Wow! Does this bring back memories!!! I was exactly your age when I found out I was preggo with my first child. My parents werent the problem, I knew my mom would be over-joyed, and she was!! But, I had to tell my hubby's (then-boyfriend) mom. I just straight-up told her. But, she already had her suspisions anyway. And by the end of the day, I knew she was happy, b/c she rushed out and bought the baby all kinds of new clothes and blankets!!
Just do it and hope for the best. Remember, this is a baby....their grandchild......they will love him/her as much as they do you!!

Please remember, your baby is their grandchild! The best thing to do is to talk to the parent you have the best communication with - could be either mom or dad. Usually it is easier for you to talk to one or the other. Be calm, supportive towards their feelings. Let them know you love them and would never do anything intentionally to hurt them. Get a plan, maybe write it down, how you intend to take care of the baby, work etc. This shows them maturity - even if it is a very basic plan. if they want to throw you out let them know you don't want to live in a situation that may be harmful to their grandchild. this is tough but it is done everyday with good results - it may take a while for them to get used to the idea. maybe get your mom to go shopping for baby things - include them in the pregnancy.

U need to put ur parent to sit down and u will start by tell her that every body make mistake in life and that no one is perfect, their may ask why u say that, that is when u will say that u r sorry for every problem is may cause but u r pregnant, their will be mad but be strong tell them u make a mistake and that u r sorry and u will learn from it, ask them to forgive u.

tell the dad of the baby to tell your mom he wants to marry you wait a couple of days then tell her your pregnant don't tell your dad let your mom tell your dad . It worked for me and we haven't married yet but are planing to. My mom was happy after ward mad at me but hen she was happy.
PS: When you tell then that you are pregnant say it very happy. It is a blessing after all. DON"T BE ASHAMED! i'm 19 too AND living with my parents plus the baby's daddy! It will all work out but be happy your gonna be a mother!

Well, it really depends on the situation...
Was ist an accident of a planned/accepted circumstance?
Are you considering if you'll keep the baby or not?
Are you happy about?
Are you able to care about the baby yourself or together with it's father - or are you still living at home, studying...?

How old are you? Do you know who the father of the child is? Have you told him? Is he willing to support you in any decision you make? Are you close to your parents so that you would be comfortable telling them? Are there religious implications? Might you be thrown out of the house?
We need way more info.

Tell them to take a seat, then say, will all the grandparents in the room remain seated. Wait a bit. Assess the situation. Run if necessary.

I just straight up told my parents when I was. There is no way to hide it and I wanted to give them enough warning so they could get used to the idea before the baby came! They were upset, yeah. but theres no going back now is there!
Good luck.

Ask your parents if they would like a grandchild, If they can help decides on names for kids. Approach your mom first, moms are more understanding to things of that nature. Good Luck, kids are awesome
