If I was to be pregnant how should I go about telling my mom?
My mom have anger problems and I don't want her to snap but I want to be straight up wit her but I don't know how to say it. I'm thinking I should just go straight to it and be like "mom i'm pregnant" then again I don't know... what should I do? :confused:

If you are pregnant, just tell her, she will get mad, and get over it.

I agree with everyone else. If you are pregnant and planning on going through with the pregnancy, then she'll notice sooner or later anyway. Just sit down with her, maybe bring your boyfriend along for emotional support (after all, he's responsible too) and then tell her. She may surprise you.

Now, if you aren't pregnant, then please use birth control. If you are in a steady relationship then go on the pill, use a condom, heck use two. Unprotected sex causes pregnancy, which you may soon learn first hand.

Good luck to you, I hope everything works out.

I became pregnant when I was 18. I was still living at home, and I was very scared to tell my father. I know this was bad, but I told him in a restaurant. He couldn't yell at me because we were in public. I started crying and asked him what the worst thing that could possibly happen to me was, and he said, "you could be pregnant." I said I was and he started to cry and said that he thought he raised me better than that. No guy has ever broken my heart like when my dad said that. However, my dad loves my daughter and wouldn't change me having her for anything.

Here is another plan...

It's so close to mothers day... You could give her a card that says grandma in it... that is probably not such a good idea either.

To be honest with you though it's probably just be to sit her down and deal with what she says. I know it's the hardest thing you'll ever had to do, but it must be done. Even if you chose to not have the baby or give the baby up for adoption, you'll need her support.

Them are good ideas that one about the card is funny. I will do just that and of course I'm going through with the pregnancy because the baby is innocent and haven't done anything wrong. Me and him did this so we got to go through with it thanks

It's great that you're willing to take responsibility for your actions.

Good luck to you hun!

Make sure that you and your boyfriend have a steady job.

Diapers, clothes, formula, carseat, changing table, toys, highchair, stroller, doctor's visits, medicine, crib, blankets, pacifiers...they all add up!

I know you will make a very good mother!

If your mom sees that you are willing to take FULL responsibility for this child I don't think she would be very angry with you. She might when you tell her but let her know that you will be supporting this child, financially and emotionally.

Again, GOOD LUCK!

If you mean use two condoms at once, bad idea. Something to do with friction actually makes two condoms at once more likely to break. If you meant use two methods like the pill and a condom then I agree, great idea

I know, I was trying to point out how important using protection is. Maybe I worded it wrong, it was meant as an eye opener, not a serious suggestion. Although being on the pill and using a condom, always a good idea.

I was on the pill but I quit using it because it made my period stay on 4 like 2 weaks.
But thanks I should have done other protections also but I don't know me and myboyfriend been togther gor 9 monthes and before I used the pill he did that withdrawl methode and nothing happened but this time was diffferent

Honey, the withdrawl method doesn't work, really. Use a condom, or talk to your doctor and find a pill that works for you. There are many different brands and types of Birth control pills, sometimes it takes a while before you find one that works for you. But please, if you aren't pregnant this time, don't take any more chances. At least, the very least, use a condom. Please.
