ok...I know I was on here not too long ago talking about how I may be pregnant...and well...it's happened...I am! I missed my period and we took a test this morning that confirmed it...my dad and I are best friends and he's always told me not to lie to him...and I won't now...I'm just afraid of how to tell him...my fiance' and I are getting married pretty soon and my dad is consenting...it's just taking awhile...my fiance' has been living with us for a couple of months and my dad really likes him....I don't want him hating him.....so I just need some advice and a little help here...thanks so much!!! Smile

The best way to tell parents is just to be open and honest about it. If your boyfriend is living with you and your dad, he is probably already fairly certain you two are having sex. With sex comes pregnancy. So this can't be a huge shocker to him.

Good luck!

Thank You!
yeah he pretty much knows that my fiance' and I have sex...but I talked to him just a little bit ago and told him I needed to see the doctor...he said alright and understood...I still haven't told him...but when the doctor tells me yes or no...for certain...then I'll talk to him about it. I will more than likely tell him before hand...we're just that way...I can't keep things from him....I'm just still a little jittery about it all...

thank you so much for your help!!!

If you have had a positive home pregnancy test, you are pregnant. But I understand wanting to wait to tell him. I waited to tell my mom for a little while. I was pretty scared and I did't even live with her.

You will be ok. It is nerve wracking but you can do it. It sounds like you are really close with your dad.

Ah...well...
Yeah I am. He and I have been through A LOT! My dad is the first person I go to if I need help with a problem (other than the love of my life) and vise versa! I'm his baby girl and we both understand eachother. Whew...OK....well I guess now...the only thing to do now is just...tell him. He wants my fiance' to get his license first and get a job. He has to change jobs and also get his license renewed and such because he just moved here from another state...so....yeah...he just wants to make sure I have a good man to support me. Which I totally understand. I just wish I didn't have to tell him before I was married. It would be SO much easier to tell him after he and I got married. I wouldn't feel so guilty about it. But I'm happy none the less and so is he. I'm sure my dad will understand...it's just a matter of telling him...and letting him cool off afterwards.

Hi
i was pregnant at the age of 13. And i have no parents as they both were in a car crash when i were in playgroup.My brouther who i call dad was the one that i told about my pregnancy.
He was really angry with me and my partner who i am still with and have been with from the age of 8.I am know 10 weeks pregnant with my second baby.
I sat my brouther down and let my feelings out. Afterwards he walked out but he came back 3 days later and wanted to be a part of the babys life.
What i am trying to say is it is better to tell your dad know more then later.He will feel angry but he should cool off the whole situation.Afterall u are getting mrried to the babys father.

:) I Talked to Him!
I'm 16...so...no...I'm not 18 YET...haha..still got a couple more years to go. I went on my gut instinct and told my dad last night. I told him everything and he just kind of sighed and patted my leg. He said, "I can't yell at you because then I'd have to yell at myself because I allowed you and your fiance' to sleep in the same bed and I allowed him to live with us..." He wasn't angry...He said he's going to take care of me...I know he's scared...just as I am...and I'm so happy that he didn't yell...I'm already stressed enough. Sexxybexxy I am so sorry about your parents! But that's awesome that your brother has been supportive and taken care of you guys! And congratulations!!!!!!! Very Happy!!...My fiance' and I were best friends for about a year and then started dating...we've been together for almost two years...so not quite as long...not neearly as long. But we are very much in love and happy as can be! Life is wonderful! Very Happy thank you ladies for all your help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very Happy It is very much apprieciated! I will keep you all updated!!!
