How to tell my Mom that I have my period?

I’ve had my period for almost 2 years and I haven’t told my mom yet. I don’t know why, everybody else can tell their mom but I just can’t bring myself too. I want to tell her but I’m afraid to. I don’t know what I’m afraid of but I just am. Can anybody tell me a way to tell my mom? Please, I really need help fast

Answer #1

hey I had the same problem maybee you cud sit down and av a get every thing out in the open chat or you cud leave your fresh sanetry towels somewhere where your mum will see them and then she will find them hope you find these tips useful x

Answer #2

I don’t have a husband. And what newborn are you talking about. I was raped and have twin girls but I don’t need a breast pump. I don’t mean to sound rude or anything but I never said anything like that and I don’t know what you are talking about.

Answer #3

okey im 13 and my mom knows that I have my period. what I did was I just took her to the store with me and she saw me buy a pack of tampons.

Answer #4

well I had it easy I didnt have to say it face to face I was over my friend house when I had it I told her on the phone. but I think the best thing to do is telll an adult you trust. Maber an older sibling or a older because you can tell them to tell your mom that ill be easy but if you cant do that write your mom a note and slip it under her door one day

Answer #5

Well when I first started mine, I just said mom, I started.. and she knew what I meant. She let me stay home from school that day and told me how to take care of it. just figure a way that is most comfortable for you, my friend told her through text messaging, so maybe that could be an option.

Answer #6

If you have twin girls, it’s obvious to your mother that you have your period. It’s something that needs to take place to have a child.

Answer #7

I used to have the same problem as you… I was scared when I told my momma about it… She was okay about it…so just tell her…

Answer #8

You poor baby you have twin girls at the age of 13 and you haven’t told your mom you have a period. Just call her and tell her to pick you up some pads

Answer #12

I had to tell my mom because I was at my dad’s when it started(ten times worse then telling your mom is telling your dad, he didn’t have anything and it was 2:00AM we go some at the bathroom in tacobell haha.

Answer #13

Thanks Everybody. sxylady and jess563029, you’re right. I was never told that. I guess that my mom is just waiting for me to tell her. Thanks.

Answer #15

I really don’t think you need to. you could ask her if she could pick up some pads/tampax for you next time she goes to the store. She has actually probably noticed the stuff in the trash and that hers disappear sometimes already.try asking your husband to pick you up a breast pump for your newborn. its time to get some guts.

Answer #16

anyway, just make sure that you put one of your used tampons or pads in the trash where you know that she wll see it, if you can’t tell her face to face. or if you mom has a grocory list put tampons on it , she’ll figure it out. you could just go up to her one day and say that you need a pad, you don’t need to mention that you’ve had them for 2 years. whatever you do you should tell her, “she is your mom and diservers to know.” my mom made me write that. grrr. but I kind of agree. anyway the e.z.est way is to just blurt it out one day just out of the blue, no “here it’s coming, watch outs” just say it and close your eyes if you have to.

Answer #17

I think that maybe you should go the the guidance counselor or the school nurse (a WOMEN) and tell her to tell your mom you dont have to mention to her that youve had it 4 2 years just that you have or rite your mom a note or tell someone to tell your mom I dont no what your scared of I mean your mom has it and she knows that your going to have it one day so why r you scared? any way I hope that I helped :)

Answer #18

K, I have NO idea where sxylady and jess563029 got the whole twin thing but thats just stupid…anyways I was in a movie with my dad when it happened and the thing is, is that my parents are divorced and I never talk to my step mom it was like 10 at night and my mom goes to bed early…so I had to tell my dad…but you no what that has nothing to do with this…the best way you could tell your mom your on your period is just to confront her about it…I have a hard time talking to my parents about things because they yell at me…but what im getting at is sometimes you have to concur your fear…so just talk to your mom about it…once you start it’ll all be better…just do it…and dont worry…it’ll all be fine! FUNMAIL ME!!! PEACE

Answer #19

When I got mine, I had a friend over and we were about to go swimming. I had woke up that morning with some brownish red stuff in my underwear but I ignored it. When I went to the bathroom, I noticed it was mostly blood, and there was blood in my bathing suit. At the time, my mom was cleaning the pool, and I ran outside and grabbed my mom’s arm. I’m like, “come inside, right now, I gotta talk to you.” When I locked us in the bathroom, I’m like, I’M BLEEDING I HAVE MY PERIOD then started crying really hard…shes like..whoa…then all of a sudden we started laughing..she showed me how to used the pad and all…it all worked out. we used the excuse of a stomach pain. good luck!
