First off, don't tell her anything until you are 100% certain of your pregnancy! And if she has a temper, you might want to make arrangements to move out (if possible) because that would be dangerous to the baby. But you might be surprised... she might be initially upset/angry, but later be ecstatic about the thought of a grandchild. It really depends on the type of person she is. Best of luck.

First, remember your mother loves you, and tho she might get upset at some things you say or do, in most cases it is for your own good.
Sit down and talk to your mother as an adult. Tell her your plans, what you intend to do with you child, and your life. Even if she is upset, once she see's the baby, she will forget everything else. (Thats what I did.
Tell her you know you made a mistake, that you are ready, willing and able to take care of the mistake, tho you might need some advice from her from time to time.
Ask your mother for advice, such as should you continue living at home, or would the baby be a strain on her, should you move out? Mom will be there for you, and the more you include her, the more she will accept it.

This is that point in your life where you have to grow up real fast. Not trying to be rude to you...I just want to give you the best advice if I were your mother. You are going to have to get very brave and confront her with the truth.There really is no good way of doing this.Just be honest and answer any questions she may have for you. Remember...no matter what age you are....you will always be her baby....and if she pays all the bills then you really just have to put up with whatever she tells you.It may be a good idea to leave the nest and try your grown-up wings soon.

well you should trust your mother a little bit to not go all out. but first you should sit your mother down and say" I'm so lucky to have a mother like you and i just hope that i can be a good of a mother like you. what I'm trying to say is that there might be a chance that I'm pregnant." then if she start going crazy calm her down and tell her"I'm not trying to stress you but I'm going to find out if I'm really pregnant and if i am i will try to make the best decision for me and its no one fault but mine and i have to live up to my mistakes as a grown women. i know your not always going to be there for me but this a situation i have to handle on my own." now if she ask you how you gonna support the baby think about all the possiblities you can think of and let her know them.

Always start the conversation seriously. Actually sit her down like a adult and come clean. You are both growen. She may still get mad but be mature about it. If its anything you needs its support from you mother. Good luck & keep you head up.

First of all, take a pregnancy test. If you are pregnant, tell your mom you need to talk to her. Sit down like two adults and tell her. She will be upset at first but will get over it and hopefully support you.
