Pregnant & Scared
I'm 16 years old I'm a junior in high school. On August 18 I took a pregnancy test and it came back positive according to my last period which was July 7 I was barely around 5 or 6 weeks pregnant. I live with both parents and their are the most strict parents ever. My sister is about 10 weeks ahead she's pregnant too. The difference is she graduated highschool and college, had a job and a boyfriend my parents liked. My parents hate my boyfriend and I have no money or anything. My boyfriend is 19 and has a job. It's been months since that happened but I still haven't told my parents I'm suppose to be around 19-20 weeks. I still haven't told them or seen a doctor I'm so scared I don't know what to do. I wasn't sure if I really was pregnant but now I'm beyond sure because I feel little bubbles and fluttering in my belly.. I don't know what to do

You'll have to tell the parents or they will find out by the size of your tummy. But first, Tell your sister. She's more likely to be understanding and may be willing to be moral support when you go tell your parents. At 5 months, you are likely showing already and if not, should be in another month, so even if you decide to do nothing, the news will be out of the bag soon by Mom noticing your pregnancy. It is important that you see a DR for yours and babys health. You need to be taking prenatal vitamins for one thing. In todays time, there are many options and much info and help for teen Moms and you need to get hooked up with an agency in your area that specializes in this.

Yeah you need to talk to your mom asap. Maybe do it when your alone with her so your mom can break it to your dad in a way she best can do that so he wont freak.
You also absolutely need to go to the doctor NOW. You can make an appointment for prenatal care.

I would recommend you to talk to your parents and if you are too scared talk to your school counselor, there you guys will come to an agreement and everything will go smoother, is important for them to know because you need special care now that you are pregnant , you should want the baby to be as healthy as possible therefore you need to see a health care provider, be positive, things like this happen all the time just be brave and talk about it as soon as possible to your parents, your mom was once pregnant and im sure she loves you now, she will surely understand what you are going through I whish you the best
