Ok i'm pregnant and i'm only 15 years old and I don't know how to tell my dad Embarassed because I live with him and I haven't told my boyfriend yet... The only person who knows is my bestfriend leslee and it was still really hard for me to tell her but I needed someone to talk to about it... I feel so sick all of the time and my dad is starting to wonder why I am throwing up almost every morning... I just don't know how I am going to tell him! I feel like I am going to die! So if there is anyone out there who could help me find a way to tell my dad please do so

Re: I'm Pregnant
Hey, i'm really sorry that you are in this situation. I was in a similar situation, only thing was I was 19, and my dad was still upset with me. What I did, was said "dad, there is something that brian and I want to talk to you about" and his response was " you are pregnant arent you". And, I was .. He was upset at first, but got use to the idea. The thing that you have to remember most is that you can not upset yourself too much. That just causes the baby to get stressed, and can cause a misscarriage. I sure hope that your dad is an understanding dad.. Good luck to you..

Please Help
Well I think that i'm just going to wait a while to tell my family and my boyfriend because I really need to think about what I am going to do... I know that my dad will probably kick me out and my mom won't take me so I will have to move in with my best friend leslee! I'm starting to gain a little weight now and my dad had to take me shopping last night for some new clothes because my old ones are getting way too tight for me... I think my dad knows that I am trying to hide something from him but he wants me to tell him when I think the time is right but i'm not really sure when that time is and if it was up to me I would hide this until I had the baby... My dad has made me stay home from school for the last 2 days because i've been throwing up and he thinks that I am sick I really hope that I don't throw up tomorrow morning or if I do I hope that my dad is still asleep so I can go to school because i've missed too many days already and when my dad finds out I will have to go to a school for pregnant teens... Please help me

Sweetie, I dontl know if you are still here. But I would love to talk to you. My name is jennifer and I got preg when I was 16. I told my mom and she was disappointed, but that wasn't the worst part, my mom did not raise me, my grandmother did. And she went right over me and told her. My grandmother told me she was going to kick me out, disown me, and never accept my child, and she did neither of these (well she kicked me out when I was 7 mo, but that was for the fact that I was going to marry the "loser" that she hated. But she stuck by me, and one thing about my grandmother is she always holds a grudge, but with me and my son she didn't, she even tried to give mike a chance, but for him he felt it was too late, because he knew what she had thought of him. But i'm sure your dad will do the same (he'll accept you and your child).

Hope to hear from ya,

jennifer Laughing

Ok i'm only 3 weeks and 4 days pregnant and i'm starting to show a little bit but before I got pregnant I was getting bloated also so could it just be from being bloated? Because I didn't think that you were supposed to gain weight after only 3 and 1/2 weeks....

Yes, it is possible to gain weight, but it isn't from the baby. The baby is bearly big enough to be seen on altrasound. I gained weight right away with my first child, but it is because I wanted the world around me to know that I was pregnant, I wanted them to see my tummy, so I tried to shove it out there, and I started eating alot.. Which is a no no.. I have n't lost the weight from my first child yet. And I have had 3 more since him, and I didn't gain hardly anything with them,.. Hope this helps a little.

Told My Dad And Boyfriend
Ok well I finally told my dad and he took it better than I had expected he told me that he would do anything for me and my baby I am so happy.... And he even took me to the doctor yesterday :d but I also told matt and he broke up with me Sad I mean I knew that he would freak out but I didn't think that he would go this far... But I am going to his house tomorrow I am so excited about that but I don't know if we are going to get back together I really hope we do but he just doesn't understand that this baby is a part of him too you know? I mean I could understand if he needed a little time to his self to think about this but what I can't understand is that he would even think about breaking up with me I mean because this is the time that I need him the most... He says he still loves me but I really don't know what to believe anymore because I think that he has got another girlfriend already because I talked to his bestfriend yesterday and he said that matt liked a girl named nina and I called matt last night and he was talking to her on his cell phone and I heard her say tell her that your grandma needs to use the phone (his cell phone is really loud) and I asked him who he was talking to and he said nina and I don't like her one bit me and nina got in a fight before and I messed her world up and I am so stressed right now that if I have to I will do it again if it depends on me getting my man back... My boobs are really sore right now Shocked its really crazy i'm 3 weeks and 6 days pregnant now Smile I feel like i'm going crazy... I mean because i'm scared but i'm happy you know?

Bye

Oh im so happy that your dad is standing behind you. !!! That is awesome !! As for your boyfriend, im sorry that he is being that way, I was thinking well maybe he is just in shock, and needs time to think, but when you mentioned nina, I was like red flag.. Sweetheart, maybe you dont need a relationship where your world is built around distrust. You can't always be thinking " I wonder what he is doing" or what he and nina are talking about.. Well, you have your dad behind you, and that is all that matters right now.. I think that is the most important thing. And please, like I said before, try not to stress to much.. I know its hard, but in a few months you will feel that baby kicking inside you, and I tell you, there is nothing in the world that feels that cute !!!! Good luck to you... I wish you all the best.

my sister became pregnant at 14
I know its hard but it sounds like your dad already knows but of course he doesnt want it to be true or come out with it right away....I hope you and your dad have a good relationship and i dont think he will kick you out....When my sister became pregnant at 14yrs old my mom kicked her out and sent her to our aunts but after the baby was born she came back....I've learned something parents, grandparents even friends sometimes really dont accept us being pregnant....I was disowned living in my car until i was 7 months pregnant and I was 19 yrs old....it was hard than I moved to a shelter but as soon as the baby came out....its like they forgot everything and welcomed the baby with open arms.....and from alot of stories that i heard it sounds like this is true for alot of people.....Talk to your dad and your mom if shes around and let them know and make a decision whether or not your going to keep this baby.....and stick with it....whether they kick you out....yell or scream it doesnt matter in the end when that baby comes no one can deny an innocent child especially grandparents....trust me they will come around
