Ask her if she could speak quietly with you for a bit, with no one else around if you prefer. Always consider the situation and your mother personality and think of the better way to approach it.

It may take some time for your mother to absorb the news. It would be much harder in circumstances where your parents mightn't accept the news positively at first, for they worry for your future. But either way, your mother will be wanting to be supportive of you in your decisions. You must first find the words that you want to say to your mother. Something along the lines of ''I have something I need to tell you. I found out I'm pregnant.'' Then be prepared to deal with any sort of reaction that might come to play. It helps to tell your mother that you understand their feelings etc. But you must also tel her how you feel. Talking through your decisions will make everything a lot easier in the end. The most important thing overall is for you to protect yourself.

Start off slowly, don't come out right away- if she doesn't know already, start off by telling her you had sex. Explain what happened, why it was you got pregnant. Remember that almost everyone has a first time, and she'll be aware of that- she might even be glad that you told her instead of hiding it. I've been through this situation before personally. You'll be okay. Stay calm, don't sound all over the place. You can do it!

When you are pregnant you should fond your child before they take it from you!!! Your mum is perhaps not interested in this and you just should ask her first, if she likes your boyfriend. But be ware that she won't make you brake up when you really love your boyfriend.

Be honest and do it sooner than later. I would sit her down, let her know it is something important. There is no easy way to tell her so do it the best you can, be conscious of your feelings and hers

You can let her know about it. Just sit and talk. Chances are, she might get angry at that moment, but after all she's your mother. She will understand you.

The easiest thing to do is to just sit with your mother, no matter where, and tell here. Say things like, "mom I have to tell you this because I knew you'd want to know.' anything of that measure will not only please here at first, but lift some weight off your shoulders.

The hardest question for many women. I know I have been asked it many times. I think there are many ways: 1) to sit down sometime when you are both calm and explain it to her 2) to write her a letter or note that you can leave for her to find or send to her 3) consider asking a friend to help and either tell you mum for you or preferably be with you when you tell your mum 3) to leave a subtle hit somewhere she might find it e.g. a positive pregnancy test, a letter from you obgyn, an appointment letter for an ultrasound

In the simplest way possible. Tell her what happened and your decisions based on those events, I am sure your mother will understand and care for you and try to help to the best of her knowledge
