I know this has nothing to do with your post, but I was reading your stuff in the quiz part, and..Your from hawaii too? That's cool..I'm rachel, 17 yrs old and 25 weeks pregnant..Also from hawaii..If you wanna talk, is my msn addy :)

The best way to tell them is to just go ahead and do it. Most often, your fear of their reaction tends to be contradicted by their love of you. Parents most often do love their children and try to be supportive regardless of the situation. Think back on how they have reacted in the past when you were in various kinds of trouble where you needed support, and most likely that is what will happen this time as well.

That would also mean that your parents can help you with a lot of stuff, such as setting up that visit with the doctor. Otherwise, ask your regular doctor who no doubt can help you.

You need to go ahead and tell your parents before somebody else tells them. Plus you will have your mom to help with the doctor's appointment. But if you don't want your mom to help with the doctor's appointment. Most of the time at a free clinic there is someone there who can help you with that.

If you dont have money for your medical bills, you can get on access.

You will have to go to your access office and tell them your pregnant,
then they will ask for proof,
so you will have to go to the womens health center,
and they will give you a test,
if positive thell give you a paper that says your estimated due date,
then you take it back to the access office,
they will have you fill out some papers,
get you a appontment to see if you qualify,
if you do, you pick your health plan, and make an appointment.
Youll have to wait a couple weeks till you get your ins card in the mail.

And access will tell you to go to wic if you want to get it,
((thats so you can get free milk, cheese, cereal, and peanut butter,))

it seems like alot of stuff, I was overwhelmed with running around, but its all worth it in the end. Good luck to you!!

If your scared of seeing the doctor on your own for the first time, take a supportive friend with you. I took my best friend with me to my first doctors appointment.
