s1m1k1 answered Thursday August 19 2004, 4:28 pm: First of all TELL SOMEONE! Most likely your parents or maybe a very close friend. If they love you and care for you, they would help you through this. Just explain to them what happened and you don't know what to do next. Whatever you do, don't commit suicide like some asshole said was an option, that won't solve anything! After you've told your parents, if you feel like you WON'T be able to take care of a baby or even want to have one, consider adoption NOT abortion b/c there are MANY couples out there who want a baby, but that's just an option. It's your life and your descision only! Good luck, and I hope everything works out for you as well! [ s1m1k1's advice column | Ask s1m1k1 A Question ]
MicroSurjj answered Thursday August 19 2004, 3:10 am: options:
1. suicide
2. Tell ur parents and if u cant take care of the baby, put it up 4 adoption. Go to a crisis pregnancy center.
3. claim to be a decendant of the virgin mary [ MicroSurjj's advice column | Ask MicroSurjj A Question ]
bAyBeEgUrL8 answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 9:41 pm: You need to tell your parents as soon as possible and work out some sort of plan. Whether your keeping the baby, how your going to pay for the babies needs. Your parents will most likely be pissed off at first just because your so young, but then they will probably start helping you out like crazy..good luck [ bAyBeEgUrL8's advice column | Ask bAyBeEgUrL8 A Question ]
babygirl17 answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 9:08 pm: Well Sweetie..You really need to tell your mom. She will be upset at first any mom will be. But she will eventually understand. But you have options. but you really need to tell her because you need check-ups and so on to make sure the baby is ok. But If you dont tell your mom and she hears it around town or from someone else she will be even more upset with you then if you just told her yourself. Go somewhere private with her and tell her. I hope this helped a little.
When I found out i was pregnant I had a really hard telling my mom because i didnt want to her to think she couldnt trust me. but she was very upset with me at first. but she eventually realized that there was nothing she could do and now shes the best grandma in the world..
mintfroggy answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 7:32 pm: Write your mom a note- and tell her you're pregnant in that. Or ask her to drive you somewhere ALONE and tell her then, when you're in the car. Unless you're afriad she's gonna crash the car when you tell her- then that wouldn't be a good idea. [ mintfroggy's advice column | Ask mintfroggy A Question ]
paradiei3abii3x answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 6:42 pm: Well, first off, do not get an abortion! Your going to have to tell your mom sooner or later. Really, all that I can say is you probably should have thought of this before you got pregnant... otherwise, Just remember that your not in this alone. The guy that did this with you will have to pay for his mistakesz too. Hesz gunna have to do child support at age 16. Your going to need your family and friendsz and him through out this. It may seem scary now, but trust me you`ll be alright. Just gotta hang in there and tell your mom. <3 Goodluck. Let me know how everything goes.

alisonmarie answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 2:52 pm: Well, I would say that this isn't about reputation - it's about your unborn child. I realize it can be difficult to tell your mom, but she is probably in the best position to help you.
If you are concerned about her reaction, I'd suggest talking to another family member (aunt? uncle?) and asking them to be with you when you speak to your mom. You should expect some of reaction - think about how you felt when you found out; your mom will likely feel similarly.
You need to tell someone so that if you decide to have the child, you can arrange to attend pre-natal classes, get healthcare, and also get the emotional support you're going to need over the coming months and years.
You'll have to tell her eventually - or your stomach will do it for you - and I'd say the sooner the better. Feel free to email me if you have more questions or just want to talk to somebody. [ alisonmarie's advice column | Ask alisonmarie A Question ]
cailoisa answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 1:33 pm: Out of respect, I would tell her soon. I think that it is better for you to tell her straight up than for her to start to notice and suspect things before you tell her.
I got pregnant when I was 17 and waited a long time to tell my mom. She was upset, but mostly because I had waited so long to tell her.
spoiledx3shortii answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 1:10 pm: You should probably just sit down with her and be like mom i know it was wrong but i had sex and now i think i am pregnant.. its better to get it over with..
Hope i helped!!

