Told my Mum. . . Need some advice??

[mummyluv]

So basicly, yesterday I got the courage to tell my mum about my pregnancy and it couldn't of gone worse!!!! I told her and she just stood there and the first thing that came out of her mouth were "Ok then, when are you getting rid of it" Like she automaticly assumed I wasn't keeping the baby. After I told her that I was she starting yelling and screaming at me and kept going on about how my life is over and that I'm going to end up single and alone stuck in a dead end job with no qualifications.

How can I make her see that my life isn't over and that it's just begining! And that if I thaught that I couldn't achieve everything I wanted then I wouldn't be having the baby!!

Best thing to do is show her. Prove her wrong hun. Lot's of parishioner automatically assume our lives are over. But only we can determine what's going to happen

Oh not the best reaction though, but i know alot of friends who have had the same reaction from parents and they've always come around in the end...

How far along are you and how old are you? Are you from the UK? x

I was 16, and after I told my parents, I immediately packed my things and stayed at a friends for a few days. Once I got back they had gotten used to the idea and were a bit more supportive. Just give her some time. She'll come around.
