It's a Mom's World Home

that sounds not so scary for a young mom :)
if you are going to ask me, i got pregnant at 19 yrs of age 5 months ago. it seems hard to face the fact that i am an expectant mom at the early age but was more of scared to my mother that time. my father left us when i was 4 and my mom is totally over protective that i should not experience what she and my father had. i was really scared and my mom found out i'm pregnant through my grandma who's close to me. we had misunderstanding with my mom for the past 2 mos. of my pregnancy but later on, she did realized i need her the most during those days of my first trimester. it all ends well, my fiance is in school and working at the same time for our future, nevertheless, we haven't come across desperation to of hardship and trials with our relationship and yet we never argue about being parents at early age. :)

i can relate with your experiences. in my case i got pregnant also before i got married at the age of 25. we really planned it and i also had same fear of telling my parents about it. i took two preg test to be sure before telling my parents. during the second try, i got up early and went to work. i already told my husband about it and planned to tell my parents after work. when i got home, it went inside my mother's room and just showed her the preg test result and she did not understand because the tool was new to her.. hehe.. (new technology). until i explained to her and she got angry and cried but in the end she was also excited about the baby and my father just took it lightly.

I also had a very similar experience. I also tried 2 pregnancy test kits with different brands, just to be sure. I stayed in the restroom for some time and cried my heart out, bcoz I wasn't ready at the time, I was 21 and recently finished college. Good thing my BF (currently my husband) was there also waiting for the results of the pregnancy test. To my relief he was sooo happy when he found out. I told my mother first, she got mad, I could see she was teary eyed. She told my father about it the next morning. My father went to talk to me and took it very calmly, but I could see the disappointment from his expression. He asked me what our plans were and told him that we'll get married.

I was in the car with my mom on the way to the store/ her house and i straight came out and told her "mom you're going to be a grandma, and im not telling dad".

It wasn't until I was about 9 months pregnant that my father and I could have a conversation but now he love love loves my daughter to death.

If i could have waited till Xmas I would have gave them shotglasses with grandma and grandpa on them and a bottle of booze

I just started crying randomly on the couch (I was very emotional) when my mom said "eesh what the hells the matter?" I screamed out im pregnant! LOL, not so easy telling my dad though... my mom called him at work and he came home.. but the first thing he did was hug me. :)
