Ta girls

It's funny coz I went to a funeral yesterday and I was talking to a fellow cricket WAG who's girls are 17 and the same age as Em. We havent seen each other since last season so we were catching up and obv we have teen girls in common. She was saying how she was exactly the same with her two. She said that her eldest had boyfriends but she just kind of knew when she got with this one it was 'just different'. He's at Uni so he's got his own place etc so she told her DD that there would be no sleeping over until she was on the pill. At first her DD said she didnt need to as she wasnt ready but then she did come to her and say she wanted her to come with her to the Dr. So they went and she got the pill and she armed her with lots of condoms etc. And my friend said that nothing else was said for a while but she started staying over and one day her DD said 'Mum it happened and it all went well and that's all I'm saying!' Her mum was pleased that she told her and I was pleased to hear that it can work out that way.

how much detail did she think her mom wanted her to go into

My daughters only six so i don't really have advice, but i'm 22 and i still watch hannah montana lol. Me and my daughter love it lol, i was quite immature too, i never had a boyfriend until i was 17

mmm here goes dont tell my daughter i told u she will kill me lol
shes 15 n has an implant i have been open with her about sex n from the very few people i have told i got quite a bit of stick saying i was encouraging her to have sex because i agreed to contraception
possibly yes but thats a 2 sided argument i know my daughter i have given as much info as possible before hand so hopefully she didnt see it as a green light to have sex she is also aware of the importance of condoms the no glove no love but she can also be immature but has had a boyfriend
but each teenager is different u know ur daughter my advice is if u feel its time get her contraception i know my daughter is "too young" but im not niave enough to think tats enough to prevent her having sex is
i was adivsed against the depo apparentlythey dont reccommend it for u if ur bones are still growing thats what i was told anyway

i would just book an appointment and tell her to discuss contraception with her doctor, she might open up more, my mum and me had a close relationship and we quite open with eachother, but for some reason i would have denied i was having sex til i was blue in the face..:-S..so my mum only mentioned contraception a couple times then let it go..i suppose as a young teenager i was quite immature,,but naive also..i fell pregnant with my daughter at 18, if it werent for being as shy and scared of having sex i hate to admit but it probably would of happened alot earlier.
So just set up an appointment and get some info leaflets or something.

my mom never talked to me about sex or babies or birth control. everything i learned was from friends and books, tv, school, etc. i took myself to get on the pill when i was 18. i had asked my mom about it and she refused to take me because she said that was just giving me a license to go out and screw. idk. i wish she'd talked to me about it and taken me to get the pill or at least approved of it and not made me feel like i was a bad person for wanting to sleep with my then serious boyfriend and be safe about it. idk.

mommy43 - I think you have a sensible approach

Jazmine - that's basically what we did (I updated further back in the thread )

MrsAdair -

My mum didn't know I was having sex untill I said "mum.. I'm pregnant"

hehe yeah, when i told my mom, she goes - "you told me you were waiting until marriage!" (we'd been living together for like 6 months already, together for a year)

I can only comment off how ive done it. I sorted it all out myself at age of 15 & half. Personally i think id have a talk with my daughter around that age see how she feels.
Im not 1 for liking injection to much. Maybe implant.
