I brought that subject up to my mom and even told her how I felt I was ready to have sex when I was 16.

Scariest topic ever to bring up with your mother, but it is well worth it. My mom was very informational and objective about my feelings and desires and took me to get birth control within the month. Though she was not happy when I told her I had lost my virginity, the fact that I had opened up the topic of sex with my mom was the best thing for me.

Hey, you don't have to talk to your mom about it, all you need to do is go to the nearest Plan Parenthood, or even a regular doctor, (WITHOUT AN ADULT) and he/she/they will give them to you no charge, trust me my sisters all had to go and my mom lectured me all about it.(:

aunt honesty agony auntI know that this is a scary topic to bring up with your mum, but believe me you are being very sensible about this. I am sure that your mother will appreciate that you are thinking about these things and she will realise that you are mature. Yes she might not want to know that her daughter is sexually active but at least she knows you are wanting to be safe and careful.

Simply just ask her can you talk to her in private. Then when you get the chance just say to her that you would like to go on birth control and ask her how she would feel about that.
