Quoting Ash ;]:“ They did a papsmear because i was going to go back on birthcontrol. and then they did blood work to check and see if i was pregnant, forgot to mention that. lol”
yeaa my dr did a papsmear when i was getting back on BC but i had to ask for a pregnancy test lol...it seemes like that should just be something they do no matter what when your getting back on BC

I had a doctors appointment the day after my boyfriend kicked me out of our house and my mum graciously let me live with her again I was only 17. I got the test at the doctors and she called straight after my appointment and I told her then. She just told me to come home and have a cup of tea. She was incredibly supportive and she knew what I was going through having had two kids by the age of 18. Now she's all clucky and the clothes come piling in!
I told my dad when I was about 18 weeks pregnant. He lives in Australia so I had to do it over the phone. He just asked if he could take the father. Typical dad response. But then he said that if that's what makes me happy then he's happy for me. Biggest shock since I found out I was pregnant!
The extended family were the worst really, most of them were happy for me and sent their congratulations but my two aunties started pressuring me for an abortion and saying "That poor baby to have you as a mum"
Lucky my mum put them in their place!

well i took the test with my bf who is now my fiance (we live together) he was really excited and i was just in shock im 18 and going to be 19 in aug. it took me a couple of days to tell my mom i told her over the phone and i started to cry because i didnt want her to think i was too young to be a parent. she just told me that a baby was a gift from god and everything would be ok. i was worried to tell my dad because he waited me to wait until i was married and wasnt to happy that i moved in with my fiance befoer i was married .lol when i told my dad was when me and my fiance went over there for dinner before we ate i said a prayer and at the end of it i was so ready to get it out that i was pregnant that i said and youre going to be a grandpa again lol no one knew that was coming out that way.

I told both of my parents when I came home from college for a weekend. I'm only 19 and I was scared out of my mind to tell them, I thought I'd be such a disappointment in their eyes. I started balling right after I told them and my mom just held me and told me everything would be alright and that God does everything for a reason! They were both very understanding and they are helping me so much through the pregnancy. My mom is even getting super excited and buying a bunch of stuff already and I'm only 15 weeks haha! Just tell them early that way it doesn't look like your ashamed of it, you shouldn't be anyway babies are a blessing!

LOL my mom knew I was pregnant before i did /=
I had gotten blood work done because of my medication
not knowing they do a routine pregnancy test everytime,
and they called my house and thought my mom was me and
told her. So my mom actually told ME i was pregnant.

I kinda had it easy but not really cuz it never really came out my mouth that I was pregnant... I actually fainted in Sam's Club (bulk store) by the food stand!! She was like Nicki!!!! The reason why young women faint is cuz they're pregnant... you PREGNANT???!!!!! So I really jus shook my head yes instead of really telling her but I still had to explain!!! Still was scary and the car ride home was kinda quiet... But we're cool now!!! Then she said she already figured cuz when she was pregnant with me she couldn't eat burgers, and I stopped eating them...

I found out I was pregnant when I was about 5 weeks a long. I couldn't figure out how to tell my parents, so my friend suggested that I hint to my mom that I think I might be and ask for a pregnancy test. So I told my mom "Hey, I think I might be pregnant." she laughed at me and said "You haven't been showing any signs of being pregnant." Because she expected I'd be puking everywhere (but luckily I haven't had morning sickness yet and I'm 7w5d now ;]) and so I gave my friend a few dollars to run and get me a pregnancy test, I peed on it, waited for the little pink lines, and then ran out of the bathroom and handed it to my mom. She took it, looked at it, and walked away to go have a cigarette. I thought I was in a lot of trouble; but I wasn't. She wasn't angry, but as she put it she wasn't jumping for joy either. She told my dad, and they've accepted it. I've got an ultrasound on the 30th to make sure everything is going the way it should be, and I'm due February 7, 2010

I told my mom the day after I found out. I just recently found out on Wednesday (6.5 weeks) and I told my mom on Thursday. I was scared of course,plus I told her on the phone. She told me she actually already knew, which I knew she did. She was/is supportive and she stayed calm with me. I thought she would act the opposite.
