You were trying to get pregnant right? Congrats. It will be along hard road, and you will need support, but it is also soooo rewarding and not to mention fun!

Were you trying or is this a surprise?

I don't know what to tell you, other than tell your family and boyfriend. He especially deserves to know, and your family may surprise you and be more supportive than you think. I hope everything works out for you. Congratulations on your baby!

p.s. This may not be the best board to post these kind of questions, as nearly everyone here has been trying to get pg for awhile and would give anything to have a baby. The pregnancy board may give you more support, especially with particular questions regarding your pregnancy in the following months. The women over there are wonderful. But ignore this if you have been trying just like us, I just didn't recognize your name, and can't do the search feature right now...

congratulations as i know this is what you wanted. I dont mean to sound harsh,but i did try and warn you about doing this before you were ready in an earlier post. you are so young,im not saying that doesnt mean you will be a good mum because im sure you will,but if you remember i told you about my sister who had a baby when she was 14. it is very hard. i just hope you did it for the right reasons and you will have the support you need. the pregnancy-teen board offers a lot of support. good luck and congratulations again.
