One thing at a time. You don't need to worry about how to tell your parents or whether to have an abortion yet. The very first thing you need to consider is whether or not you are actually pregnant.
You are going to need to buy a pregnancy test. Your age does not matter. The clerk might raise their eyebrows, but who cares? They don't know you. Tampons, condoms, pregnancy tests - these things are bought every day at pharmacies and they have no right to judge you.
When you get the test home, or a friend's house, breathe. Open the packet and read every word of the intructions. You'll want to make sure you do it correctly.
If the test is negative, great. Wait a week or two and if your period still hasn't come, take another test. It can sometimes take awhile for the pregnancy hormone these tests look for to appear in your blood - if you read the leaflet in the test, it'll tell you whether you can take it as soon as you think you could be pregnant, as soon as you miss your period, or two weeks after your missed period.
If you retake the test and it's still negative but no period appears, you'll need to see a doctor. Ask your regular doctor what his/her policy is on confidentiality since you are underage. If you aren't happy with their answer, you can get tested for pregnancy elsewhere - such as Planned Parenthood. Once you know you are not pregnant, then you can safely see a doctor with your concerns.
If the test is positive, you'll want to see a doctor to confirm the test. Again, try Planned Parenthood or call your local health clinic. If you are definitely pregnant, then you can explore your options. A doctor or other professional can explain all that is on offer - surgical abortion, abortion by pill, adoption, or keeping the baby.
It's a big decision to make, but worrying about it now could be stressing you out - and causing your period to be late. Basically, you need to get that pregnancy test because whether you want to abort or keep the baby, it's best to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
Be brave. You can do this.

Go and buy a test - pharmacists won't judge you, and lets face it, you'll never see them again in your life. You could also go to the doctors - it's illegal for them to tell your parents anything without your consent, even though you are underage.
Abort if you want to...but...don't do it if you're not sure. You want to spend forever regretting it. If you can't live with the baby, you could put it up for adoption?
Finally, good luck, and don't panic :) Everything will be OK. Mail me at any of the addys on my profile if you ever want to talk =)
Blessed Be,

Ok well...if you go to the doctor they dont have a right to tell your parents I dont think. And that shouldnt be the only thing u should be worried about. Was the guy already sexually active...If he was you can have a STD. (We watched a movie on abstinance today in TeenLiving) But if you LOVE this child enough you will have it and put it up for adopition. because how would you feel if you werent here and you were killed for your mothers mistake. You wouldnt like it. But also your body might not be able to carry the baby so you might not even be able to have it. But please go get tested. Nothing will happen unless you do! Good Luck

dont get an abortion if you are pregnant, go to a drug store and buy a pregnancy test and take it, do it more than once because they might not always be correct, and dont think your too young to buy one, who cares about what other people think, your being responsible to find out the truth aren't you!?! if you go to the doctors its confidental and they will not tell your parents, you have to. xox

i think you should just live with it! abortion is like murder. i think you should get a test and see what the results are. but eventually your parents must know if you are. i think the sooner the better.

Hey, if you go to the doctors, they won't tell your parents unless you tell them too. Don't worry about that. I think you should keep the baby and parent it because if you get an abortion, you are killing a soon to be human. What if your mom aborted you? How would you feel, since you wouldn't have been born? Just think about it and decide what you want to do. Hope I helped :)
