Telling my flatmate Im pregnant.

[littleblue]

Its half past twelve in the morning, I hate to get up in 5 hours and I cant sleep because I cant stop thinking about what my flatmate and BFF will say. I want to tell her as soon as possible so that she knows ill probably be moving out, but I'm also terrified of telling her and her not being supportive, which to be honest I don't think she will be. I know she won't approve of me being pregnant so young, and although I know I don't need her approval, her opinion means a lot to me.

Sort for the rant, I just needed to get that off my chest. She's not even here right now, she's at her girlfriends house, but I just want to get it over and done with really.

Maybe she'll surprise you.

If she's truly your BFF, I would be honest with her and hope she will come around, eventually if not right away. I'm sure it's a really scary position to be in, being young, not having the father involved, etc. I say give any close friends or family a chance to supportive. Like shoogars said, she may surprise you.

With your BFF, I believe that you should be able to tell her without fear of judgment or disapproval. After all, who is she to tell you how your life should look? If she is concerned, then you should allow her to explain her why and if she has any constructive advice. Her main role, however, should be to be there for you, even if she doesnt personally agree with it. As for your flatmate, I really wouldnt feel pressured to give out details. Just make sure you have all the payments and logistics of your move planned out.

You should tell your best friend! As IceQueen said, if she is really your BFF she'll end up being supportive. That said, you may have to give her some time to come around. You're both young and I'm sure this will be a bit of a shock for her. A good best friend will tell you what she thinks, but eventually should be in your corner and fighting for you, not against you. I also agree that you'll need supportive, loving people around you as you move through this whole experience. This is particularly true once the baby arrives. Good luck!

Is your flatmate and BFF the same person? It might take her a but of time to come around, But she will. She may even be a little resentful at first because you're going to move out. Just give it time. Try not to stress over things that might happen. You haven't told her. She may surprise you.

I agree with the other ladies. Tell your flat mate. You might be pleasantly surprised. I hope it all works out for you!
