My mom knows that im no longer a virgin. And when i went to the doctors, my doctor kept throughing in birth control. But when i mentioned it to my mom, she kinda laughed it off and said i should'nt be having sex. Basically she took it for a joke but i was serious. So how can i get her to be serious about my question and her response

You could always make the dude(s) wear a condom. Tell them to "wrap it or slap it". Seriously, condoms will protect you from a LOT more than pregnancy.

Well, the fact that you should not be having sex is overshadowed by the fact that you are indeed having sex. So, I feel that you should just sit your mother down and lay things out on the table. She will respect you for being responsible and even though she may not want to accept the fact that you are engaging in sexual activities, she will most certainly appreciate that you are taking charge of your own well-being. Remember that she was your age once and she will understand. If all else fails and she will not take you seriously, then you still need to get yourself some birth control. You can see your local health department for that. They usually will provide you with condoms also. Please don't forget to use condoms along with your birth control!
BTW, Kudos for doing the right thing and staying safe!

One one hand, your mom is probably right. It might be better to wait until you are older to have sex. I had sex at a young age and I wish I had waited. It would have created less problems for me that I didn't understand at the time.
On the other hand, if you are going to have sex it is best to be safe - both with the pill AND a condom. It's more than just about pregnancy. STDs are a serious concern as well.
I was never able to talk to my mom about sex. I got my birthcontrol prescription from my doctor without telling her. I'm jealous that you feel you can talk to your mom about it. I wish I could have.
I suggest just telling your mom that you are serious and you are making an appointment to talk to your doctor. Then ask the doctor for a prescription. Be prepared to pay for it yourself if she isn't willing to let insurance cover it. Sex is a responsibility that you need to be prepared for both financially and emotionally.

As a mother of girls, I would be HAPPY that you would come to me for birth control advise. I don't condone sex at a young age, but I would be ok with you acting so responsibly. Your mother knows that you are sexually active already, so she shouldn't want you to become a mother at such a young age. You need to sit her down to talk to her and make her hear you. If that doesn' t work then then you can take matters into your own Hands and go to planned parenthood. Remember, the pill doesn't protect you from STD's and HIV so please be careful and use condoms also.

Try going to a planned parenthood that will help teens get birth control.
Or, tell your doctor you have frequent periods that are less than the average days and they may put you on birth control pills to help regulate you.
And if your also taking them for that, it will also protect you from getting pregnant if you do/are having sex. Just be safe - unprotected sex can give you a STD!

Hiya hun, go to Your Mom and tell her you may be pregnant... watch her response then answer ... " Im really sorry I had to do that - but Im NOT pregnant, but need some birth control so I dont GET pregnant"
Or tell her shes far too young to be a grandma!
Im sure she`ll realise that your deadly serious. And good on you girl for being so mature about this too.
Hope this kinda helps.

Tell her you want to be responsible and even though she thinks you should not be having sex that you would like to have the birth control for the possibility of it happening again.

Tell her that you where very serious about protecting yourself and you need her help. Also remind her that she was in your shoes at one time, wouldn't she had liked to be ale to have talked to her mom about being more careful...

Tell her she's gonna be a grandmother.
When the shock wears off, qualify it by saying...
...unless we go on birth control.
But, if you are under 18, you really shouldn't be having sex.
Wait. You will regret all of this when you mature emotionally

birth control is good. make her see that you are serious. sit her down and have a serious talk with her. i understand her point of view about telling you that you shouldn't have sex all together, i'm a mom too. but i believe if my daughter would sit me down and have a serious talk with me, it would open my eyes. let her know that you're serious. good luck..
