ruining her bday. Plus they used to love my fiance and now they cant stand him. So i figured id wait til after her partty. A month later and i was already 1 and a half months. it all blew up she found out right before the party through the docs clinic she worked at because i had to decline an mri. She was mad and embarressed to find out that way, my dad was also upset i didnt tell him and upset about my mom being so sad. Luckily the family came from out of town next week and calmed my mom down telling them dont be mad im a grown up i live on my own. And things got better just days before the party! We were anle to enjoy the party thank gosh!
So better to sooner than later my mom was much more mad that i didnt tell her for so long, she felt hurt and embaressed.
