You have to realise this is serious. If there is a possible problem with your heart, you must see a doctor. Ok, your mum will freak, but what happens if the pains get worse, you can't hide it from your mum forever and how will she feel if one day she finds you passed out.
Please, you have to just swallow your pride and tell your mum, so you can arrange a doctor's appointment. It may well not be anything serious, but if you ignore it and things get worse, you will regret not getting checked out early. This is way to important for you to be dismissive about. I really hope you will take my advice. Good luck.

Okay, I know you didn't want me to tell you to go to the doctor, and I'm not. I'm 14 and I'm going to suggest you should go to the doctor. You are only 13 and you have a lot of life to live. Don't you think you should tell some one about it? I know you can get help. You'll feel so much better after telling some one. Your mom may freak out a little, but only because she cares.

Let your Mom freak! You need to get checked by a physician. It could be something serious or just a birth defect (like a murmur or valve problem). It's better to be safe than sorry. My brother was born with Mitral Valve Deficiency. He found out early in life and was able to treat it. He has to take antibiotics anytime he goes to the dentist, gets injured, or gets bloodwork - other than that, he's pretty healthy. GO TO THE DOCTOR!

Well even though you are 13 you need to overcome the fact that your mom is going to freak out. A medical professional is the only person that will be able to help you. Not people on yahoo answers.

sweet heart what u r doing is not correct.
u hav to go to a doc .thts the only soln.
but
how u do it depends,
if u r so afraid to tell ur mom , ask ur dad and request him not to inform ur mom now only.else u can also ask some other elder in ur family or may be even friends' parents but u shd see a doc immediately.
u have already delayed it for 2 years.
see a doc before somethim happens and
GET WELL SOON.

It could be any number of things, all needing a doctor's diagnosis and care. Your Mom is going to freak even worse, if you leave this so late that you cause yourself permanent injury.
Believe me when I say that it is much better to tell your mother now, than if she finds out on her own. And a fear shared is a fear more easily faced.

If your mum suffers ulcers then you may have a gastric upset. Acids in your stomach may rise during the night and it may be as simple as heart burn. Don't be affraid to talk to your mum as this anxiety may be also causing pain. Try some antacids see how that goes but really tell your mum and visit your doctor so as you can get the proper treatment.

Go to a doctor. Tell your mom - even if she does freak out. Your health is important and you and your mom need to take care of it.
Wishing you all the best.

If you really wiegh 78lbs at the age of 13 that might be the problem. I am 12 and I am heavier than you, but I am certainly NOT fat!!!

You have to tell your mom, and ask her to take you to a doctor. Even kids your age can develop serious heart problems. Even if your mom freaks out, at least your condition will be diagnosed. Please find out what is causing your chest pains before it's too late.
