My boyfriend and I have been dating a little over 15 months and if you have read some of my questions you know that we have had sex. I want to ask my mom about getting myself some birth control but I am worried about how she will react. Any suggestions on how to ask her?

you can jsut go to planned parenthood and they will put you on it for free without your parents concent.

I never went to my mom on this subject, simply because I didnt have that mother-daughter relationship. I did however do some research on it, and went and got birth control on my own. Its available at your local health dept without a parents signature or knowing. Also I am now a mother of a 13 yr old daughter, and I made a promise to myself that she would be able to come to me about any and everything. I have always been open with her and answered all questions. So she is pretty well educated on the birds and the bees..

You don't need to ask your mom...you can go to your Planned Parenthood office and get birth control. You may have to be a certain age, so you may want to look into that (phone first)

Whatever way your Mom might react, she is The best person for you to talk to.
She might not like it. She might disagree. She might be upset.
But the pay off is that your relationship with your Mom might go to the next level and you will be talking women to women.
Talk with your Mom, she will be there with you for a long time. Sorry to say, the boyfriend is temporary.....
Would have love to know your age, it wouldnt have change my answer.
Take care....

If you think you have reasonable parents, I would tell her you are thinking about birthcontrol, and that You feel you want to get just in case you decide to have sex. If your mom is close to you tell her you have had sex, and you are interested in getting birthcontrol because you are responsibel, if she freaks out, and acts like an idot and doesn't want to help you , then go to planed parenthood, but give the benifit of the doubt, and telll her whats on your mind.

Does she know you guys are having sex? If not and if you feel comfortable enough to share something like that with her, I would flat out say that you have been sexually active and would like to look into birth control. I think she might appreciate the honesty and are glad you want to be cautious. If you dont' want to share something like that with her, tell her you have a heavy period and bad cramps during your period and you would like to look into birth control to help you with these problems.

If you have a good relationship with your mom, just try talking to her. You don't even neccesarily have to tell her that you've already had sex . but explain to her that you are starting to have feelings and you are trying to wait but that you would like to be on the pill (or whatever it is you want) just incase. better to be safe than sorry. I know I would rather have my daughters coming to me than to think they couldn't talk to me or sneeking. Sometimes parents are a little more understanding than they are given credit for.
If all else fails ...get yourself to a clinic....or at least use a condom

You're having sex without birth control now, and you're worried about how your Mommy will react when she finds out. Excuse me.
HA ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Quit having sex, little girl. I advise you to go to church, instead. And I'm an atheist. If you're worried about what Mommy will think, it's too soon to be spreading legs (you dummy).
You've already dived out of the airplane and you think that maybe you need a ladder to climb back up there and get your parachute.

Put on your best dress rehersal and go and tell her that you are pregnant. your 6 weeks along and you want to keep the baby. Also tell her that you and your b/f just broke up. when she wakes up from fainting tell her your just kidding but would like to get on birth control to avoid a situation like this.

You can go to Planned Parenthood, but remember, Birth Control has a high failure rate, especially for young girls. This is because your body is still changing and developing. Regardless of what you use, he should use a condom, and make sure you get ones that fit.
Also, remind the young men that sexual activity in teenage boys increases their chances of getting testicle cancer, the #1 form of cancer in males age 15-35. It is not a STD, it is one of the millions of cancer viruses we all carry, but are immune to. Males don't reach full maturity until age 30, so sexual activity in the teens has a major affect on his overall development, reducing his immunity to the virus. This does not guarantee that he will get it, any more than smoking guarantees lung cancer, it just increases his chances.
If he does get it, they will cut off the affected testicle(s), followed by radiation treatment, but only if caught early. Caught late, it moves quickly to the brain and lungs. He will slowly goes insane as it eats away at the brain, while he slowly drowns, as fluids fill the lungs. It can be a miserable death.
