There are reliable adoption agencies in every community. Check the internet or the phone book and call soon. They will NOT require that you place your baby for adoption; their counselors can help with every part of the decision, how to tell your parents, how to make plans. Making an adoption plan is often the best all around. You will be able to finish high school and go through your teenage years without having to be a parent first; the baby will have a home with a family that can take care of a child; the adopting family will have a child they really want. You can choose the adopting family and arrange any degree of contact with the child that you want. Look into it. You have some time to decide.

I would make an appointment at a local Family Planning Clinic. They will talk to you about your options and help you figure out how to tell your parents. I'm 18 and found out a couple of days ago that I am pregnant. They are really so helpful there, and it's free (I got charged $2 for a pregnancy test, but that was it...) It's a difficult time, but hopefully your parents will be understanding and help you in making the decision that is right for you.
Good luck, and if you need anymore advice, feel free to email me (R1mahoney@bridgew.edu)

HI there. Well, I can relate. I was 15 when i found out I was pregnant. (now 23) I didnt know though till i was 5 months along. I think I knew deep inside, I just didnt want to be or to scared to take a test. When I finally took a test, I had my best friend, another friend, my brother and his friend there with me. They were the first to know. So, minutes later I woke my mother up out of bed (around 11pm) and said "mom, i did something really stupid, (crying) and said i was pregnant. she said to me.."Oh jessie, god alright.. we'll make you and appointment, and not tell you father yet" When coming home from a night out with a friend my dad knew. he wasnt mad, he sez there isnt anything he can do or say in anger b/cits done and over with. they were excited though to have a grandchild come along. I stayed in school and got a full time job.it was hard, very hard. i even went on to college. never once thought of abortion. thats murder. child doesnt deserve that for your mistake. My entire teenage life ended when i had her. no going out, partys, nothing. I had responsibilities and a baby to take care of. If you decide to keep the child and not to do adoption.. there are programs out there. Go to your local Assistance office. I did, I got free child care, money, food, free health insurance, ect... Also a program called WIC for food and baby formula and food/juice. there are people to help you. Just dont drop out of school, dont get an abortion, and try not to do adoption, b/c i guarentee when you have that baby, you will never want to let go. Ever hear the saying,," How can you love someone so much you just met?" YEah, youll see. Just tell your parents. They will know sooner or later. get that over with. need any advice, you let me know. I Congratulate you and Best of Luck to you and your baby! :-)xo

You need to tell your parents asap before they start to suspect with your growing bump. They may be very supportive and you have a boyfriend so its not as if it was a one night stand. I was 16 when i got caught pregnant and my parents and boyfriends parents supported us 100%. good luck

Your parents wil find out when your tummy starts expanding. It's better to tell them now than wait to the last minute.
As an aside don't drop out of high school yet.
Try to avoid having sex at your tender age after this.

As much as you don't want to tell your parents you need to. Your health and the health of your child are going to have to come first so you will have to have them help you get a doctor that you can begin to see.

Sweetheart you NEED to tell your parents. You may be suprised that they will support you or give you options that you can take under advise. Both you and your boyfriend need them at this time. Give them the benefit of the doubt and go to them. Good Luck.

You need to calm down. As teenagers we think that our parents will never understand. Tell them whenever you are ready but don't take too long. You'll see that everything will go okay. It's all in gods hands.

Talk to your parents, they will know anyway, and decide what's better for u... that's teh best step you can take, nothing else, dont go to a clinic, dont do anything else, just talk to them, that's first, and dont wait anymore, just go... dont be afraid...
But it's you the one who has to decide what to do: whether to keep it or not (it's kind of harsh to say it like that, but it's reality)
It's your life, but please tell your parents..
Good luck
