I was 19 when I got pregnant with my eldest,my gran didn't talk to me for the whole time I was pregnant.

Now 10 years later we are back on track and have a great relationship,and she loves my daughter too. ]]> Mon, 02 Jul 2012 23:15:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41945&PID=5804458&title=young-mums#5804458 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41945&PID=5803602&title=young-mums#5803602 Author: Tasha94

Ive told my mum and shes thrilled. The scary part are my grandparents, I know straight away what they will be like, dissapointed and very very angry. I dont know whether to leave it and let them find out on their own or tell them. ]]> Mon, 25 Jun 2012 10:22:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41945&PID=5803602&title=young-mums#5803602 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41945&PID=5803592&title=young-mums#5803592 Author: carissatorbarina

I think your best to be honest and tell them how you really feel about being pregnant. With my mum, i expected the worst but when I told her how excited I was she was really supportive and excited too, and now she cant wait till baby comes! I think your family will be shocked but support you no matter what as long as YOU are happy :) ]]> Mon, 25 Jun 2012 08:40:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41945&PID=5803592&title=young-mums#5803592 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41945&PID=5803583&title=young-mums#5803583 Author: MissGenevieve

I was TERRIFIED to tell my parents. come from a religious family and parents who don't drink alcohol etc but when i told them (over the phone! we live in different cities) they were disappointed but surprisingly took it well. that was 8 weeks ago now and they are so excited for the arrival of their first grandchild. ]]> Sun, 24 Jun 2012 22:13:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41945&PID=5803583&title=young-mums#5803583 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41945&PID=5803509&title=young-mums#5803509 Author: Rexy

Congrats to you both :)
on the breaking the news, I think it depends on the type of person you are and they are. When I told my mum I was just like "don't be mad but I'm pregnant" and she was stoked. But if they're more reserved and likely to be upset, might be better to sit down and have a grown up chat.

I too "was" a young mum
I was 16 when my first was born so if you ever want to chat then I am happy to help out where I can.

I recommend antenatal for young people, found it really good and a coffee group for young mums also helps.

Good luck with your pregnancies ladies ]]> Thu, 10 May 2012 14:30:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41945&PID=5796993&title=young-mums#5796993 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41945&PID=5796873&title=young-mums#5796873 Author: Mumof1littleboy

Babyxmas-I think plunket might run young mum coffee groups now too. It's really nice having people in the same boat as you. Otherwise no matter how old you are when bubs is here it can be quite isolating. And try find antenatal classes for teen mums too.
