-What were you afraid of before you told you pregnant?
Rejection,their anger.
-Did you tell anybody else first?
My sister,they baby's dad,my friends knew.
-How did you tell your parents?
I drove up to their house one day and told them I have to tell them something.They knew something was up because we haven't seen each other in months.We sat in the living room and I simply blurted it out.I told them ''I'm pregnant,I'm having a baby and keeping it''.
-How did they react?
Terrible.They were so angry,we fought,they said I was crazy and can't possibly keep it.Actually my dad wasn't so angry,it was more my mom,who even cried.My dad just sat there and said ''You're not keeping it,period''.It was like he wasn't surprised...
-What did you say to them?
I mentioned already.I said,''So the thing is that I'm pregnant and keeping it''.
We're not that close so I wasn't completely worried and scared...
-How do you feel now that you've told them...angry,regretful etc.?
I feel sad that they want nothing to do with it,but I do not regret telling them.I did my part and now the ball is in their court.If they want to change their mind,they can and I'd be happy,if they don't,I'm still happy...
Thats basicly it.If there's something else you want to know,I'd be glad to answer it for you...xxx

- What were you afraid of before you told your parents you were pregnant?
I was afraif of how they would react I am 22 but in my mind and theirs I'm still around 16. I was worried how she would take it and if she would be angry with me. I was worried that my dad would lose it and be mad and demand that my OH answer for what he has done. lol
- Did you tell anybody else first?
I told my OH and my collegues at work before my parents.
- How did you tell your parents?
My mum was sat at the dining room table doing her finances and I made her a cup of tea and was having a joke with her and tried to help her out with her finances. I wasn't planning on telling her then I was going to tell her after i had my docs appointment but after a quick call to my OH we decided it would be best to tell our parents then and get it over with like pulling off a plaster!
- How did they react?
My mum was shocked and was like hmmm ok how do I feel about it? She had a lot of questions and things about how we would manage to which most of my answers were (and still are) I don't know. She has been great very supportive. Now she jokes about it all the time. My dad was almost relieved! He told me afterwards that he has been worried about the day I woud annouce my pregnancy since I was 3 years old lol, and when it finally happened it wasn;t as bad as it could have been. I am in a stable relationship they like my OH.
- How do you feel about how you told them... are you glad, regretful, etc
I was relieved like a huge weight off my shoulders. I could talk to my parents again without feeling like I was hiding something and being mean. I could sleep. I could relax. Plus I had my mum who I could talk to about all my concerns and worries.
What did you say to them?
Basically my dad was working away so I told my mum by her self first. I basically said "Mum, I've got something to tell you" "whats wrong hunny?" "well it's my and OH, we kinda sorta had an accident and I'm pregnant" she asked why i didnt take the morning after pill i said because it's happened in the past and nothing came of it, and i didnt think the dates in my cycle matched kinda thing. she asked how far i was and for how long i knew for. She then told my dad when he came home from working away and told him that i would have liked to tell him to his face but he was away and I had to go back to craigs.
On a side note to avoid my parents finding out before my OHs we actually decided to do it at exactly the same time. I think it was a comfort to both to know that each other was finding out at that precise moment!
Heya am Rachel an i'm 16 (still at school) an i'm 31 weeks + 2 days pregnant with a precious little baby boy, Jayden Robert.
- What were you afraid of before you told your parents you were pregnant?
That they would be dissapointed in me for getting pregnant at 16, an to been seen as a disgrace to my family. - Did you tell anybody else first?
My step mum, she was the one who persuaded me to take the test and helped me deal with things as they happened e.g. telling babies dad + going the doctors. - How did you tell your parents?
I didnt actually tell my mum, my auntie did because i was so scared! but after she calmed down i went home.
I was havin a discussion with my dad about 'what would he do if i said i was..' then he said are you tryin to tell me somethin an i cried so then he knew. - How did they react?
My mum went completely nuts, smashed a few things up in the house but eventually calmed down by the time i got there an she gave me a hug an asked if iwas ok.
My dad told me to get out his face because he was disgusted in me. - How do you feel about how you told them... are you glad, regretful, etc
Now, i wish i had told my mum myself because it was my problem and i shouldn't have left it to other people to deal with it for me. My mum is now the proudest/excited nanny to be ever, even though i know she wished i did things differently she has been my rock and has supported me throughout this pregnancy.
I wish i didnt tell my dad at all, i don't even no why i did because we never talk to eachother.
