Honesty will be your best policy!!! You cannot hide from this if you are going to continue on with the pregnancy.
They have no choice but to deal with it. Sit your father and BF down together and just tell them together. If you are afriad that your father might hurt your BF then tell your father first, see what he has to say...we of course as parents get upset but that upset is just disappointment~! Then after dealing with the person most important to you at this time then deal with your BF.
No matter what you need to be honest. You did not have protected sex so you must deal with this as it comes.

I got pregnant at fifteen, had my baby at sixteen. My family and the baby's father were and still are very supportive. I love my son so much, but it is important that a child be brought up in a two parent home. I married soon after I found out I was pregnant. If you don't plan on marrying the child's father, put it up for adoption for it's own good. Knowing people who have had it done, I would never suggest abortion, it is a traumatic depressing experience that you can never go back and change. Do the right thing. Good luck.

Decide what you are going to do about your pregnancy first - keep the baby, place the baby for adoption or abort it. Those are your three choices. Then after you decide, tell your boyfriend, and then you two tell your father together. If this guy is going to be the father of your child and you're going to keep it, he better be man enough to face your dad. If he's not, he's not ready to be a father.

First you need to tell your boyfriend. If you both want to stay together and be parents, then you need to go to your dad together. Ask him to sit down, and tell him that you are pregnant. He may be dissapointed in you, but he will eventually come around. Now that you are going to be parents, it's time to show them that you are being mature. Coming forward together is the best way to do it. This is all coming from experiance. Good luck to you....

i went through the same thing when i found out i was pregnant, i told my boyfriend right away, it took awhile to tell my parents, i was really scared, but the best thing is to tell them early, i waited a long time and i think it would have been better if i would have told them earlier, they wil be upset, mad, disapointed but after a while they will accept your decision and will love the baby and forgive you. my mom was the hardest person, she took awhile to be okay with teh idea, my dad suprised me and was happy and really supportive, just be honest and tell them everything right from the start, parents have unconditional love, they are still going to love you no matter what.

What I would suggest is tell your boyfriend first. I know when I found out I was pregnant I pulled my boyfriend upstairs and just showed him the pregnancy test. Parents were a little harder....Kinda chickened out and just showed my mom something. What I would suggest is to just tell them to the truth, they'll find out eventually. Talk with your boyfriend, find out what you're going to do about the situation and then go from there.
Hope this helps you out, hun. Good luck and congradulations.

I feel for you it was very hard for me to tell my Grandfather and my mother when I got pregnant at 19, but after I told them it felt like the biggest weight was off my shoulders. They were fine about it, and there was also nothing they could do it was out of their hands. Just tell them you will do everything in your power to be the greatest mother and that maybe it is a blessing in disguise.

There is no perfect way...just be honest and tell the truth and make sure that it does not turn into a yelling match. Remain calm and try to answer any questions that they have. They can not change the fact that it happened. NO matter how muchthey may yell at you.

just tell your dad you have something to tell him... parents usually get a little mad at first, but they're parents they end up being supportive most of the time and try to help as much as they can.
