Female help only please?!!!!!!!!!!!!?

Question

Im 14. I got my period for the first time yesterday. I wasnt worried or anything, and i knew just what to do. My mom had already bought me all the stuff i need for it, so i used that. I still havnt told her i got it though. I just cant gain the courage to tell her. And every time i get close to doing it, i chicken out. Its just too awkward. Well now i am going on my second day, and i have been wearing tampons practically the whole time. (playtex sport) My friends said those were the best, so i used the ones my mom got for me 'just in case'. And everytime i change my tampon, i find my self sneaking it out to the green trash bin for the garbage man so my mom wont find the wrappers. But you see, i am starting to run out of tampons, and i still havnt told my mom. What happens when i DO run out? i Just cant tell her!! HELP!!

Answer 1

youve got to tell her sooner or later. but if its really that awkward cant you buy some? or know where she keeps    hers? good luck

Answer 2

well if you really can't tell her, you can ask your friends or something if you can have some.  but you really should tell her.  i'm 13, and i got mine less than a year ago and i was just really casual with it.  i was just like 'mom, i got my period'  and she really didn't make a big deal out of it.  she was proud of me that i was a 'woman'.  you really do have to tell her though.  she can help you and answer all your questions about periods and stuff.  good luck and i hope i helped :]

Answer 4

Answer 5

Honey, you need to tell your mom.  She had the forethought to prepare you.  Now be responsible and let her in on your next step to womanhood.  Smile, life ain't all bad.

Answer 6

Just tell her.

You didn't do anything wrong, you won't get beaten for it or anything crazy like that, it's something that naturally occurs in women, and if she bought stuff for you, just in case, then she won't be mad or anything that it started.

I'm kind of curious why you're scared to tell her, but I won't pry.

This reminds me of Carrie.

Answer 7

You just have to psyche yourself up and then tell her. Think how much better you'll feel when you do. It's something every woman goes through and therefore you shouldn't feel uncomfortable; your mum will be prepared for you starting, so you shouldn't be afraid to admit to her. It's nothing to feel embarrassed about. If your mum buys tampons for you just in case, it means she cares and she'll be happy if you confide in her. You really do  need to tell her, as hard as it may feel at the moment. Good luck :) x

Answer 8

im 14 now and i got mine when i was 13.  what i did was left some blood in my underwear so that when she was doing the wash she would see it.  then she has to come to you.  but after a while its no big deal talking to your mom about it.  i was so scared at first and embarassed.  but now i just think its something natural that happens to all girls at sometime or another.  you could also leave some of the wrappers in the garbage so she does see it and come to you.  good luck:)

Answer 9

its no big deal. i got it when i was 11 and i had 2 tell my mom because i didnt have anything. she will definately understand. she went through it 2.......she went through everyhing that ur about 2.... so just tell her in a calm way when ur byurself.....mom i got my period however many days ago. and she act normally because she know what its like... and so do i :)

Answer 10

Aww.. honey don't worry.Your mom is a girl, she knows you are and that it's gonna happen eventually.  She was nice enough to get you everything you'd need in advance (and let you pick the brand!).  And eventually she's gonna notice that you've used up the tampons and the trash is full.  There's no reason to worry so much :)  Just take a deep breath and ask her for more tampons.  Then she'll have to ask why? did you get your period? and you can just say yes :)

Congratulations!  

Answer 11

You should tell her.

She knows, she's a woman.

She will understand.

And when you do tell her,

she will buy you some more.

Just... Blurt it out!

or,

'mom, i think i started my period'

nice and simple.

(its not like she is gonna yell at you)

Answer 12

Why can't you tell your mom that you started. She's a woman and knows that it is all a part of growing up. there is no shame in getting your period at all. It just means your growing up. Quit sneaking the wrappers out to a different trash can and sit your mom down and tell her that you started and are getting low on tampons. You'll get more from her. It'll all be O.K.

Answer 13

Tell your mom. I know all mom's are different but pretty much most moms really want to help there little girls. My mom didn't even tell me it just happened one day and when I told her she didn't freak like i thought she understood and helped me so much. She went through the same stuff as you are right now. It's what is supposed to happen she will understand and hey, what are moms for anyway? :-)
