Well it finally happened I got a call mom I am pregnant

I guess you're mom reacted very naturally 'cause it's really normal for a parent to get angry or disappointed when their daughter or granddaughter who's typically still young to get pregnant but in the end of it all there's nothing else to do but to accept and support. after all she's still your daughter right? if there's a downtime for your daughter that time is now. pregnancy is quite difficult to handle especially for girls at a young age. we all know that if you feel like you're all alone in a pit is very troublesome especially to pregnant women so a piece of advice be forgiving to your daughter but let her know that what she did is not right and make her feel your support and guidance. hope this issue will help your daughter to be more responsible and mature in making her decisions. always pray for your daughter or any of your kids sometimes a praying mother is the only answer in a family's distress.

I gone through that with my daughter 4 years ago when she was only 16 and at 17 she had a baby boy. Just let her how much you love her everyday and everything will be just fine. The only thing you don't want to say is how disappointed you are with her because she already feels that way about herslef. Things happens and you have to help them through this time in there life. The only thing I didn't allow my daughter to do is to quit school. I am veru proud of my daughter because she goes to college and is doing great. I love my grandson and my daughter.

Give her all the support that you can. She is going to need your support as her mother, and as a friend. So be both, and enjoy your grand child. Give her a little guidance, a lot of advice, and then watch them flourish.

Well well i feel much pity for your culture and social values, where is the father of this child he should be responsible to take good care of your daughter and his own upcoming new baby. Let me suppose that your own daughter is not quite confirmed that who the father is. We are all leaving our old values behind so we should also stay ready face the results as well.

Being pregnant at 17 is really disappointing. But if that would happen to my daughter, for sure I would initially get angry or be surpirised but I will never tell her to leave. I will try to comfort her because that time she would surely need somebody to be with her.

it is so frustrating and disappoint to hear that your daughter is pregnant and she is only 17. but as a mother you should get her and be supportive to her. just accept it.

Well, babies don't always come at the most opportune times. She's your daughter and so I would say you should welcome her in and support her emotionally. She needs her mom now more than she ever has. I have 4 daughters and while so far...haven't had to deal with any of them at that young age coming to me with such news...it could still happen. My youngest is 15. It is not what I want for her but I would I hope be supportive if she ever found herself in such a spot. I love her very much. I would never ever ever be disappointed in her as a person if something like this were to happen.

I think you're leaving part of the story out...why was your daughter living with your parents, anyway? You are responsible for her, because you are her parent, until she is eighteen. I don't blame your parents for being upset. Sounds like your daughter was used to doing what she wanted. Why wasn't she on birth control?

You don't have to be happy about it if that's not the way that you feel. However, since you are her mother, you really should be as supportive as you can of the situation. Seeing as how your daughter is still a child herself, she is going to need a lot of help in the coming months and years and that is really where you should step in for her. If she will allow you to, you should go with her to doctor's appointments and you should be there for her to answer any questions that she is going to have.

I have to agree with some of the other posters. Without knowing the full situation, it's hard to give advice. But it comes down to this: She's your daughter. You deal. You are responsible for her. The coming baby is a real human life, not a puppy. Provision must be made to give the baby the best start you can. Since your daughter is not of age, part of this responsibility falls on you as well. I had this situation with my son. The girl ended up living with us as her family kicked her out at 17. I became the her mother as well. I went to doctor appts, child-bearing classes, etc. We fixed up a room for the baby. We talked long, and longer, and longer. I was willing to adopt the child if it came to it, but they decided to keep the baby themselves. They lived with us for a year and a half while he finished school and worked and she stayed home with me and learned how to be a mom. Their little girl is 4 now, and our relationship is very special. But don't think it will be easy, it isn't. I have seen other girls who haven't had the family support, or the father chose to be absent. Some gave their babies up for adoption and it was absolutely the best thing they could have done for that child's welfare. There will be scars and tears - and healing and growth - throughout the process. For both of you. Good luck, and God bless all of you.

Yes, I have to say I was wondering the same as the last poster - your daughter has obviously had a slightly unusual situation anyway, not being brought up with her mother - I don't say that to judge, I don't know the situation of course - but I also don't think you can not be there, and then expect your daughter to behave perfectly. Yes, its irresponsible to get pregnant in that situation and age, but I guess when it comes down to it shes just going to need her Mom now, especially if she has no support from her grandparents.
