Good luck sweetie im sure they will come around my patents did my daughter is now almost eight and her grandma and grandpa spill her rotten.  I think your boyfriend being there is a good thing and is ok for him to be scared. His being there will show your parents that he's being responsible and not going to leave you stranded

Its best to tell them with the baby's father so they will know he's going to be involved.

Aww , you'll be fine . I was 16 & pregnant, my parents were extremely upset and disappointed in me. But, they did come around & my daughter is now 4 years old and everything to them! I absolutely love my parents they are super supportive, I also made them proud by finishing school & Going to college as well as finding a good job. . .

Yes do it one at a time get the easy parent first but if you just found put today you have time to come up with the plan cause they are going to ask about school and work and you don't want to stumble threw it you want to seem like you can handle it even though you may be scared and if the babies father can be there it would be better so you guys can be in it together
