You keep the baby. Plain and simple. You are an adult now. Makes so difference what your mother thinks or wants.

It depends on the boyfriend. If you know that you two want to be together keep the baby. If you don't want to be together. You can still keep the baby. I did. I had my first at 19. And I love my 10 year old son. There is nothing wrong with keeping your baby because you aren't married. My mom didn't like his father either. it ended up not working out. But I wouldn't have changed my mind for anything. Having a baby makes you grow up though. You have this little life that depends on you, and you only. You don't have the freedom to do what you want anymore. But again, I wouldn't change anything. But, I would tell your mom. She can be there for you more than you think. She could even get excited about it. It's really up to you. And how you and your boyfriend feel about having a baby.

I have read too many of these types of questions. You have disresepcted your parents/mom, slept with this boy, and now you are pregnant, unmarried, and your mom does not know! Give me a break! This is becoming way too normal for comfort.
First of all, you need to tell your mom. Do it now! Second, you and your boyfriend need to make a decision for the future of this child. Are you and your boyfriend going to seal your relationship with marriage and raise this child as it should be raised? And when you say "keep" the baby, what do you mean by that? Are you saying that your mother would opt for abortion? Hell no! That child deserves to live. Life is already growing inside of you and neither you or your mom have the right to destroy that life.
What you need now is guidance.

I wish you the best!

It's not up to your mom it's up to you and of course you keep the baby what kind of a question is that? Are you really willing to take someones life away just because of a stupid decision that YOU made? It's not the kids fault. Yes tell you mom, your an adult now so if your mom doesn't approve forget about her then, she'll come around someday. You move in with your boyfriend unless he doesn't care about the kid either then you get a decent job and you raise that kid on your own if you have to there is a lot of places you can look into for help with single moms and first time parents. But just think of what you are about to do and I hope you make the right choice. Keep in touch I would really like to know what happens with the baby. Please. I hope you figure out whats best for you and the baby. Congratulations and I wish you the best of luck.

Think carefully ...
I was pregnant at 18 and wanted to keep the baby, but my mother forced me to abort. I was against abortion. I am 28 now and do not know where I would be if I had kept the baby. The guy I "loved" at the time is SO history and I am now married and successful. The person you are in love with at 18, is a different person than who you may be in love with when you are a grown lady. And a baby would keep you having to deal with him forever.
I am not FOR abortion, but I do want you to think about what you are doing, and you MUST tell your mother. It's just fair. You can surely keep the baby no matter what your mother says, lawfully. But, keep the relationship sharp between you and your mother. She will be there even when your boyfriend is not. Keep your mother forever!

Okay here it goes. Your Mommy's little girl. How sad. I think its so, so ridiculous when people think they cant go on with their life the way they want because of how their parents may react or their parents wanted a different life for them. Your Mom cant change your boyfriend, your children, or your life. You are an adult and you can do what you want no matter if she approves or disapproves. Of course keep your baby!! that is the dumbest question. Why give your baby up because of your ***** Mother? you need to go on with your life and make it what you want. She CANT choose your life only you can......Your not a little girl anymore so grow up and start making your own decisions. Plus you know sex and get you pregnant, you should have thought about this before getting knocked up if you are dumb enough to think about keeping or not keeping your baby!

You ready to be a mom? If so keep it, the baby has nothing to do with whether or not your mom likes the boyfriend or not. Let me guess, you still live at home. You need to tell her, and if she's blaming him for this remind her that it takes two to make a baby. This is what I told my children as they were growing up...If your adult enough to have unprotected sex than your adult enough to deal with the consequences. Don't be afraid to talk to her. She may not like the idea at first but you are her daughter and she should understand that you need help with this decision.
Good luck in whatever you decide.

My mom doesn't like my bf. I'm 22. She treats me like a baby and I hate it. I've been trying three months to get pregnant. Me and my bf are very supportive of whatever happen. Because we both decided. I would definitetly talk to my mom after I know I'm far along. Cause the rate of miscarriege is big in a 12 weeks period. I will just relax and go to the gyno so that everything is well. And yes you are an adult now. It's your decisions, your life.
Keep The Baby!

18 years old, you are an adult. I understand you may still live at home but babies are not disposable. You knew what could happen if you had sex without protection and you and your boyfriend now need to grow up and take care of your responsibilites. I don't mean to sound harsh but I hate the way our society thinks they should just run and get an abortion because of their own stupidity. I know this won't make your mom like your b/f but she will have to get over it. She loves you and just wants the best for you. She may not be the happiest to hear the news but you can bet she will get over it and be very proud of you if you step up and take care of yourself and your baby. I know I would if it were my child!!

Your 18 yrs old, that means your old enough to make your own decisions and live on your own. Aborting your baby just because mommy doesn't approve of your boyfriend is ridiculous. Your mom will just have to get over it and accept what life has given her. The two of you should tell her together so that she sees he supports you. After he shows her that he'll make a good daddy hopefully she'll come around and accept it.
Good luck, just be honest:)

Do not abort! I would keep the baby, and if you are unsure about raising the baby you could allow some family who cannot have children the joy of having a child through adoption. Just because your mom doesn't like your boyfriend is no reason to stop a life!
