Making me feel bad ;(

I'm 19 and a FTM in a 4 year relationship living with my boyfriend in our own for two years. He is 25 (please don't give me grief over our age difference because I was legal to consent to be with someone over 18) he is a great guy and I live him so much. He works so hard but we just found out that I'm 5 weeks pregnant. The few people I've told have made me feel like a disappointment and like I can't do it. Which makes me sad and ruins out happiness. It's also making me feel bad about telling my family and other friends because of what they may say. ;( should I feel like crap about this??

I got pregnant with my 1st at 18 and had her at 19 and I was scared to tell my family as well, they were disappointed but I still had their support. Do not feel bad it happens all the time, you can still have a wonderful life it just takes a bit more effort and dedication. Babies do not ruin dreams they only delay them, good luck and congrats.
