Perhaps you should tell her mother first. Since she already knew that you were having sex it won't be as much of a shock to her. She can then help you with breaking the news to the other parents.
Your g/f should visit her OBGYN asap to get a blood pregnancy test and to start prenatal care.

ok we was planning on tellin her first...my parents wont be so hard to tell because they actually enjoy grand babies and one of my sisters and a step sister had had kids before they were married so i dont think they will take it as hard as my fiance's parent will.......yeah i forgot to mention shes not my g/f shes my fiance her parents know about that already and we didnt get engaged because of this we got engaged like 3 weeks before we foun out she was pregnant...but any advice to how we should tell her mom first?

sit her down and say mom.. something happened and you may not like it but there is nothing we can do about it now.. i have taken a pregnancy test and your gunna be a grandma.... DONT expect her to be happy right away .. she will be upset first.. then disapointed.. then she will be soo happy that she is gunna be a grandma.. thats how my mom was.. i just told her and she cried and was like i knew this was going to happen and she wanted to be alone for about a week and now that i am only a month away from my due date she couldnt be happier.. she tells EVERYONE who will listen that she will be a grandma.. and she always wants to touch my belly and talk to her grandson! just know that if she takes it hard its OK she is the mother and she is just looking out for her daughter but she will come around

well ok thanks for the tellin the mom advice but what about her dad? hes a rough everythime ive talked to him he keeps sayin "you better take care of this girl shes my only child" and ive told him that i will i will which i think is going to make it harder to tell him......hes already threatened to throw me in jail before he even knew me and her were engaged

lol dads are mean.. they care about thier daughter and they want to do anything to protect them.. which means you being with his daughter is a bad thing.. there is no easy way to tell him.. i would talk to the mom about that.. maybe have her tell him because she will be able to calm him down more then you would be able to .. or at least have her there.. and DO NOT yell at him if he gets angry that will make things WAY WORSE.. you basically take what he has to give you and then tell him you are sorry that it happened but it did and there is nothing you can do about it and that you plan to be there the WHOLE time for both hisdaughter and for your kid.. you have to make that clear he doesnt want a kid to knock up his daughter and leave

oh yeah probably should have mentioned that they are divorced lol and her mom doesnt like talkin to him because hes always trying to get laid.....sorry lol thought i should mention that

dads will be dads, and youll notice if you have a girl, you wont like the boyfriends either, especially if they knock up your 17 year old baby girl. Talk to her mom and just tell her the truth, no sence pussy footing around it. Show her the preg test, then you dont have to say anything,lol. things will work out, just be prepared for the initial shock and anger from your parents and her parents. gl
