When did you tell your parents you were pregnant?

Question

GIRLS MY AGE. How long did you wait to tell your parents you were expecting a baby??? I just found out I am 5 weeks pregnant at 21 (almost 22). I wouldn't be so concerned if I didn't still live at home, and me and my partner aren't married, but have plans to move out in the near future. We both have stable jobs and are really excited about this baby, although it was unplanned, we are extremely nervous to tell our parents. Anyways, when did you tell them? Vote, and comment below your story and expierences. Please I need help and advice! I don't know when to tell them.

Answer

I'm about the same age (just turned 20) and I'm in a different situation since we're married and live 3 hours from home, but I was still super nervous to tell my parents lol. I told them at 6 weeks, 2 weeks after I found out.

Answer

I was 20 still living at home. I told my SO (he was 26 at the time) the night I found out & we told our parents the next day which was Christmas Eve. Both of our parents were excited. My first was planned.
My second, which I'm pregnant with now at 22, was unplanned. My SO & I weren't too happy at first bc we weren't in a good place (relationship wise) at that moment. I cried thinking my mom would be disappointed, but she wasn't! She put me in a better mood about the whole situation. Not too sure how his mom took it, but both times, neither were mad/disappointed.

Good luck ❤️

Answer

My moms my best friend, I told her the day I found out both times. I was 19 the first time and 22 this time! I'm a stay at home mom though and I love it 💗 my hubby makes good money so it worked out for me lol. I wasn't married yet the first time but we were engaged and living together.

Answer

I live with just my mom and we have a close bond. Also, I'm colour blind so I needed help seeing if the test was positive lol so I told my mom right away.

Answer

I'm 21 (almost 22 also) and found out at 5 weeks 2 days. SO and I had gotten married literally 5 weeks before that! We were so nervous to tell our parents but we both did right away just to get it out of the way. They all ended up being very excited for us.

Answer

I was 25 with my first I'm 27 now will be 28 when our next (and last) baby comes lol. Our prents knew we were trying both times but we told them and our siblings right away and they were all thrilled and surprised haha. I know we're older and married but let them know your plans and how excited you are and hopefully they'll jump on the baby train

Answer

Of course she had things to say but what was done was done. I mc it but in the end judgment and words wont reverse time

Answer

I was way to nervous!! I was engaged at the time and they are super religious so I nearly died when telling them. 
I was already 16 weeks when I found out and I was 18 weeks when I told them .. it took me 2 weeks to work up the courage!
