Just sit them down, and have an adult "heart to heart" conversation. If you show them you can handle it, that youve done your research, and need there support to make it through, Im sure they will help you out

When I was 18 I was pregnant and the father left me. I wasn't the baby of the family but still there was shock. I lived in a foster home at the time but had been there for four years and was loved like their own.
When I told my foster mom she knew already. It was just taken for granted that I'd have the baby and raise him.
You will have to tell your parents. It's better to do it before you start showing because it will seem dishonest if you wait until you have this huge belly!
Just tell them your pregnant. There's really not a hole lot that can be done now. If you are sorry then tell them so. Tell them that you're sorry this happened but it did happen and it must be dealt with. Tell you're parents you love them very much, because it's obvious they do.
Honestly, they'll probably see you differently now. You're not a baby any more. You're having a baby. It's time to grow up, do so gracefully. You can still be close to your mom and dad. Tell them about the baby. They may be angry at first but hopefully they'll come around.
If you haven't done so yet, please get to a doctor soon it's very important for your baby.
I admire your honesty. You'll be fine.

You'll be your parents lil baby even if you get Married, & move out on your own. My 3 Girls are, 7, 14, & 15 & they'll ALWAYS be MY lil Babies! You'll know what I mean when you have your's. The Best way to tell your parents is to have your Boyfriend come over & you ALL sit down together & just come out & tell them. Your parents will be upset only at first & then they'll be Happy! Trust in your Heart & things WILL work out for the Best. Congragulations too! And try NOT to stress so much, that'll hurt the Baby.

There is going to be no easy way to tell your parents,but I would recommend that before you sit down and tell them that you have a good idea of a positive plan for your future so that when you are telling them that they can sense the positiveness about the whole situation coming from you.If you are the baby of the family,just because your having a baby doesn't mean that you are longer going to be their baby
(you will always be their baby in their eyes,no matter how old you are).I hope that what ever path you take to telling your parents that it goes well.take care.

No matter how old u get, u will always be your parents baby. You sit them down and tell them that you are pregnant. There is no way to sugarcoat it or make the bomb dropped any easier. My dad was pissed the first time i got pregnant but after i had the baby, all that changed. You are 18, old enough to make your own decisions, so just sit them down and tell them like it is.

I assume from the tone of your question that you and your boyfriend are happy about having a baby, so congratulations. I just think it's a little sad that you are so young and even admit to wanting to still be "the baby". It's a little tough to be mommy and baby at the same time....but....
If it were me, I would approach my parents very humbly. Something like this:
"Mom, Dad, Billy and I have something important we need to tell you and it's not easy for me to tell you this so please let me finish before you say anything. I'm pregnant with Billy's baby and we are happy about this but I'm kind of nervous and afraid that I won't have your support and help with this. I really need you to be there for me as my parents and, even if you think this is not the right thing for me to do and even though you may be angry, I need to know you will still love me."
Perhaps Billy would like to say something after that and then you need to let them respond.
You need to talk to them soon - the sooner you let them know the more they will realize that you are trusting them to help you.
Good luck sweetie

You need to just come out and tell them that you need to talk to them. I would say something like, "Mom, Dad, I love both of you very much and I know this is going to be difficult for you since I am the baby, but I am pregnant". They are probably going to freak out at first but better you tell them than let them find out some other way! Good luck!

Flattery is the way to go. Try this: "This is not the order that we planned to do things, but *Joe* and I are expecting a baby. We love each other and we have every intention of taking full responsibility for our lives and the baby. We understand if you need time to digest this information, but we hope you will want to be a very special part of the baby's life. We know you will be wonderful Grandparents."

Glad you b/f is willing to be with you when you break the news.
I don't know your family's position on this, but your parents love you. You'll always be their "baby" if you're their "baby" now. Just tell them the truth. Parents may get upset about unplanned pregnancies, but they won't stop loving you. They'll love their new grandchild just as much. It's a part of you.
Good luck!

Hey,
Cook dinner for your family one night. Sit down to a nice meal and make sure your boyfriend is with you. While your eating dinner tell your parents and family you have some good news and you really need them to be supportive. When they ask what it is just say with your boyfriend, WE ARE going to have a child.
