However i'm also pregnant 25 and at home, so i do think its fair for them to boot you out when you need them the most. Its also unfair that they are ignoring you ... have they given any reason for any of it, the kicking out and ignoring etc?? I'd say listen to caring guy - he's got some sound advice, wish i could be of more use then suggesting trying to talk to your folks or giving them time to cool down.

Right now, the most important thing here is that you and your unborn baby are healthy and safe. Your parents will come around in their own time. But the most important thing is that you and your boyfriend get ready for this baby and support each other. Your baby will need you to be strong for it. So spend time talking to the doctors and such. Also, if you're looking for housing, then go to this site.
http://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/
and find out where your nearest office is. The Citizen's advice can offer all the information you need about council housing and benefits that you're entitled to. And they do it for free. Since you're pregnant, I would have thought that you would be more of a priority.

Have you done anything else to upset your parents? Do they have certain views as to when you should have children?
At 28, I doubt that your parents are ignoring you just because you are pregnant. You have to find out the reason why they are not talking to you and take it from there. Write them a letter if they won't talk to you
