You just tell them.
My 16 yr old just told me this week that she is pregnant. It was not the happiest moment of my life, but your parents will adjust.
You are an adult, and it sounds like you might not be married, but that is okay. Now you have to act like an adult.
It depends on how close you are to your parents, if you are not close tell them on the phone of in a email. If you are close then go to them and seek their comfort and advice. You will have to expect them to be hurt but I'm sure they will be there for you. If not there are resources for mothers out there.
Seek support of others will you make the choices that you are now going to be faced with.
Please don't choose abortion, their are plenty of loving parents just waiting to adopt a child because they can't have one.
If you are not ready give someone that is a chance to make their dreams come true.
Good does come from some mistakes
God Bless

Just tell them. Your 20 there isn't anything that they can really say about it. Your an adult and your own person if it's what you want then that's great being a parent is the greatest thing. I was 23 and had been engaged for 6 months when I found out I was pregnant and I was scared to tell my parents but I just looked at my mom one day and said I'M PREGNANT! I let her tell my daddy I know it was a cowardly thing to do but I have never been able to talk to my dad about anything but cars or trucks. JUST DO IT!

They should just be happy it didn't happen earlier (like alot of the 14 year-old pregnant girls on here). I got pregnant at 18, and had my son at 19. I'm single, but we have alot of fun together. My parents were dissappointed, but as soon as my baby came into the world, they have doted on him ever since. I would not have changed a thing, and my parents had to just face the facts. Your will do the same. Good luck, and congrats!

I would just flat out tell them. . . . I was only 18 when I got pregnant the first time and my parents were really excited and offered to help in any way, even though it was a planned pregnancy, most people cant wait to be grandparents. . . Congrats!

YOU ARE TWENTY!!! Buck up and tell them, its not like you are 14!! I would sit them down and go into deep context about how you were with a man and he pushed it in and the sweat was making all the windows fog up and then you realized the mean had an evil plan and he was trying to make you with child and guess what it worked! Just tell them or dont and just lie to them for 9 months that you have horrible stomach cramps

I was in a similar boat. I unexpectedly got pregnant and was so scared to tell my parents. I simply called them and told them how far I was along and that I was keeping the baby. They were upset at first, but had to accept it. Just like your parents will. Good luck and take those prenatal nutrition pills!

Ask yourself this, have I been loved & support by my parents in the past. Have a little faith in them. Remember part of this baby is theirs too. Tell them & if you need help & support that is a great place to get it. Grandchildren are pretty special to most folks. Good Luck.
