Answer 2

Hey, syd. No, I'm not a gurl - I'm a 41 yo man...but so what. Sometimes these things take an older point of view. Your mother is either avoiding the issue of her daughter growing up or, and this happens so often it's amazing, she's too busy to notice. I could tell you to ask your dad, grandmother, sister, aunt...even a teacher (female, please - don't leave yourself open for any misconduct, okay?), but this is your mother's responsibility, and right. There are moments in your life when your mother, absolutely, must be there. They include your birth (okay, that was a no-brainer), your first words and steps, your first period, your first heartbreak (not too early, please), your graduation(s), your wedding and the birth of your first (second...third?) child. If you are a little timid about starting the conversation, try some subterfuge. Let her catch you in the feminine hygiene aisle 'reading the labels'. In a one-on-one-at-home situation, hold up one her 'necessaries', which you have snuck out of the box under the bathroom sink, and ask her how it works. As a last resort (or first, maybe?) turn to grandma: tell her about the situation and ask her to 'nudge' mom in the right direction - she knows how important this is for you and your mother to share. Books and websites are educational, and all - but they don't give you that personal/bonding experience that a mother/daughter talk will. Mom can tell you all about her first (embarrassing?) moment, tell you how she felt about it and make your feelings about the subject a little more valid and, above all, normal.

Answer 3

just go to your mom and ask her if you and her can go to your or hers room to talk something that is personal for you. ONCE you can get somewhere safe then tell her you aren't sure about how girls get their period and would like her to tell you about it. Then let her know you feel like you might get yours soon...she might ask you why you would think so...you can tell her your reasons...and then you can feel better since you did get up your courage to talk with her. It isn't easy....I know....I went through the same thing...until I had to be bold and just come out and ask her. I am not sure if you are the youngest or what...but that might be the reason why she hasn't talked with you about it...she doesn't want to face letting you "grow up" and becoming a lady...since that is what is all about. Good luck :o)

Answer 4

in case your dad is liable to mood tantrums i'd say tell him in a letter once you'd be lengthy gone for some time. (The longer the more effective.) (a evening with a pal? a visit with someone, someplace?) which will supply him some time to quiet down and do a touch really questioning about it earlier he makes any rash judgements. clarify your case in detail, and each and every thing you advised us too, of route. enable him comprehend the way you experience about it, and that you're scared and want his help, and to delight be there for you. this may be his grandchild no rely what!!! If this does no longer carry him round you may want to favor to be making some judgements on your own. make confident to wish for power and knowledge. For knowledge so that you're going to ever take care of to determine actual from incorrect, and for power, that you may want to ever have power to do what's ideal.

Answer 5

My mom told me years before, so I was never in this situation.

Could you make a doctor's appointment and ask her? You could ask really detailed questions that you would probably be too embarassed to ask your mom, especially as she seems like the type who doesn't really want to talk about it.

Answer 6

You ask her the same way you are asking us, JUST ASK!!! She's not going to run to the kitchen and grab her biggest butcher knife and start slicing you up. Your mom loves you trust..... way more than we do and she will teach you the ropes. Our thing is we are always afraid for some reason that our parents are the enemy and they are not. Also it's nothing to be ashamed of, it's life and human nature and she will probably be glad you asked her and not some strangers................

Answer 7

Simple as this... Go to her and say "hey mom I am not feeling well, my sides are hurting and I feel as if I have a stomache ache and I am craving something sweet... Why is this? Why do you think I am feeling like this? I do not understand! Be calm and goodluck! I am sure she will assume its your period lol.

Answer 8

just tlk to her about it...if your not ttly comfortable with it then go to an aunt or a friends mom ...they'll be able to help too....i got mine a couple yrs ago and i was afraid to tell my mom cus i got it really light for a few days and then the next month it was normal and heavier...but just tell ur mom you think u got it or you think ur gonna get it soon..shell buy you what you need...so good luck!

Answer 9

I get you...Well jjust hjint it to her. Tell her that your stomache hurts and your sides hurt. Then tell her that you're tired. Just give her hints. If she doesn't get the hints, then you'll have to just spill to her. OR another trusted person. Maybe a friend? But if none of those you want to do [which I doubt] then you can IM or e-mail me. Good luck

Answer 10

how old are you? if you are at least 12 then your mom probably is embarrassed to talk to you about it. did you learn about it in school? Well you can send me a message anytime if you have questions about it. I am a mother of 3 girls so I know a lot!

Answer 11

OK! I think you should go about it by saying something like "Mom, my friend got her period, and I was wondering when it will be when I get mine?" Just hint around about it, and she will talk to you about it.
