I was in your position back in december. i was reading and don't let people yell at you for haveing unprotected sex, and don't listen to them telling you you have to get married.
First thing you should do is tell him if you haven't already, then go to the doctors and make sure you are pregnant if you haven't already. You should let yourparents know if you are still living with them and if you aren't then tell them if you want, parents can be VERY supportive. I was 19 and still at home and i told my parents (now it took me a week after finding out to tell them) and i was scared but they were surprisingly helpful (even my dad)
My boyfriend and I were sorta planning to get married anyway, just not for a couple years, but when we got pregnant we decided to do it right away and my parents still paid for the wedding. Thats just what WE did. I suggest get married if YOU BOTH feel that you love each other and will have a good marriage the last thing you want for this child is to grow up in the middle of a bad marriage.
It was hard at first being a young mother but it has been worth every second through the pregnancy, labor, birth, and now that i can watch my baby grow with my own eyes.
Also if you feel like you can't take care of this baby and no one wants to help you, consider adoption.
Just do what is best for the child and for you.

Talk to your folks and decide what to do...do you want to go through with the pregnancy or not? If so, do you want to keep the baby or not? If you do, how will support/care for it and what part will your boyfriend (the baby's father) play in all this?
There's much to be decided and you can't (shouldn't) do it alone...but do what is best for you (and think ahead, long term... not just the here and now).
Best wishes to you and I hope you make a decision that you'll be glad you made in the years to come.

Ok first of all, you do what you want !!! DO NOT MARRY SOME ONE IF YOU DON'T WANT TO OR FOR THE BABY! That is the biggest mistake you can make and a lot of the reason why divorce is so high is because everyone thinks you should jump into marriage. Anyway, tell him first, then parents if you are underage or still in there house and then .decide what options are good for you
Good Luck

Babys are great a gift from god and it is always scary at the beganing but when you have they little girl or boy you will love them to death and you will never want to let them go you will never stop loving them if you are a teenager and your trying to tell your parents then just try to tell them slowly and if they are hard on u then tell them u know they did had sex in high school to o and in the end your parents will love the baby to you will do just fine i know it everything will work out

Face the consequences of your actions; tell your parents, then your boyfriend and seek help. Nothing else you can do now; you made an adult decision, so it's time to grow up. I don't mean to be harsh, but it is what it is. Good luck!

Talk it over with your bf, and decide if you want to keep the baby. This is a life-long commitment. It's very important that you both realize just how much this child will need growing up-and deserves. You have options-please make the right choice for the child's sake!
