im 17 . how do i tell my mom im pregnant by my boyfriend?

Answer 1

Thats the worst part. I havent told mine yet (2nd time). Its a scary thing lol.. But WHAT I WOULD DO if your really scared of saying those words "im pregnant" then give her all the hints like , sleeping all the time, hungryness, SICKNESS, dizzyness..Trust me she'll catch on and ask you the question...then you start if off with" I dont know" lol....and then 'boom' !... there you go. you just told her cuz then comes everything else "are you late, have you gotten tested, have you had sex? and shell probaly take you to the doctor from there. GOOODLUCK!!!!!

Answer 2

well...you are almost an adult (at least legally) so the best thing to do is to just be honest with her. Tell her you need to have a talk with her and that it is best that you do it at a time where she can actually sit and talk ad not have to rush off to do anything else. If she knows that you are having sex then the hard part is out of the way.
It is a hard thing to do. i had to tell my mom when i was 18. It was a little easier for me because i had already moved out...but still it was hard.
i sympathize with you and my best advice would be to have an answer ready for all of her questions and let her be the one to cry. you have to keep your composure and allow her the initial feelings of sadness or disappointment or whatever her first instinct is.
you can email me if you [e-mail]

p.s. it is not neccisarily true that she will know eventually without you telling her...i was pregnant with my second and lived with my mom until 2 weeks before he was born and she had no clue....

Answer 3

Poor thing, I feel bad for you. In a way you are lucky. You are at the end of high school and could probably finish it and still care for you baby. Go up to your mom, tell her about it. If she goes beserk, expect it. It was a mistake, a big one. She will be disappointed you do know. You may feel like no one understands. Go to a hopital and ask if they have a program for girls who are pregnat young. Do that first. Find out stuff about it, school, life, then tell your mom the info you found out. One day she will understand, it may be a while though. And don't bring your boyfriend to your house again, that won't be pretty.

Answer 4

You know she is going to find out whether you tell her or not. So, the easiest thing to do is just sit her down and tell her. The sooner the better. I know it will be hard, but you will feel so much better when it's been done. You never know...she could be excited about it. It might take her a while to come to grips with it, as most moms think they won't be grandmas for a few more years. Make sure to let her know you are willing to work super hard, and finish school.

Answer 5

You need to tell her right away, If you keep putting it off she is going to know sooner or later when you start to show and she will probably be even more angry. Yes she will probably be very hurt and upset but she will get over it so don't hold it off tell her asap.
Are you absolutely sure your pregnant? Have you taken a test or gone to the doctors? That is another reason you need to tell your mother, If your pregnant your going to have to go see a doctor and make sure everything is ok with you and the baby and get pre-natal pills.
I wish you the best of luck!

Answer 6

I admit your mom is going to be hurt because my mom was. You're going to be OK. Just tell your mother that you made a mistake and you are expecting a child. If you can go to the doctor, find out how many weeks, months you are, so when you tell your mom your facts will be straight. Explain to her that you are prepared to take responsibilities, and that you thank her in advance for all the things she'll have to do for you all. Just pray and i hope you have a healty baby. if you need more info e-mail me at nishababe74@yahoo

Answer 7

i recently read a sample letter in the oct. 07 seventeen magazine of a girl telling her parents she's pregnant. here it is:

Dear ____,

I know that you love me and want the best for me. I didn't plan this, but I'm pregnant. You might be disappointed and worried- I am too- but what I need from you most right now is your support so I can make good decisions and avoid putting my health at risk. Please be there for me.

Love, _____

you could also say that to her instead of writing it, and of course add in or change whatever you want. but i think that sounds like some pretty good guidelines. good luck! and get on some birth control please so it doesn't happen again.

Answer 8

If you have already went to the doctor I would sit your mom down and just tell her. There really is no other way you can do it. Be nice about it. Hopefully she will understand. Do the same thing with your boyfriend. Ask him if he wants kids or ever thought about having kids with you. I hope everything goes good. Good luck with that.

Answer 9

the best thing you can do is just tell her your already pregnant what more could she do but go to her with come type of confidence not attitude she is going to cry let her do that so she will be able to get it all out but in the end she is still your mother and she is still going to love you I'm not saying that things are going to be easy but at the end of the day its all about the baby and she is not going to tell you but deep down deep deep deep down she is happy to be a grandmother she just didn't want to be one this early but things I'm sure are not going to be as hard as you think that they are. I hope you find what your looking for and that everything for you turns out good for you and that you have a healthy baby

Answer 10

Sit her down and remind her of how she use to say that you can go to her for anything. Also, tell her that you are confiding in her because you trust her and value her opinion. Tell her that you are unsure as to what you are about to be going through and that her love and support is needed more now than ever before!!! Tell her it was not planned and a huge surprise to you and your boyfriend. Let her know that he will be there every-step of they way and that you are going to take this on in a mature and responsible manner.
