How to tell your mom u got ur period?

So, you started bleeding from down there and you don’t know how to break the news to your mom. Fear not! We’ve compiled a helpful guide on how to tell your mom that Aunt Flo is in town.

Timing Is Everything

Before you spill the beans, consider sharing this information at the right time. Choose an appropriate moment when she isn’t preoccupied with something else or stressed out about work.

  • Make sure it’s just you and her in the room.
  • If she’s cooking dinner or busy with chores, wait until she has some free time.
  • Don’t bring it up during family gatherings or social events.

Get Comfortable

This might be a tough conversation but discomfort will make things worse. So, take deep breaths and have comfy attire for support!

  • Wear loose-fitting clothes if it eases anxiety.
  • Sit on comfortable cushions if needed
  • Take slow-deep breathes prior to starting this convo

Start With A Joke

Breaking ice via humor lightens any mood so why not give that approach a try?

“Hey Mom, do we happen have tampons in this house? Don’t worry I’m bringing my own flavor.”

Letting off such jokes reduces awkwardness of telling her directly whether its bloodstains ruining your dress /sheets or cramps killing u inside making trips to bathroom dreadful!

There are plenty of ways of using humor while still communicating what happened—just remember not everyone’s sense-of-humor would match yours (Thanks Captain Obvious). Test waters before diving into these type of jokes.

Lead-Up To The Mention Of Menstruation Properly

Since emphasis has been made on easing nervousness through levity – actually getting serious could cause too much unease.Although eventually letting her know about all relevant details should occur.

You can slowly build towards mentioning menstruation by opening up with other topics, like asking her what age she started or how it was for her growing-up. This provides indirect ease of entry until actually mentioning menstruation.

  • “Do you remember when I was 12 and we talked about puberty?”
  • “Mom, did you ever have to miss school because of cramps?”

Once the conversation hits these kinda points ,enough information would be shared to make saying what happened directly easier

It may seem daunting but this is the best way! Don’t beat around the bush once your initial ‘joking’ phase has passed. Being frank and getting it over with makes verything so much easier in long run.

Of course words are subject to change depending on person — tailor them as necessary (no surprise there).

The following might be more than enough:

“Mom, I got my period today.”

Short and sweet sorta eliminates risk of over-explaining (which could lead overall eagerness missed interpretational cues from mother in response)

Provide Context

Mention where u were at time someone noticed/experienced blood-stains/cramps during ongoing activity – good chance such actions gave some discomfort share experiences/jumping-off point also strengthens relationship vibes.

If she’s interested providing additional details/calming nerves having trouble grasping whats
happening can help alot.
