I don't know how to tell my parents I'm pregnant😫 they will be 100% pissed off with me 😰

Why wouldn't they be happy for you?

@chocolatemomma, that's where it gets complicated. My dad is a pastor and has different beliefs and shit

Oh ok. Gotcha! I'm guessing they want you married or something.

@chocolatemomma, oh yea they are pretty strict

Oh.... Well, I hope they're understanding and can get over it quickly. You deserve to enjoy your pregnancy.

@chocolatemomma, I hope so. I just gotta figure out how to tell em first. I want to enjoy it I'm just stressed out

Just relax and tell them when you're ready. It's not like they can tell that you are.

You're an adult and old enough to make decisions for yourself. Their opinions shouldn't dictate your plans for your life.

@chocolatemomma, yea I guess your right I just really don't want to upset them but they can deal with it

Yep! They're adults and should be able to handle the news. Everyone has disappointed their parents at some point. As long as you can take care of your baby then they should be ok.

@chocolatemomma, ha yea I guess it's my turn too😂

I don't want to tell my mom or grandmother either. :/ I don't even speak to my mom but my grandma is a Jehovah's witness very judgemental they won't even come to a baby shower if we're not married and we are not. But I take care of myself and live on my own so she can't say anything.

Probably won't be the last time either. You aren't perfect and shouldn't try to be just to please them. You have to live your life. They chose how they wanted to live, so why can't you?

@mishilaashlyn, Yea its nerve wrecking to even think about...yea my parents will probably stay away. I don't even wanna tell em just keep to myself. And yes i don't live with them either so they don't get any say really

@chocolatemomma, exactly but I don't like disappointing them it's kinda scary when they mad

I understand.

@chocolatemomma, yea I'll figure it out eventually tho. Or just let em find out on their own. Either way it's whatever

Yep. Nothing they can do about it.

@chocolatemomma, nope not anymore they can't

You'll run yourself crazy trying to please them all your life. This won't be the first or last time they'll be mad at you about something. When I moved out of my parents' home, caring about their opinions went out the window. I'm grown and will live how I want. I haven't been back home or asked them for anything since the day I left.

@chocolatemomma, yea I guess your right. I'm happy about it. Scared but happy and I guess that's all that matters

Yep

@chocolatemomma, yea I'll just let em find out when they find out

I 100% regret not telling my parents early. I didn't get to enjoy my pregnancy and didn't tell them until I was SEVEN months along (small bump) and they took it sooo much better than I thought they would. But its all over now and they love their grandson

@pierced_momma, my parents are very strict and have told me how they would feel if I ever got pregnant

@caitlin.smith.marie I'm not sure how to help, but I believe you should at least enjoy your pregnancy a little

@pierced_momma, I'm gonna make sure I do

@caitlin.smith.marie if you ever need a friend you can message me. I was in the same boat

@pierced_momma, okay thanks I appreciate that
