I am pregnant and don't know how to tell my mom?

Question

I just found out I am pregnant yesterday, and i am worried on the reaction my mom is going to give me. I am 19 yrs. old I have been with my boyfriend 2 1/2 yrs now and we both go to college, and are deeply in love.....But besides that I think my Mom will be mad . So how should i tell her?

Answer 1

just come right out and tell her she's gonna find out anyway you're 19 years old it's time you make your own decisions

Answer 2

Sure, she'll be mad. She has high hopes for your future and certainly a baby will interfere with your plans. Just try to predict what she will say and think about your responses so that the conversation can be just - a conversation, not an argument. You are pregnant and don't need the anxiety.

So consider these questions:

Are you going to continue going to school? Some women are embarrassed. Don't be. Continue your schooling and do research to find daycare. If you need to take some time off once the baby is fine, that's okay. But don't stay out more than one semester.

Will you need transportation to and from the ob/gyn and how will you get it?

Will you and your boyfriend get jobs if you're not currently working?

And so on...just consider the questions you'll get so that you can have well thought out responses. But know that your mother is the least of your concerns now. You have a child that you must provide for and I mean more than just prepare a home, clothes, food and shelter.

You have to make sure you are healthy and remain healthy. So eat well and get lots of rest.

Don't stress. Drink herbal teas, chamomile tea and keep your environment calm. Your baby will reflect that.

i replaced into wayyyyy to scared to tell my mom. i presumed approximately sending her an prolonged text cloth whilst we weren't jointly, yet i replaced into too scared to try this. My next plan replaced into to assert mom, my abdomen hasn't been feeling marvelous and that i've got been feeling undesirable, can we bypass to the surgeon? and then in the journey that your surgeon exams you out or does a blood attempt, he can permit you recognize men that your pregnant and you will possibly be able to act such as you probably did no longer know which you have been. What i ended up doing replaced into announcing mom, i've got not started my era and that i do no longer know why. And shop announcing there's no way i need to be pregnant. Then while your mom starts announcing what in case you're pregnant, say which you recognize your no longer yet she gets a attempt to experience risk-free.and then take the attempt jointly, and additionally act supprised. This labored out verrrrryyyyy properly for me. sturdy luck and congrats! :)

Oh Jackie, honey you are an adult, you have been with the father of your baby for 2 1/2 years and while you may not have planned on getting pregnant, it happened. I think you and your boyfriend should drive home this weekend (it is Easter) and just tell her that you have some important news to share with her......tell her that you too are shocked (if you are) and "Mom you are going to be a grandma".... I hope she takes it well! Good luck and congrats to you and Daddy...

Answer 5

I have been in this same situation. I got pregnant at 19 to, was with my boyfriend for a couple years, and was living with him at the time. I knew my mom would be upset, and I didn't tell her until I was three months. By then she had already knew. When I finally talked to her about it she was upset. But because I'm her daughter she eventually learned to deal with it. So my advise is to tell her as soon as possible, because shes going to find out eventually. The sooner she knows, the better. So you guys can figure out what to do. Trust me the anticipation, and frustration you have ain't going to get any better the longer you wait.
I hope this helps, good luck

Answer 6

I think that you should sit your mom down and just tell her. She might be mad at first but she will have to accept it sooner or later .I'm pretty sure when you were younger your mom always told you that she will be there for you when you need her or at least something like that .So here is the time for your mom to be here for you and understand what is going on . But don't expect her to be happy right away because for some parents it takes a while for them to adjust to certain things .

Answer 7

I would start dropping hints. Then I would tell her you want to set up a dinner with her because you have something to tell her. By this time she probably has the idea in her head and will have had time to work through it before you drop the bomb on her so her reaction shouldn't be so bad. She will be prepared. Good Luck!

Answer 8

my birth mom went through the same thing and she found that it was easier to tell her mom no matter how hard it was. your mom most likely not be mad at u but afraid for u and upset at your decision . shes your mother and she will love u no matter what. also think about the baby . dont u want it to have both parents. if u and your bf are truly truly in love then consider marriage . best of luck and hey congratulations on your baby .

Answer 9

If you love each other that much, that your having unprotected sex, why don't you just get married, then you can tell your mother the "good" news, instead of the bad. Oh, too young? well if your old enough to be a mom, your old enough to get married. Think about the baby, more than you worry about how your mother will react.

Answer 10

This may not be what you may want to read, but you are going to have to tell your mom sooner or later. Eventually the pregnancy will show in time. Kinda hard to hide a child in the womb.

Best way to to tell your mom is catch her in a good mood and break it to her gently. Maybe when you are having one of your mom-daughter moments. She may still get angry with you, but in time she will get over it. Who knows? She may warm up to the idea of being a grandmother.

Answer 11

If you want to be treated like an adult in an adult situation, then you need to talk to your mom like an adult. This weekend ask your mom if she has time to sit down with you and your boyfriend to have a talk. (Turn off the cell phones, house phones, tv, no interruptions). Tell your mom that you and your b/f have wonderful news, you are expecting. Explain to her what your plans are (assuming you both have discussed this) and what the future plans are. Good luck to you and God Bless.
