I would tell them about the baby first. You don't want them thinking that just because you are pregnant that's why you are getting married.

Tell them about the marriage first, and then wait a few weeks and tell them about the pregnancy. It will all be ok. I was 19 when I got married and Im 30 and still happily married. Having out 4th child. Good Luck

They might be a little shocked at first but you are 19 and with this guy for a long time and it looks like he's planning on being there for you and your baby for the long run but just to be safe maybe let them know about the engagement first and then wait like a week to tell them about the pregnancy. give them some time to process

Why hide it? You are obviously old enough to make your own decisions now and there is absolutely nothing that your parents can do to stop you if you are truly in love with this guy and you truly are wanting to keep your baby. Just tell them there is no reason to hide it or lie about any of this. You are now an adult that is responsible for your own choices. Good Luck and just go ahead and tell them everything!!

I would DEFINITELY tell them about your getting married first.
Otherwise they may be thrown for a loop because they might think your boyfriend is only marrying you for the sake of the baby.
They would possibly think your marriage will be doomed from the beginning as a result of your getting pregnant. They might freak.
They want their daughter(you), to have a happy marriage, not one that was forced.

you should tell them about the pregnancy and the marriage all at once. It will make you feel better cos then everything will be all out in the open at once and you don't need to be delaying anything stressful with that little one growing inside of you girlie. and relax everything will be ok. and congrats!
