The answer lies within you. First: Who do you feel close (comfortable)most?? Do you have siblings that are very close to you? Are you that close to your mother?? How comfortable you are with your boyfriend, meaning he knows your other "dirty secrets"? The last question will somehow scrutinizes your relationship with him - do you see him as a confidante?
Of course, comes the brutal truth. Its inevitable but honestly it will help you a lot in the process of your decision-making. Is the baby his to begin with??
If you are positive that you are carrying your boyfriend's baby, as a father of your unborn child grants him the right to know. His reaction towards your pregnancy is something beyond your control, but the first important step to take is to identify your your confidante among your family members or even best friend. This is so that you can lean on to this particular person for support before breaking the news to your boyfriend followed by your family members. You will need all the support you can have. ONE THING is for sure, DO NOT avoid your family altogether. You never know that they can be the most supportive of all people whenever you have problems. Its just that this particular problem has serious consequences that have to be looked into.
Keep an open mind about your pregnancy making sure you are not to regret any decisions made. Be realistic about your circumstance and environment. The way I see it is not the breaking news to your family but how to go about your pregnancy, whether you are ready for the baby eventually, the conducive environment you need to provide for the baby and last but not least the financial situation that you are in and will be in after the baby's arrival.
To get your mental strength in breaking the news of your pregnancy, you have to relate back to your faith ( religion ). Ask HIM for guidance so that you can be calm and collected to face the adverse mixed reactions of your loved ones. Feelings of disappointment will run high, no doubt, because they care about you. The way you should present to them is like asking them for their support and assistance in tackling this problem.

i think of you will desire to communicate over with him approximately the place he sees your relationship going. additionally, keeping onto some thing that supposedly wont ensue back is a nasty element. If i became into on your footwear, i might circulate away him and allow him to form his very own mess out because of the fact if he's emailing yet another lady (worst case it rather is his ex) he for sure isn't taking your relationship heavily... You for sure do not have confidence him the two in case you're checking his emails? i think of time aside is what you prefer, yet surely communicate over with him and notice what he needs.. desire it helps.. And solid success!x

I think you should talk to him and let him know before you go forward in telling his family.. That way you won't catch him off guard and make him feel weird.. So talk to him and let him know that you are pregnant and both of you can figure out how you can break it with both of your family members.

As for your family, it's gonna hit them pretty hard...it's a big thing; so don't tiptoe around it. How you handle this may be a big part in how they view it as well. Just get them on the couch and tell them the truth.
As for your boyfriend, same thing, but be alone with him unless you think he can handle it well.
and congratulations (hope you see this as good). I hope the best for you and yours.

All you can do is be honest and just tell them. If you are really scared have a close friend or family member with you. Good luck and congrats..

As soon as possible as the longer you wait the more difficult it will get and then if they find out on there own they might not be as happy about it.
Go out for dinner and discuss it that way it makes it special.

Definately tell your boyfriend first. If it was unexpected you all need to talk about it before bringing his family in the situtation. If it was planned think of some cute way to make it happen.
