How Can I Do This?
Posted: 12-23-05 15:18pm

I'm in a happy, comfortable loving relaxtionship with my b/f, we feel really comfortable around eachother and have decided on his next b-day (roughly a year), we will have intercourse...

Now i'm "underage", but of course, this is my desicion and I wan't to know how I could get the pill.

My mother has always said that she would get it for me if I was really determined, because she'd rather I have protected sex than go off and do it anyway without protection..

I'm not sure if I wan't to tell her my decision, and maybe a condom would be fine alone?

Why don't you give planned parenthood a call? I'm not aware of rules about age, but they could surely help you out and you can remain anonymous if you like.
Good luck and be careful!

Same situation happened to me. I started dating a guy and we decided to wait a little over a year to have sex. My mom had always told me that she'd rather put me on the pill than me get pregnant at a young age. When the time came a little over a year later we started having sex with condoms because I was too afraid to tell my mom. After having a few pregnancy scares I decided to tell her. She then put me on the pill. I was nervous, but believe me it was worth it. That opened up communication between me and my mom and I felt safer having sex with my boyfriend.
That's wonderful that ya'll are waiting at least a little while. It'll make you feel better that he's not just with you for the sex. I say talk to your mom, it'll make her feel better too.
Oh yeah, and the boyfriend that I started dating and slept with at only 14 is my husband now. I'm 22 and we just got married in october. We're trying for our first child. It's exciting.
Talk to your mom, wait for sex, and it'll be all worth it.

Okay, thanks :)
we really do love eachother, and I know people are like "ermm, no only adults can be in love" and stuff, but it's my feelings and only I can determine them.. Theres a local clinic place called connect, that you can go there about anything sexual, etc, and it's all confidental, you can even use a fake name, etc.. A woman came into our school talking about it.

I will talk to my mum about it next year nearer the time, i've never been uncomfortable talking about sexual issues with her, so it's not that i'm worried...

Thanks for replying.

Planned parenthood will see you without parental consent, and they charge you very little (usually) if you are a teen :)

I definitely recommend talking to your mom and getting on bc. Hormonal birth control also offers other benefits, if you're like me, and have horrible periods, it will more than likely help with that as well. There are several versions out now, mainly the pill and the ring (i'm sure that the patch will be taken off the market soon). I use the ring and we always use condoms during sex, since we're not married yet. Best of luck to you, I hope that you have a pleasant experience.
