hiding pregnancy

[cccttt]

I haven't told my parents yet I am living with them and my boyfriend lives with me as well I'm 14 weeks pregnant and scared to tell him what suggestions do people have for a good way to tell them please ?

I'm not sure how old you are, my guess would be under 17 years old. I was always told from the time I was 13 was that if I thought I was adult enough to lay with a boy/man, then I was adult enough to accept with the "consequences" (at that time consequences meant the possibility of STDs or babies) so I stick firmly by that. Idk if you exactly wanted a baby, the sounds of it tells me otherwise, but I don't know the scenario. And I'm sure that you didn't come here for  lecture by somebody that you don't even know.

That being said, you're going to be a mother. You accepted that as a possibility when you had sex with your boyfriend, and now it's time to be responsible and tell your family. As harsh or as scary as it sounds, you don't know what your parents' reactions are going to be, unless they've discussed it with you already. I'm 25, so fortunately my mom had been barking up the baby tree for a couple of years now and was very excited when we told her. But you can't hide the news from them forever - literally. Your body is eventually going to sell you out, regardless if you're ready to tell them yet or not so there's no use dragging it out.

I was 19 when I got pregnant with my first, I was scared to death to tell my mom. Of course I was a full-time student in college and had a full-time job and with my BF since we were 16 so it wasn't like I did anything that wasn't bound to happen but I knew she wanted me to finish school and she'd be upset with me. I didn't tell her, the lady at the hospital violated the HIPPA law by congratulating my mom at the grocery store before I had a chance to tell her. I was relieved but still really sad that I let her down, I cried when I told her and she said she already knew.
Either way, there's no going back your parents are going to be grandparents and how they take it and decide how to view this wonderful blessing is up to them. Congrats.
I'm now 29 and expecting my 2nd child, of course I'm more stable now and in a healthy relationship the sharing of the news was even more exciting this time around. We waited until my daughter's 10th Birthday and made her "I'm going to be a big sister" t-shirt and that was also our baby announcement to our family as well. Of course I never thought I'd have another one but it really is a blessing. I hope everything works out for you and know that your future will always be bright with your kids involved.

I don't know how old you are but if your 18 or older and you have a decent boyfriend then I'm sure your parent will be excited. If you are 17 or younger then your parents are going to be disappointed  more than likely. But you should tell them no matter what

You might be suprized. If u arent sure how to tell them you could try a letter, explaining your fear you cant just say it, or even a congratulations grandma and grandpa! Have you seen or arranged care yet? Take that responsibility and show them you're on it. And if they allowed your boyfriend to live with you theyve gotta be pretty open to the fact that yall are sexualy active i would think...

Don't know how old you are but it's hard at any age Especially if you're not married lol I'm not and it was hard the 1st 2 months of pregnancy was touchy my mom was pissed off but know she's over it she can't wait to meet my little man .. Try not to worry it's hard but they have 7 more months to get over it !! God bless

I would tell them right away... chances are they are going to be really happy when yu tell them! You shouldn't stress out it doesnt do any good for you or the baby... the longer you wait the more explanation you're going to have to do.... your boyfriend should be fine and should accept the baby but if he doesnt then maybe it wasn't meant to be... just know that no matter what happens you're going to have a little one who will love you unconditionally

Being straight forward with parents is always the best. I would grow some balls and tell them both right away. Having your parents support is one of the best things to have. Or tell the parent your least scared of and he or she can help you brake the news to the other one. When I told my mom I handed her flowers told her I loved her then handed her the pee stick. I knew she wouldn't be upset so I chose a sweet way to tell her

I would tell them sooner then later. The longer you wait the harder it's going to be for you to tell them.
