Someone help give advise? 🤧

Question

So today I’ll be 26 days late according to the <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android.eve">Eve</a> app. I took a pregnancy test last night and it IMMEDIATELY turned positive. I’m only 19 and my boyfriend and I still live with our parents. My parents aren’t understanding like most and the certainly won’t accept this like I’d wish. I’m absolutely terrified on wha to do. I’m completely against abortion and I wouldn’t want to give my baby up because I’d fight for every right to keep my baby safe and happy and loved. My problem is our parents. Mine are still afraid to have me drive myself around when I have a license. And his get mad at the thought of possibly having one at ‘such a young age’ telling them would be possibly the worst party about this and I’m a lost of words and have absolutely no idea what to do

Can someone please help me?

Answer

You made the adult/grown-up decision to have sex and now you’re pregnant and have to deal with the consequences in an adult/grown-up way. I know it’s hard and scary but you’re a mom yourself now. You have to just tell your parents. Talk to them one at a time if you’re closer with one of them and have them help you tell the other parent. Also before you talk to them I would have a strong plan in place as to how you plan to do this. You said you don’t want abortion or adoption so you need your plan of how you’re going to make this work. Get a job, move out of your parents place, etc.

Answer

Sorry but you will need to just bite the bullet and tell them.
Be happy with your decision to keep your baby and tell them that’s what you’ve decided and that you are going to step up and be parents together. 
There’s not much your parents can do at this stage really. 
Good luck but the longer you leave it, the harder it will be. X

First things first does your boyfriend know your pregnant? Secondly you both need to decide how your going to do this. Like moving out, having stable jobs to support your baby
Then you both need to sit each set of parents down and tell them the news and don’t take it to heart what they might say (hopefully won’t be a bad reaction) but you can most definitely do this. You are both adults and need to take responsibility for your baby now. 
I got pregnant at 20 and had my son (was a surprise pregnancy) but he was the best thing that could happen to me. Yes it was hard and I had no clue how to do this but you just do and I wouldn’t change anything. Telling my mum was hard but she surprised me and was so supportive. Once the initial shock goes for yours and his parents I’m sure they will both be on board. Good luck and congratulations on your blessing :)
Sorry this is so long lol xxx

Answer

Well, I'm not sure what to do other than be strong and power through the challenges ahead really.
First things first, sit down and have a talk with your boyfriend. Are you in this together? What can you do to make this easier for yourself? Make a plan of some sort. It might be easier to talk to both your parents, if you have a plan for what you're gonna do.
I wish you all the best and please remember that no matter what anyone will say - you can definitely do this and it is not the end of the world! It'll be hard, but you can do this 💪

Answer

My mom was 19 when she got pregnant with me. It was scary for her as well, but in the end everyone was accepting. Might I add she busted her ass working and moved out of my grandparents. She now has a 24 year old (me), 21 year old, and 14 year old, and we’re all hardworking and respectful!

Answer

just be prepared as much as you can, have something in place or a plan. it’s gonna be tough, but they’re going to know regardless so might as well just tell them. you’re strong and remember, happiness is welcome not needed.

Answer

Everyone always thinks their parents won’t accept the baby but they will over time. I agree with everyone else, get some things in life into order and then tell them. You might be surprised at how supportive they will actually be. After all, it is their grand baby. It will probably take some time for them to come around. I highly doubt they will completely disown you or cut you out. If they do well it’s their loss and they will regret it.

Answer

I know adoption would be heartbreaking but maybe it’s something to consider? 
I personally know so many couples who are desperate for a child to love and nurture but can’t get pregnant. 
It would be the ultimate act of love and selflessness to give up your child because you want to give them a better life. You could pick parents that have good jobs, live in good neighbourhoods and could give your child opportunities that you couldn’t because of how young you are. 
Maybe you could even look into an open adoption so you could visit and see how your child is thriving and doing well because of the sacrifice you made.
That way you could give yourself a chance at life, being a young mother will make everything harder for you. 
I’m not telling you what to do, giving up a baby for adoption would be incredibly hard but you would always know you chose your child’s well being over everything else.
This is not going to be an easy decision, I hope you consider all options and do what is right for you ❤️❤️

Answer

You are legally an adult. They can't do anything about it. They may make you move out and get your own place, be against it at first, etc but you will be okay. They will have to accept it eventually.

Answer

Was you using contraception?