the_haha_boat answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 12:56 pm: Sit her down and tell her. Life is going to be hard after this if your still in school, and with a baby. She'll of course be mad, but you have to let her know how you feel about this. [ the_haha_boat's advice column | Ask the_haha_boat A Question ]

xo_dream answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 1:55 am: Someday in the near future when she's in a good mood, just tell her you need to talk to her, and then just tell her. There's no really good way to say it, so just be like, mom, i'm pregnant. Hope everything goes well =) [ xo_dream's advice column | Ask xo_dream A Question ]

napalm3400 answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 12:35 am: Well did u use protection when u had sex? Do u get sick for no reason and have cravings for things? well u need to tell ur mom b4 she finds out herself without u telling her, if u wait then it will be worse. I also say for u to pray, sexual immorality is a big sin wich can end u up in hell if u dont ask for forgiveness. oh and also, dont even think about getting an abortion, that baby is a living thing and could be used greatly for Gods kingdom, abortion is murder and is a sin.

blackmamba answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 12:21 am: she may start to become suspicious, so you should definently tell her before it is completely obvious that you are in fact pregnant. just be honest with her, but be prepared to be in trouble for not telling her sooner than this. all im saying is she is going to find out sooner or later, so sooner is better.

Vanilla13ean420 answered Tuesday August 17 2004, 11:47 pm: hey hunny, 1st off i think if you have a Planned Parent Hood (deals with pregnent teens, abortions and making the right choices) near by you then you should go there and they can help you with telling your parents, i know it is going to be very hard telling your mother, but she has to know, even though she's probably going to get upset over it she will evenutally cool down and realize this is when you need her most. Dont worry girl, everything turns out fine in the end. And I kind of have a story related to your situation so IM me and we can talk!
bye girl-hope all goes well
Briguy44 answered Tuesday August 17 2004, 11:44 pm: Your mom loves you no matter what happened and all she wants is what's best for you so you have to tell her and so you know there is nothing that could make your mother hate you or anything like that do you
I hope I helped [ Briguy44's advice column | Ask Briguy44 A Question ]
*tasha* answered Tuesday August 17 2004, 11:34 pm: Just tell her..cuz when she finds out later she'll be even MORE pissed...theres no way gettin outta it.You probaly will get in trouble but that was your choice..ya kno?good luck.sry icouldn't help more!
icey0990 answered Tuesday August 17 2004, 11:30 pm: You hide the baby forever..just take one or two days..gather up your nerves..sit her down and just tell her. Its gonna be hard for awhile...but your a faml and you`ll overcome it. Also think about your chilld...you have to tell ur mom so you can go to the doctors for checkups, etc. Rep. doesnt mean everything..plenty of families with good reps go through tough times. Best of luck hun

LilMia811 answered Tuesday August 17 2004, 11:20 pm: well im 17 and pregnant. when i told my mom and my bfs mom that i was, they were shocked, but they were supportive. they told me it was my decision on what i wanted to do. so what i am trying to tell you is you have to talk to your mom about what is going on. eventually she will find out anyways, especially if you are deciding to keep it. just sit down with her and tell her what is going on. and babies are not always a bad thing, they actually bring people closer.

ElementaryHustler answered Tuesday August 17 2004, 11:20 pm: You have to tell your mom because you need to get yourself to the doctors. The sooner the better. Your mom might be mad for a little while but she will soon get over it. Are you sure your pregnant because that would really suck if you told ur mom that for the hell of it. Who cares about the rep your your own person. Spice the family up a little bit. [ ElementaryHustler's advice column | Ask ElementaryHustler A Question ]
lonliixtears answered Tuesday August 17 2004, 11:00 pm: You need to just sit her down and explain to her how you feel and whats going on. If your already starting to show shes going to know. Your better off letting her know now then letting her find out herself later.
