I'm around 8-9 weeks pregnant. This is my first time and I'm extremely nervous. My family is…

You'll be okay , I'm going thru the same shit w. my family . when my mom found out , she asked me why'd I wait so long as if she wanted me to get rid of my daughter . as long as you stay strong for your baby , fuck them !

you have us ! There are plenty women on here (including myself) who are very supportive and willing to talk to you if need be. I know people thinks they NEED family, but if they're putting you down then do what is best for you ! please don't terminate the pregnancy, I'm here to talk if you want

Thank you for the kind words. Needed to hear this!

Just remember, they may be upset with you and cause all this drama and stress on you now but when you start showing and get close to due date, they're going to be all "my grand baby!" ESPECIALLY once the little precious baby is born. They will NOT resent you or be upset at you forever. Just in the very beginning. Then they'll want to be in the baby's life and spoil him/her :) keep your head up. It will get better!

That's reallyy what I'm praying for! Thing is, my mom isn't like most mothers. She's abusive. I wouldn't want my baby around that. Luckily, the father is supportive and says he's willing to do what it takes.

Its your body! And like @mommy2vaijordinkerri said, "you have us"!! Support is what you need, and you will get plenty of it here. I've seen so many posts of ladies on here that went through hard time and now things are better. Its gonna be a rough patch, but we will help, wether it be through just listening, giving our advice, or being a shoulder to cry on. We will help. Its really good that the father is going to be supportive, its nice to have someone near you that gives you support. Don't take that for granted. Also, fyi: you have to tag the people that commented in order for them to get the reply.
