Scared to tell my mom

posted 30th Nov
Hi I'm 17 and 19 weeks pregnant, I live with my boyfriend (whos 19) at his dads and have done since Feb. I have been looking at the forum about telling parents and most end well but my mom is very different not only does she not really like children (except me and my sister) but before I pregnant I was joking around and goes
if I ever have anything important to tell you I will tell you while your on the laptop cause you dont listen to a word I say to you.
Her reply was
well the 2 worst things you could tell me is your pregnant or you have aids.
I said
surely aids is a lot worse than being pregnant and she just gave me a look that said No it really isn't.
I love my mom so much but I really don't think i can tell her!
please help maybe just moving country will be better? ( that was a joke) (i think )

I would just tell her with a blank face then leave.

Congrats, Grandma.

Well, she's going to find out eventually. Might as well tell her now, instead of pissing her off by keeping it from her for so long. She might be angry, but the anger won't last forever.

At least you don't live there. So what's the worse or is it worst lol she can do? Roll her eyes, scoff, yell, pout? Tell her and give her time.

I was 17 when I got pregnant with my first.. I was SO scared to tell my mom.. I waited like 2 months and took about 6 pregnancy tests before I got the courage to tell her.. she was really disappointed but was still there for me and when my daughter was born everyone was over it and fell in love with my LO  

I am now almost 21 years old and I was MORE scared to tell my mom about this pregnancy than my first one! haha.

But the best thing is to just come out and say it.. you can't hide it forever and the sooner you do it the less stressed about it you'll be. I hope it goes okay!

Just go ahead and tell her! She probably says those things because she isn't really sure what she'd actually do in that situation! My mom said she'd murder my boyfriend and kick me out, lol. She's now, literally, like my best friend.
Give her some credit   And if she does get mad, give her some space after you tell her and see if she comes around. You do have to tell her eventually.
The situation sucks, but try and make the best of it.
You can PM me if you need someone to talk to

I understand why you would be nervous, I would be too. But she will get over it, yeah she might be pissed at first but I really doubt that it will last long.. She will get used to the idea and love her grandchild I am sure. Its best to tell her now before someone else does, or you get too big to hide it lol. Shes gunna have to find out about it eventually so no need to stress yourself out about it for months.

My mom was like that too, know she is so excited for her grandson to arrive. The faster you get it over with, the more time she has to adjust to it before your child is here. Is there someone who will help you tell her?

I was 18 when I got pregnant with my first and hadn't lived with my mother for over a year. I just called her up and told her. I knew she wasn't going to be happy but I honestly didn't care, either, considering it was in no way her responsibility. She was pissed off and called me every day for a week telling me I needed to get an abortion, then she just got very excited. She's a decent grandmother, too, even though she was a smurffy parent.

You will have to tell her sooner or later. She will be very upset and angry and she will cry. But the fact is you can't really change it now. It will be easier for you to let her cool off since you do not live with her. When I told my mom, she stopped talking to me for over a month because I wouldn't get an abortion. Eventually your mom will come around, because she's your mom! Just do it and get it over with!
