Best thing is just get it out there really. Just be up front, beating around the bush will only make it harder.

well they are going to flip out on you because that is part of their job. But you just need to suck it up and tell them anyway so you can get the care that you need. They will deal with it

I was 21 when I got pregnant and my mom didnt talk to me for 2 weeks after that. Just be an adult and tell them. If they get mad give them space and hopefully they will come around. Thats all that you can do really. Good luck

Best advice, don't hide it and just come out with it. The sooner the better.
Sit your parents down and say you have something important to talk aboutand tell them "I'm pregnant"
What happens after that isn't predictable.

I sent my mom a picture of the pregnancy test with my second. haha.
but me and her are very close, she just responded with, "yours? you're dumb. let me know when your appts are."
and my dad, we are not close at all.. so i waited til i had a sono, and sent him a picture of the baby. all i got was "that's cool"

I was 19 and married when I got pregnant and still was scared to tell my mom (I told her when I was like 5 months and start showing lol)
If I could do it over, I would have told her sooner. Its so much easier to get it over with. She's going to find out eventually, and she'll be even more angry if you wait until the end and are that much more unprepared.

I bought two bags of my moms fav. candy and pulled her to the side and handed her one. I said "heres one bag...and if you dont beat my ass...I'll give you the other bag" and she said "how bout you just give me both and I kick you're ass anyway" and I just told her "I'm pregnant." At the time I was living with a friend and her mom to finish school and turns out my friends mom had told my mom a few hours earlier(they're really good friends.)

The wost part was when my step dad found out and was very pro-abortion and let me know through screaming that I "NEEDED" and abortion. But I stood my ground through him screaming at me and refused an abortion. But now he understands that an abortion wasnt the right choice for me. My SO and I now own our own home and while we appreciate any help they give us here and there, we really dont need it. My stepdad gets along with my SO now and is pretty excited for his granddaughter to be here.
All in all while it may suck for awhile at first, chances are they will accept it at some point.
