You're a big girl, step up and do it! This also may be a good time for them to meet your boyfriend.

Just sit them down and tell them straight. You are old enough for them to respect your opinions. If they are extremely strict, this is just something that they will have to deal with. As your parents they should understand. You should never be afraid to tell them anything. Choose the right moment, when they're both in a good mood and tell them. After the initial shock you should be glad that you told them. Good Luck!

Er...last I checked, there were still ways to end an unwanted, unwed pregnancy conceived with a man to whom you are not married, that might potentially cripple your future and your relationship with your parents.
Roe v. Wade still hasn't been overturned, remember. There might be no need to tell your parents ANYTHING if you aren't ready for marriage or a child yet.

You are an adult. You could call them or write a letter/email if you don't feel you can do it face to face. BUT, as a parent you are going to face some super hard times and getting through this situation like an adult will get you started on the right foot! It's going to be uncomfortable, but you can do it! :) Buena suerte!!! :)

well sweetie your 23 not 13 and so there isnt anything they can do other than grump so I wouldnt worry to much. Just go over and ask your mama if she wants to through you a baby shower? She'll get the point. :O) Thats how I told my mom with my first!

Sweety, you are a grown-up. There's never a better time than the present for them to meet your boyfriend. Tell them. They may be disappointed that you aren't married, but if they love you-which I am sure they do-they will adjust to the new addition to the family.
Bendiciones, querida mamita.

There is no magic way to tell them so that they dont get disapointed in you /you just have to muster up some courage and tell them but it may be easier to do it over the phone

its will be very hard but you had to tell them its will be OK because you are 23 it will be different if you was 16 they might be OK with or maybe you and your boyfriend should them together because he will need tell his parents too

Call your parents and tell them you have something serious you want to talk to them about.
When you sit down with them, tell them straight out. They may be upset, they may be angry, they may cry, but at least you'll have done it!
When their heads stop spinning, and you start showing, they'll warm up.
