How do I ask my mom when she got her first period?

Answer 1

I didn't tell my mom right away! I was in tears because I didn't want to tell her. All I did was text her and she wrote back ," I think your sister has pads. Take tylenol for the cramps. ;)" After that it became a regular part of my life :)

Answer 2

I'm a boy so I never had this problem, but I know enough about the world to tell you the following:

Your mother was once as old as you and did not know how to tell her mom about her first period. Same story with your grandmother and her mother.

Some parents think they embarrass their daughter when they start about it. Just remember this for when youhave a daughter, be openminded to her so she will not feel ashamed.

Shame is not necessary, every girl has a first period and almost every girl feels awkward to tell her mom.

The only possibility is to just do it. Maybe when you're alone with your mom. Tell her that you felt awkward to start about it, but you need advice. Your mother will not be angry.

Maybe she will sigh, because your first period is the sign of puberty, and your mom knows: puberty means trouble!

But that is how life is.

Now just tell your mom and get it over with!

Tell her you are becoming a woman.

Don't worry!

Answer 3

Just send her a text on her pone that says," Hey when you go to the store can you buy me: shampoo, conditoner ,tampons/pads, and pamprin." that is what i said to my mom. Something like that just say or message it casually cause if you don't think its a big deal, your mom wont she will probably just say, "aw, my baby girl is becoming a woman." or something like that. It is normal everybody says that your mom went threw it and it happened to her to, well it did. It isn't easy to tell her, that is why i sent here a text so that i didn't have to say it.

Answer 4

You simply say to your mom - 'Mom, can I start using tampons?'

If you're in your pre-teens or teens it's important to acknowledge that even if you're responsible enough to use tampons correctly you're still at higher risk of TSS. If you want to use tampons over safe options like pads or menstrual cups then you need to be able to prove to your mom that you are mature enough to use tampons correctly. She may want to talk about this to you, but the first sentence of 'Mom, can I start using tampons?' is a good first step to this conversation.

Answer 5

"Mom, how old were you when you got your first period?"

Answer 6

If you get your period you should definitely tell your mom! There's nothing to be scared of because she has had one already as well.
