I am 19, in college and completely pregnant... HELP?!?

My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and half. He is 20 and has a great job, I am 19 and have an okay job. This is my second semester in college and I'm actually making great grades. I found out that I'm pregnant this past Sunday. If I tell my mom and dad I will get kicked out of their house, and if He tells his mom then he's getting kicked out of his house. How do we tell our families knowing that we're not going to have anywheres to go?

(i already know that i put myself in the situation and that i shouldn't have had unproctected sex, but the deed is done and that isn't the point in my question. I need advice, not judgement)

Please help.

Update:

I am definitely keep my baby. I dont believe in killing an innocent child and i wouldnt be able to live witht he emotional distress of choosing to kill my own child.

    Hunnie, There is no room for blame or judgement here. I went through a similar situation to you and I was 21, My mum was so furious and did not speak to me for months, but this is about YOU and your boyfriend, I think you both need to talk about this situation before you confront either parents, be sure hunnie you know what you want.. This outcome will be what you make of it, This baby is not a mistake it happened for a reason, think about this carefully and I wish you all the best. Remember this is your body and your choice (and boyfriends) the parents might be angry but if you two stand your ground and have your decision things will get easier.

    All the best and GOOD LUCK!! I hope you keep the baby hunnie!!

    im sure that if u talk to them they will be there for you. or you could wait until you start showing, and in the meantime save as much money as possible and if they do kick you out you two can get your own apartment. either way your gonna hve to move in together soon enough. maybe drop some hints to the less strict parent so it doesnt come as a bombshell! maybe say something like, we had unprotected sex and theres a chance i might be pregnant, or something along those lines. Good luck and remember, they are your parents, and they love you, no matter what. God has a plan for all of us, and this baby is part of yours!

    I know this might be a hard situation for you guys since you are young and didn't plan this pregnancy but let me tell you that this, You cant hide it for a long time.... I know it might be hard to tell your parents but life isn't perfect sometimes life puts you in a hard situations were it just makes you stronger... Tell me about it since I was in a similar situation but I was only 17 at that time and The person i thought that loved me did me wrong and left me all alone in this situation at least you have the help of your guy trust me it might look really hard at this point but you will grow out off it because when you see the precious little one in your arms you will forget about everything you went through I could tell you in experience that a baby WONT ruin your life or plans.. I finish H.S while i was pregnant and got a job and now a currently going to college also it might get hard sometimes and you might think that your world is ending but be strong your parents might get mad at first but if they truly love you and know that life isnt perfect that EVERYONE makes mistakes because thats how life is.... they will forgive you at the end because your their daughter and you have their future grandson or granddaugher inside of you... Dont Worry!!!! Good Luck...

    You know, some times our parents can be more understanding than we think. My mom found out and was willing to let me live with her temporarily until me and my now husband got our own place. Now that you're going to be a parent you're going to have to figure out a new living situation anyways so do that. Start saving up a deposit and first months rent, if you're able you should have that within a month. Get that process going, let your parents see that you're trying to act mature now, then break the news. This may not be fail proof, so timing is everything. Like I said though, parents are more understanding than we like to think.

    Stay in school, just please don't drop out. If you're doing so well in school, you have a chance to graduate and get a good job to help support your child in the future. Although, you are 19, you seem to show more promise and seem to be headed in the right direction than many other young girls out there who end up pregnant at 19.

    Just tell your parents that you are pregnant, have your boyfriend there with you when you tell them. They are going to be mad at first, but at least you are in college and keeping good grades. I could understand if they wanted to kick you out of the house if you weren't in school, but they should give you and your boyfriend a chance to save some money so you two could get a place of your own so you two could raise your child in your own home. Like I said, it's not like you're not out there trying to get somewhere in life...You're in school and you're doing well with your grades, you show promise! Good luck to you sweetheart. I hope everything goes ok with telling the parents.

    I was in the second semester of college and 18 when I found out I was pregnant. My husband (now) and I both moved out of our parent's houses, moved in together, and got married before I even told my parents I was pregnant. But we'd been together for almost 3 years...

    You have to tell your parents... they might not be as mad as you think they will be. IF they are, you guys can move in together....

    School will be ok. Tell your teachers though (just in case you get morning sickness and have to run out of class). Most teachers will make exceptions for pregnant students for midterms finals and some assignments, especially closer to your due date.

    Good Luck!!! email me if you need any advice or help.

    Im also 19, in college and pregnant so I know EXACTLY what u going through. My mom let me come live with her once she found out i was preggo though. I suggest maybe u and ur boyfriend getting a place. Try and take care of this on ur own and then tell ur parents. Mayb if they see u takin care of business on ur own, they can do nothin but have respect.

    if u 4 sure think they're gonna kick u out..then i would wait as long as possible b4 u tell them so u and ur bf can save up $$ and think of where u are going to live...but even if they have directly told u that theyd kick u out if u ever got pregnant..they may have been trying to scare u..now that u are they may ot go through w/ it..they may surprise u and help u out

    good luck

    Your parents may be more supportive than you think they are going to be. You should figure out the best way to sit them down and do it. Point out that if this is their grandchild planned or not. The baby is coming even if it is a few years earlier than anyone wanted. Best of luck.
