Well, I'm just gonna ramble on a bit ,and just tell you everything .
I'm 17 years old and 7 weeks pregnant. I was on birth control and we were using condoms. I live with my parents. My mom knows and doesn't like it but she's trying to be supportive. My dad is a Presbyterian Minister and would kill me if he found out. My (ex)?boyfriend and the father of the baby is 5 hours away in a youth penitentary. He says he'll be there for me, but how can he do that from jail? He also has another child on the way with his ex-girlfriend. She's 7 months pregnant. He wants to be with me, I love him, but I don't know what to do. I work 6 days a week from 2pm until midnight trying to get some money saved. It leaves me so tired, I can barley move at the end of the night. On top of all this, I'm so lost as to what I'm supposed to do. I get so sick in the mornings, I can't keep anything down and it lasts for hours. Is there anyway to deal with this? I feel so lost and hopeless, I'm just so scared, and so angry and so upset, I just don't know what to do anymore.

How much does your mum follow what your father says? Because it may be good if you talk to her, about telling him, and having her support and to be on your side. That's as long as she's not the type of woman who, when the man says jump, she will. Having her full support will help.
You mention your boyfriend has a pregnant ex. Does he want to be apart of her childs' life as well? Also, how long is he going to be in jail for?
The fact you're working such long and late hours may be a reason you're feeling so ill. If it's possible, you should try changing your hours so you're doing them during the day instead of half the night. For your age you are working very long and late hours. Changing your hours may help, as in later months, you are going to experience disrupted nights. And that is from just being pregnant.
As for the sickness, I was advised to try something with ginger in it. Ginger biscuits was something I used to try. It helped ease the sickness, I had it all day. Though if you're not keeping anything down, it may be an idea to talk to your doctor. You need to keep food down to help feed both yourself and your growing baby.
The emotions are also normal. I'm sure everyone has gone through all the emotions; scared, feeling alone, feeling helpless, angry, upset. It could also be something else you talk to your doctor about. Some people are more emotional than others, some may even actually be depressed. Talking to your doctor will help find out if it is just overactive hormones, or it is in fact depression. Either way it will help to talk to someone. Your mum would be a good idea to talk to as well.
I hope this will help, even if it's just a start.

Lux911 i never did tell my dad he wouldn't care anyways but just come out with it maybe he wont freak or you could lie and say u were raped Even that can backfire. Some will still see it as their fault, or they will go completely the other way & try to find out who it was (even if you say you didn't see them)

kub_89 Lying about rape is not an option for me. Rape is a serious issue and lying about it is juvenile and stupid I agree. The best option really would be to talk to him with your mother alongside of you.
