Somehow 19 doesn't seem that young to me. Not after reading about the other younger teenagers experiences. We all have such different lives and what seems like a problem to one, isn't a problem to another.
I think it sounds great that you are in a relationship and have been ttc (which sounds like you have made an informed decision). 19 can be very mature for some girl. I have to admit, I was a baby at 19 and am still waiting to grow up (I'm 45!!!!!). My story is that I have lived my life with very old fashioned values and wanted to wait for the right partner before ttc. It's taken me this long believe it or not and now we are ttc for bubba #1. Hope we can manage it.
Congratulations and not long now before you see your little one's face (and count fingers and toes). How exciting.
Im 16 and I was scared to tell my parents i told my dad first and he goes are you keeping it and i goes yeh and he goes how far gone are you and i told him and hes okie about it neva shouted at me.......My mum dident shout at me either xx
My dad sussed me out my mum left when i was one year old. I was so scared to tell him and i thought my only choice at the time was termination. He guessed and said he would support my desision either way but told me i had alot of years ahead of me to regret the one i had made. When i decided i could not terminate and i loved my baby to much he nearly cried with relief. He got my mum up the duff at 18 and he knows how hard it is to bring up kids i figured i would be ok with him behind me Oh i tracked down my mum in london and called her and told her she was going to be a grandmother at 37 she turned up after about 8 years of being missing (again) the next day.
im 20 years old, not really a teen, but i feel young! i still live with my parents, so when i told them, my mom kinda already had it figured out.. and my dad didnt talk to me for a couple days, they're just coming to terms with it now, and im 23 weeks! lol. my moms been tryin to get me to get the baby to kick for her but she wont do it for my parents yet! .. lol!

Well I told my mom the day I found out I was 15 and I had Raven on my 16th Birthday.My mom raised us on her own and when I told her she shouted a bit said she was dissapointed and was angry for a lil while but she got over it and she wouldn change Rae for the world!!! My dad (who I saw twice a year every year so he was a father not really a dad) went absolutley mad and told me I was a slut and I was throwing my life away and I didnt see him for over 2 years. He saw Rae for the first time a couple of months ago and he was civil but not really nice!!! My brothers and sisters were really supportive and my oldest brother and sister were kinda dissapointed as well but they were all there for me xoxoxoxoxoxoxox
My mum went mental and started takin the house apart, i expected her to do this and worse but i guess she knew id react worse the more she went mad. now am 11 weeks i think shes secretly gettin excited about it talkin about names an stuff lol. ther are family members hu are still mad at me but theyl have to get used to it one day = ]
I'm 22, but still in education (postgrad) and so probably in fairly similar situations to some of you. My Mother was told by a person who works where she does who had seen me getting my dating scan. She confronted me about it and got really upset. My Dad hasn't really said much about it. They both started to gently push the idea of me and my bf getting engaged. He proposed last night so we are. But I kind of feel like we just did it because my mother doesn't want to tell the rest of the family without having something "good" to tell first. So they are telling the grandparents about the engagement now, but not telling them I'm pregnant for a couple of months. I feel really hurt by it. It's like they're trying to soften the blow but I feel like me being pregnant is just as good, if not better, than us getting engaged.
Anyway, I guess I don't really belong in this forum but I feel like I do a bit because I don't have the stereotypical ideal kind of situation that most mums-to-be seem to have. It won't help that my brother (10 years older than me) has just had a little girl, almsot a year to the day after getting married...and they have a beautiful house. And my sister has just got her 2nd house...and there's me, a bit of a failure, at the back of the family!
