How do i tell my mum i am pregnant?
Answer:
There isn't an easy way - and she's probably not going to be happy.
Perhaps if you have an older sister you could tell her first and go to your mum with a 'United Front'. But you're still going to have to say 'Mum, I'm pregnant'.
Don't let it get on your mind for too long. The sooner you tell her the sooner you find out her reaction.
if you want to go through with the pregnancy just talk to her and let her know as soon as possible. you will be surprise on how parents can support you. yeah, at first they might get all mad, but they usually turn around and help you. just sit her down and come straight out with it.
i was the same age as you and i told my mum through a letter my mum was ok about it she just give me a hug but if i could go back i would tell her to her face
There is no easy way. Just do it.
tell her, and then say im sorry im a lil hooch mom i cant help it! and use a flippin condom!
WOW... GOODLUCK
Sit down with her when you are both in good mood and tell her straight. Whatever you do don't just leave a note or something; I knew someone who did that and it ended with more trouble than it was worth.
If your mum loves you, she will support you in which decision you make, good luck.
Stop worrying about it... I know its a big deal!! But, she will SOOOOOOOO find out eventually! Just one night after dinner or something just start talking about it and be like mom how would you feel if I were pregnant?, because I am.
It doesn't really matter how you tell her, as long as YOU tell her and not someone else and that you do so SOON!
The best way is to be very direct about it, something like:
"Mum, I know you're going to be mad and disappointed in me, but I have to tell you the truth, I'm pregnant."
Be prepared for her to be angry or upset at first. She might yell at you because she is angry that you have done something that will affect the rest of your life. She may be very sad about it. But if she is a good mother she'll come around and help you out and take care of you and even be an excellent, loving grandmother.
I know this is hard for you, but it is very important to tell your mum as soon as possible so that you can get good prenatal care and so that you don't risk her finding out some other way.
I was the same age. Its not eazy you just have to do it and the sooner the better. I waited, and that was not good for my baby. So for the sake of your baby, do it soon. Your mum will know which doctor to call and what steps to take.
Well, you must ask yourself, What type of mother do I have? Telling people news you know they do not want to hear must be done when they are not receiving too much bad news that day. I would say tell her while she is cooking. Ask to help, she probably think something is wrong just by that action. Know that she will cry and she will scream, but her love for you will not allow her to disown you. Please say something. Do not go through this pregnancy alone and feeling guilty. I promise you, a weight will be lifted off your shoulders once you tell her. Remember a baby is blessing. Later
By the tone of your answer I assume that you are the product of the infamous 'single parent family' other wise you would also have to tell your dad. Lets face it ...you have just f***ed up and got what you deserve.
I would write a note and leave it for her one day when you will be gone for a little while (but preferably not before she has to deal with work). This will let her work through some of her reactions before being face to face with her.
Let her know what you are thinking of doing and how you are feeling. I wouldn't put the name of the daddy in the note, or if you do/she will know who it is. Ask that you be present when she talks to the daddy/daddy's parents.
If you are really uncomfortable with talking to her at all I would talk to the school counselor or Planned Parenthood and have someone there for the discussion. Although if you are meeting at Planned Parenthood she will probably know the reason.
You need to tell her as soon as possible though.
Do you want to tell her in person? Lunch is a great idea.and say I have to eat nutritionally...now.because...
I'm eating for ...two!
....and do you think she'll be ok.won't freak out and start yelling hey, I'm going to be a grandma or something..
If she's far away, call her and again start out.nice and see how's she's doing...if she's not well, don't tell her so directly.
..otherwise, you could send her a card..happy grandma to be card..would be a hoot!
Honey, I know you're scared, but you're just gonna have to say...just blurt it out, don't beat around the bush. Sure, she'll be disappointed, but not as disappointed than if you say nothing, hide the truth or worse do something bad to the baby. Best of luck and congratulations.
i think the best thing you can do is make her a cup of tea/coffee and when you give it to her say "can we have a chat mum cos i have something very important to tell you" she wiil probably be stunned, she may shout or be hurt but at the end of the day she will realise that there is worse things in life than being pregnant. once the initial shock has worn off she will be able to go over all the options with you and help you make an informed choice about what to do next. whatever you decide to do about the baby you will have to make an appointment at your local doctors - you're mum can go with you if you want.
the sooner you tell her the easier it will be for you - i know it will be hard but you will feel better afterwards cos it must be terrible keeping news like that to yourself. good luck.
It's never easy. I was 22 when I got pregnant, with a stable job and a partner, and I still was nervous about telling my mother- my advice is to tell her. In 24 hours, you will have done it and know that she knows, rather than just being worried about when to mention it.
