You tell them, you won't be able to hide it for long.
Perhaps you might get more detailed help if you explain the situation. Do you live at home? Are you deemed too young to have a baby? Does the father want anything to do with it? There are lots of factors we need to know in order to attempt to help you at all.

You tell your parents? It sounds like you still live with them and are their dependant, which means you are seriously going to need their help raising a child. You should just tell them.
If you're underaged and fear their reaction you'll just have to get over it. When it all boils down to it, if they had raised you with higher standards and morals you wouldnt have gotten pregnant, so theyre to blame just as much as anyone, if they have any finger pointing to do.
Your parents love you, they are sure to be disapointed and angry if it is the case that you're underaged/unmarried/ or living at home, but no loving parent would take it out on an innocent new life.
Part of having sex is being responcible and acting like an adult. Part of being an adult is communicating even when you dont want to.
If this isnt the case, and you're married and not living at home, and it just sounds like youre young, nevermind all that. :) Just tell them theyre going to be grandparents. Theyre sure to be excited. Wrap up the pee test and let them open it.

If you have not chosen to tell your parent's for what ever reason,you MUST for your sake and the baby's find a doctor.
Prenatal care is very important. If money is an issue you could contact Planned Parenthood for an appointment.
Being pregnant is not an easy thing to hide. If you are still living with your parents, I would suggest that you talk to them, you will need their support. Remember that they love you, and it may be a shock to them at first, but they only want what is best for you.

i have been to ur situation and the bad thing about u is ur the girl...i impregnated my wife and she was two months pregnant that time when our parents didnt know. i had to do the letting the parents know coz im the one who impregnated the girl and its not her job to do that. well, its really hard but the harder thing is when to do the revelation. i think u have to start getting close to them a bit and then know their mood for the day if theyre having a bad day or not...if not, then u may let the day pass to tell them. at the start u will hear there yellings about u being pregnant but im sure they will understand in the end. u jst have to be true about urself and tell them ur plans about ur baby. have a good day.

Well i my own experience i find that you will reveal that you are pregnant when you feel at most comfortable. i do think that if your parents are understanding then it will go over better. but the best advice i can give is that : " Get Yourself A Plan" as far as what you are going to do example: Do you plan on living in your parents house when the baby is born? How will you support yourself and your child? Do you have good support around yourself? and most imporantly Will your parents except you living in thier house with a baby? these are questions that you should take into cnsideration. Once you do then you will be able to tell them and grow as an adult. please make sure that you go to your prenatal appointments its important,and the doctor cant reveal your situation to noone,and if you plan on keeping your baby you need to get started.

I was four months along before I told my parents. It's pretty scary whether you live at home or not (I had moved out before I even thought I could be pregnant). It depends on the situation. If you live at home, you won't be able to hide it for much longer. If you don't, it'll still be difficult with the holidays coming up. Just sit down and talk to them. Tell them the situation. Involve the baby's father if he wants to be involved with the baby's life. You need to be upfront. Despite what you think, your parents won't kill you. (at least I'd hope not) My daughter was the first grandchild on both sides so she gets spoiled. Your parents should be more than willing to help you out.

I was 5 months pregnant when my friend told my parents after they asked her. It was so much harder on them. And on me. There's the worry of them finding out and they were very hurt I didn't confide in them. The thing about being pregnant and your parents being upset is that if they're like most parents, they will be disappointed because they want what's best for you and probably a little ashamed. BUT, once they see that baby, their hearts melt and everything is okay. Good luck.

You have to just sit down and tell them. I was 16 when I found out I was pregnant with my daughter. Also 3 months along because I was in some serious denial. You have to let them know so they can help you in whatever decision you make. Depending on your age, and the situation, things will either be rough or they'll go ok but either way everything will smooth out .

OK - as you haven't told your parents I am guessing you are afraid of their reaction?
How about confiding in an older friend or relative and asking them to come over and be there while you tell your parents. Someone who is known and liked/respected would be good. Maybe even a minister. It needs to be someone that you are comfortable with and that your parents respect.
If you feel one parent will be more receptive than the other - tell them first.
Your parents are going to find out eventually - it is far far better that they find out from you rather than deducing it or hearing it from someone else

Well it depends on your position in life. How old are you, who do you stay with, do you have an education or a job?I myself was pregnant at 19. It was hard but I told my parents. You need to do it as soon as possible, especially if you thinking about rectifying the situation. It is a hard thing to do, you can do what I did put the pregnancy test in a jewelry box and give it to them. Good Luck.
