Im 21 too so not quite a teenager either, but I still feel like one!
I told my mam and dad when they came to visit. I was really nervous but my Dad just gave me a hug and said he was happy, and my mum did the same. My little brother (whos 7) had a bit of a harder time accepting it, but he's excited now.
Now that the first day has passed though no one really talks about it anymore... my dads a bit upset because he thinks he's too young to be a grandparent so he doesnt ever mention anything, my grandparents arent happy at all because we arent married (but weve been engaged and living together for over a year!) so they dont talk about it either, and my mum has always had a lot of problems conceiveing and I think she knows this was an accident and I think she's a bit upset by that. I dont really know.
My dad and my 3 big brothers all told my to abort !! i dont get on with my mum so she shes not botherd , my dad threw me out !
thats harsh. Hope your coping well?
It took for my babys life to be at risk and me being in hospital for my dad to so much as pick up the phone n ask how things were. Up until maybe a month ago.
I was meant to go and tell my nan tonight but I can't face it. I'm not sure I'll be able to tell them atall
It is really hard but I think theyd be more upset hat you kept it from them. I have to say, I was most scared of telling my dads parents because theyre very old fashioned. The fact is, the only reason they might be angry is because they love you, but Im sure theyd come round really soon. It might even give you somewhere else to go to talk to people if youre still hvaing problems at home.
well im not a teen anymore but i had my first child at 17, fell pregnant at 16.
when i told my mum she kinda hit the roof and said "well ur not gonna keep it are you" and straight away i said YES, i might have been 16 but a termination had never even crossed my mind as when i was 13 docs told me i wouldnt be able to carry a child, i would concieve but due to damage on my womb i wouldnt be able to carry the baby and would miscarry so to me the baby was a sign from god i said to my mum "but what if i cant have a baby again and i terminate i would never forgive myself for it" when i said that she understood what i ment and said your young and im just worried u wont be able to cope, she knew i was mature for my age i just think she didnt want me to miss out on my tenage years like she did as she had me at 17. my step dad was really cool and spoke with my mum and made her understand it was my choice and my life and that she should be happy coz shes gonna be a nanny, after a few days she was great offering me advice on how to eat and what i should and shouldnt do when pregnant, she bought me clothes and loads for the baby and even moved my little sister into her room so i had a room for me and the baby to ourselves, i didnt tell my dad until i was 8 months gone, he lived with his new wife and i was scared to tell him coz well he's my dad and i know he would be dissapointed but when i told him he was really cool about it but his wife had different opinions, she really hurt me and said she didnt want me around the house as i would influence her daughters into doing the same thing when they got to my age which was ridiculous ans iv always told my sisters that they should wait until they are older and have a home and money of there own, well my mum dad and step mum all love him to pieces now and always take him for weekends and have done for the past 6 years, now im nearly 35 weeks pregnant with my second child and i must say everyone is over the moon about it. a teem mum is just as good a mum as an older mum iv never relied on anyone to help me bring up my child as it was my choice to have him, so congrats to all the teen moms out there you'll be great!!!!!
