Well the first advice is have you been to the doctor? if not i'd go asap. That away you can get on some prenatal vitamins and see how far along you are for sure. As far as tellng you parents i've figured the sooner the better that away it'll give them time to warm up to the fact that ther 15 year old is having a baby and by the time the baby is here hopefully they've accepted everything. GL and keep us posted. and congratulations.

Im 16 and 7 months pregant. Im due january 17th 2010. i have been with my boyfriend for 2 and a half years and we lived 2gether for a year. My dad passed away this july and he was my world i never got 2 tell him. My mom never appoved my boyfriend because he just turned 20 in september. It was the most hardest thing 2 tell my mom and i waited way 2 long. I was 5 months before i could tell her because i new she would be really upset and possibily not talk 2 me. I didnt live with her and only seen her occassionally so she never notice my weight gain. My advice tell your family a.s.a.p trust me its the best thing you could ever do. The longer you wait the harder it will be. Make sure u make a doctors appointment a.s.a.p because there could be something wrong and you wouldnt even know. i told my mom by saying " i have to talk 2 you and its probley going to be the hardest thing im ever going to have to tell you ... then i said i am going to have a son and showed her my altersound."

If you need any more advice add me hotchick_1_stacie@hotmail.com

Best wishes to you and your new family arriving.

Congrats on your pregnancy! I'm guessing you've taken a pregnancy test? Do you have any idea how far along you are? I was 18 when I got pregnant, so I was a little older than you but I can definitely relate to not knowing how to tell your parents. Is there anyone in your family that you really trust, besides your parents? I'm really close with my mom, but I was terrified to tell her I was pregnant. I went to my aunt, my moms sister, before my mom. She helped me figure out a way to tell my mom and really gave me some good advice.I dont know how your parents are, but they will probably be really angry and shocked for awhile, mine were..but they will get over and eventually fall in love with that little baby growing inside you. My mom has told me she asks god for forgivnes everyday for wanting me to terminate the pregnancy at first. Regardless, you need to get your butt to a doctor :) If you think your more than a few weeks along, its probably a good idea to go to your local grocery store or drug store and buy some over the counter pre-natal vitamins until your OBGYN can write you a prescription. Be warned though, the pre-natals made me SUPER sick. If they do for you too, try taking them in the evening with dinner :) Good luck!
