Well if you have been going out for two years then you two know that you should have protected yourselves. There is a reason this has happen.
I am unsure of your age but I think that you should just be honest with your Mom and to show his responsibility he should be there with you when you tell her.
As for him going into the Navy, congrats. That is also a plus...that means government benefits and everything for your baby. Hopefully he won't miss out to much with the baby when he/she is a baby.
Best of luck to you both.

Well, just tell them. There really is no wrong or right way to break that sort of news. The sooner you tell them the better. I don't think it will matter much to them if you took them out to eat and made a big production out of telling them or if you just told them right out. It's a good sing your mom likes your boyfriend. But tell him first. Maybe make it special. Then you can both tell your mom together that way you won't be alone. And even though he is leaving to go into the Navy, you will NOT be in the way. He will have something to look forward to. Congrats by the way, and good luck!

Tell your boyfriend and your mom. Honesty is the best policy. You did the act to having a baby so in all fairness do not hurt the child. Have the baby!!! Financially babies are easier to take care of than what you think. It the raising that can be tricky, but it is easy with lots of l LOVE. It's just day care that can be expensive.
When you have your baby, you will find a love that you have never experienced before. What a Blessing, from God, it is to have a child, when many people can not.

firstly, you need to talk to your boyfriend about the pregnancy and work out what the two of you want to do. Just because he is in the navy and going away doesn't mean he can't take care of his responsibilities. You will feel more calm when you know what you are doing.
Once that is sorted, the two of you need to sit down with your mother and talk to her about it. If you have been going out with him for 2 years and she likes him, then as shocked as she will be, I am sure you will find her really supportive. If you are clear about your intentions, it will make it easier for all of you.
I remember when I found out I was pregnant with my first, it was a surprise, and I was afraid of telling everyone. I found out during a lunch break from work, my boss was great...gave me the afternoon to get myself together, picked up my mobile phone and dialed my b/f number and then handed the phone to me...when I asked why, he simply told me that it is best like a band aid, get it over with fast. And he was right.

I was 16 when I found out I was prego.. Oddly enough I finally told my mom and she said she knew.. I dont know how moms do it by they know more than you think. If its to hard to tell her, try to write her a letter.
If you and your bf are happy together and have been for two years he should be happy. Just be sure to tell him you do not want to stop him from the navy, he should be able to send some kind of cash back for you and the baby...

just be honest and tell her. If hes a good guy he will still be there for you even though he is in the navy. Honesty is the best policy, plus there isn't much she can say its already happened. She may be upset but she'll get used to it...best of luck
