She flipped out and now she won’t let me see my boyfriend, great. And im not even sexually active yet I just thought it would be the smart thing, but I guess not.

I’ve been sexually active for about a year now, and always used condoms. With my most recent boyfriend, however, I’ve been slacking. I don’t think parents realize how difficult it is to stop and put one on when there is such intense chemistry, or when he doesn’t like to wear one. People can have fits about forcing him to, but something tells me that they’ve never been in that situation before. Anyway, I had a pregnancy scare and now we are using condoms again, but naturally, we want to stop. So, I decided it would be good for me to investigate birth control. I don’t like the idea of putting fake hormones in my body, and I want to have kids when I get married so I don’t want anything permanent. I found the ParaGuard IUD, and it’s just what I’m looking for. I don’t have to remember to take a pill or worry about a patch or ring, and I can be spontaneous.

So, the discussion with my mom. I explained that I had slept with a past boyfriend that she loved (I did not mention my other past sexual encounters). And then I said I have no recent plans, but I wanted to be careful in the future. Naturally, she was shocked, and disappointed, but understood where I was coming from. I then explained that I was not going to be using this as an excuse to sleep around and I would continue using condoms, but I just wanted to be prepared. I think she liked how mature and responsible I came off, but it was still the most awkward and uncomfortable experience of my life since my mother is extremely conservative.

My advice is to not say that you’ve slept with more than one person, to tell her that you don’t have any plans to, but just want to be prepared.

My sister went on the pill for a while and it caused her nothing but problems!! She put on a lot of weight, she was getting migrains and headaches every single day!! The pill has sooo many side affects that in my opinion it’s not worth getting on it.