You will be shouted at, probably ignored for a while, and expect this because you have done something your mom will not approve of. But, once the shock has worn off, she will be the best source of help you can imagine, because she has gone through it before.
Be sure about what you want to do school-wise, she will be less likely to go off the deep end if she knows what you have planned with your life once you have your baby.
If your mum knows you have sex, no problem telling right? Well not true, nobody's in your situation, so they don't understand. If she doesn't know you have sex, it could be harder. Just explain how you feel and hope she understands. She had to tell her mum she was pregnant with you, didn't she? She won't be hard on you because she knows what it is like. She might be mad for a day or two, but she'll get over it and help you. So, remember, just relax and sit her down. She might put you on the pill if your not already so it won't happen again.
Good Luck!!
have you decided what to do with the baby yet? that might be the best place to start. And telling your mum is gonna be really hard, but just do it in a sophisticated and mature way so that she doesn't think you are too young. She is definitely going to be angry but remember just give it time.
its ur choice if u want to keep the baby u keep it if u want to get i took away talk through it with ur mom i was 14 when i was pregnant but my mom made me have an abortion.
by you sleeping with this guy shows that you are old enouug to make your own desicions and that you are a young adult. hopefully your mom will see this and understand as she was once young and after all she is a mother herself and would hate for you to be alone in this situation.
i know of so much people who didn't go to their mom because they were scared about how they would react so terminated it and their moms were upset cus they wasn't able to help their daughter in such a huge desicion. my advice tell your mom and keep the child.
don't try to lie about it or cover it up. They will be happier if they find out from you and not one of your friends or their parents or a sibling.
I had a incident where I didn't want to go to this dance @ my school and told my parents that it was the same day as my cousin's 1st birthday party. The day before(the day of the dance) my friend said to my mom... Hey where's Chloe(my name), is she at the dance? and my mom got mad because I lied to her and didn't tell her that I didn't want to go.
Well, you need to find a way to tell her right away. If you can not muster the confidence to tell her, you must find someone. If you want to keep the baby, you need to get in for prenatal care and get on vitamins. Even if you are not sure right now, you must act as if you are going to keep the baby and take care of your body and the developing baby. The first tri-mester is critical in developement. If you decide not to keep it, the vitamins won't hurt you.
Now, for the actual deed. She is your Mom. She does love you, even if you are having a rough go. I would want to know if I were going to have a grandchild, even if my daughter were 16. Just be prepared for the yelling, and 'what were you thinking!!'.
The sooner you get it over with, the better.
good luck with that
the same way you just told me; minus the, "how do i tell my"... in other words: MOM! I'M PREGNANT!
Tell her your pregnant and your wiling to take care of your responsibilty.
just tell her, hopefully u hav a understanding mom
Tell her as soon as poss, the longer you think about it the harder it gets. She will maybe be a bit mad at first but thats only because she cares about you, she will calm down once she gets over the initial shock. If this is what you really want then she will be there for you to support you and pass on all her knowledge and experience to you. Good luck and take care!
im 33 now and i got pregnant young.. i hid my pregnacy till the day i went into labour coz i feared telling my mum/family.. she came home from work to find me in bed in labour.. and you can imagine what shock she got.. she rung a ambulance and came into hospital with me.. and i had a little boy... she was great.. my dad wouldnt speak to me.. or my brother.. i cast shame on the family.. and to this day i cringe to think about it.. and wonder how on earth i got threw each day.. feeling every kick.. oh god i dont want think bout it.. but now i would just sit her down and tell her.. please dont do what i did.. i regret it today many years later..
your mum might get mad first but she will carm down.. and if your that worried write her a letter and leave it with her... and then talk ... i feel for you chick.. do it the right way eh ! good luckn dont leave it to long ... x x x x
You just tell her. . . you have no choice in that. Your choices will come after you tell her. Keep the child or put the child up for adoption. I would recommend the later because through an adoption agency your medical expenses would be covered by the adoptive parents and they certainly would be in a better position to take care of a child financially and with maturity. If you decide to keep the child you MUST establish paternity and file for child support. You would also need parenting classes, a job, and financial support from others. You possibly could qualify for WIC, ADC, and welfare. You MUST finish school. . . no question.
You have a tough road ahead. You've made a BIG mistake. Now it is time to step up to the plate and be responsible for your sake and your child's. Lots of decisions. Remember. . . you have some time to make the right decisions. Get outside advice from people you trust (your pastor/priest, school counselor, a social worker, mental health professional and most importantly your doctor). Don't rush into ANYTHING.
