Quit worrying what your family thinks, secure this child legally, go to court get custody, set child support and visitation, before he does and takes your baby, sounds like your very immature, so you better grow up and prepare to be a single mom, if you don’t want a relationship with this guy quit stringing him along, tell him you don’t want to be with him.

That happened to me, but it wasn’t a one night stand. I knew my now husband for only a few months. I waited to tell my parents until I was 5 months and couldn’t hide it anymore. My mom was livid and screamed and yelled at me and my dad was pretty quiet. It was hectic because of my mom, and I ended moving out, but now things are fine - almost 12 years later. <3 <3 Find your moment and time when you’re comfortable with telling them. You’ll get through it. <3

If they were this scary extremist Christian that I was afraid to tell them I think I’d opt to tell them he’s my friend and we decided to have a baby. No need to mention the one night stand, and you aren’t actually lying. You’re friends now and you decided to have the baby.

Coming from a Christian; if they don’t still love and accept you or love and accept the baby, they aren’t really Christian’s. Yes, you had sex out of wedlock and had a baby. Jesus loved all sinners and we are called to love everyone like Jesus did, not love those who do no wrong. If they know the Bible, Jesus ate and sat with liars, murderers, etc. so if they are going to treat you badly or be mean because of this, they need to re-examine their faith.
Be like the British Royal Family – never complain, never explain.

If God didn’t want you to have this child then you wouldn’t be pregnant…HE doesn’t make mistakes. Good or bad everything happens for a reason and that baby is a blessing and God’s greatest gift…they are either with you or hypocrites.

I waited until I was 6 months pregnant. I just got a divorce which I was already looked down upon. It was with my Best Friends brother, my family knew him and we tried to make a relationship work for a year, but it never would work. My family disowned me and never invited me to another family function. All because I had 2 kids by 2 different dads and because I was not married I refused to do as my mother ordered. 14 years later I and my son have nothing to do with them.

Hey there is no right word to say to your family, you’ll just know when the time is right to say something about your pregnancy. Your family might be in shock, they might be thrilled, or even upset but thats completely normal and they will understand. Besides who knows this man who the father u never know u 2 might hit if off and it later become something more than friends

This is the problem with “Christians” my mother came from a large very Christian family at 19 she ran away from home never to be forgiven nor did they want to meet her children. Yes yes I know all Christian’s are not like those I’m talking about…those I’m talking about live behind that; I’m a Christian banner, snobbery, deceit, unforgiving, live in a nutshell world. I’ve met one or two wonderful Christians blessings. They just are.

Your family will most likely be shocked at first, regardless of their religious stance, then I’m sure they will get over it. They may not love how it came to be, but I think they will be more helpful and accepting than you’re giving them credit for.

You just say it. We all screw up in some way. And if they throw a fit just remind them they won’t stand in judgment for your mistakes so stop stressing.
You got this. Just don’t take what they say in vain when you tell them. Mine didn’t quit take it like I had hoped and I still here those words like yesterday.
If you’re going to have the baby you’re going to have to tell them eventually. Might as well rip off the bandaid and see what happens. I think this is a situation where you’re going to have to just take it as it comes. I hope your family can see past the religious beliefs and remember you’re their daughter and that baby, their grandchild. Sending you all the good luck and hope that they will be happy for you!

One night stand is not ok with them but a drunken night at the bar is? Asking not judging.
Just tell the truth it is what it is.The father is standing by you at the moment you have not been abandoned, your unborn baby will have two loving parents.So what if they are Christians if they are Christians they will respect you for being truthful an the Christian thing to do is respect the life you are carrying that will soon be another whole human being regardless of how it came to be.Sending love light and best wishes for the future

Daughter told me she was pregnant from a one night stand I would tell her I love her so much and can’t wait to meet my grand baby. I will support my children no matter what.
This is the only response acceptable from any God loving Christian fyi to anyone who tries to use their religion to judge.
Tell them the truth and if they respond with anything less than grace and love then you message me and I will love you through your pregnancy.

First of all if he’s a great guy y not date him and get to know him? That’s what dating is for. Second time to step up and tell the truth. You don’t have to tell them it was a one night stand as that is not their business. Simply you are pregnant and working it out as you and the child’s father feel is best. It is what It is.

Maybe give the guy a chance to prove that he not only can be a good father but a good man and eventually a good husband to you. Also God works in mysterious ways. Give the poor guy a chance he was good enough to sleep with even if it was only one night. And if your stressed about telling your family wait awhile until you tell them.

My daughter went through this almost 6 years ago. At first we were horrified, but it all worked out. They have built a friendship and a family. They purchased their first home 2 years ago and will be married in September of 2023. If you’re meant to be together it will happen. Don’t force it. Your family may expect you to jump into a marriage right away, but that’s not the answer. We’re definitely blessed to have this young man join our family.

I hope you have your own place because that can get really dicey. Just sit them down tell them and expect the worst. Hopefully it will go better. My family already knew and they were kind of chill about it because I was 22 and not a teen. I had always been told O had to wait for them to pick me out a husband and if I got pregnant they would throw me out, etc. They didn’t do any of that. Were they still judgemental in a way yes but not enough for it to count.
Best of luck to you.

Well, tell them that abortion is not an option, and that you already love this baby as a gift from God. You and baby daddy like each other but neither one wants a lifetime commitment to each other, but will co-parent. Christians strive for goodness but are fallible. If everyone that had a one night stand got pregnant, the population would double overnight! I’m glad he is stepping up, but you ought to go to court for child support after the baby comes, just got protection. You will both eventually meet someone else, and that needs to be worked out in advance.
Your family loves you, God loves you, and they are hopefully not so pigheaded as to think that they are perfect.

It’s NONE of their business. I’ve been shunned and essentially estranged for many years for a lot of these same reasons. Your family will respectfully deal with it or they won’t and you’ll have to instill firm boundaries. You’ve done nothing wrong so don’t allow them to treat you or act like you have done anything “sinful”. I wouldn’t even tell them the details. Leave it as a casual relationship. You’re both human. All the best with the baby and both your decision to parent.

First, Congratulations on the baby!
You sound like you have logical thinking skills (mostly). Be matter of fact with your family about it. What’s done is done. The Christian thing to do, would be to love you through it. Our families aren’t perfect, but love is a choice. Ask them to be forgiving, so they can be in your child’s life. Good luck

Be honest. If they are truly a Christian family, they will get over it. It may take a little while but as we all know, only “He” is perfect. And it is not their place to judge anyone. Good luck and hopefully they will get over the shock quickly. And then embrace the new idea of the family growing.
