I’M 14 and have got myself pregnant after having sex with my friend’s brother at a party. No one knows about it and I don’t know how to tell my parents.

I know I’ve been stupid so please don’t tell me that. I really don’t want to be pregnant and I certainly don’t want to have a baby.

FIONA SAYS: YOU HAVE TO FACE UP TO THIS NOW You’ve not been stupid, you’ve made a mistake – but it will be stupid if you don’t tell someone soon.

If it is only days since you had sex then speak to your doctor as it may still be possible for you to take emergency contraception.

It’s very important, especially as you say you don’t want to continue with the pregnancy, that you get medical help as soon as possible.

If you are beyond the stage of emergency contraception then you are almost certainly going to have to speak to your parents. Your doctor won’t be able to help with medical procedures without their permission.

Tell your mum and dad as soon as you can because if you want a termination of the pregnancy (an abortion) the sooner it is done, the better.

Get the help you need now.
