Why are you scared to ask your mom?

Do you have an older sister, cousin, or maybe an aunt or your grandmother that you are closer to?

I know the first conversations about bras and periods and what not are always awkward and uncomfortable. But your mother has been through all of the things you're going through or are about to go through. And it's a huge help to have her or someone else experienced with you. The first few times my mom took me bra shopping it was overwhelming with all of the choices and styles and trying to figure out my size. You'll want your mom there.

Are you asking because you just started your period or so that you can be prepared for when it does come?

I always make sure I have a tampon in my purse and school bag. Although when I first started getting my period I preferred pads. That what I recommend starting with. Always make sure you have at least one pad in your purse and school bag and a few in the bathroom at home. I also like to make sure I have midol or advil too in case I get cramps or backaches, which are pretty common. Warm baths, heating pads, and walking also help though.

Are you 11 or 12? In your post asking about a bra you were 11. And now you're 12?

Please do not post multiple threads with the same or similar questions. You already asked about getting your period in your other post and I already answered it there. I'm going to ask that this thread be merged or deleted. If you have more info to add, go back and use the "answer" box towards the bottom of the page to add more info or follow up questions.

Could go to ask your close friends, they may give your idea.
Or shop with mom, when close to a bra shop, ask your mom for it. She will buy you one.

Ask your mom for 50dollars, and walk into Victoria Secret's and the ladies there will take it from there or you can go to the Pink store

This is the thing about life. If you want something - then ask for it or get it yourself.

In this case - you can't get it yourself so you have to ask for it.

Why would you be scared to ask your own mother that. For you to state this - it suggests that the relationship with your mother isn't a close one. In that case work on the relationship with you mother or ask for advice from other close women in your life to help you select/buy or talk to your mum about bra shopping.


1. what are you scared about?

2. what do you fear will happen when you ask your mother?

Hey, my mom told me I needed one. She doesn't want you to feel uncomfortable. I too was scared to ask my mom. I was going into 7th Grade and I had to take gym. And my mom didn't want me wearing no bra and my breasts open for everyone to see. Just wait in until she asks you. Or, you can buy it yourself. Go to the mall with your own money and buy 2 or 3. OR... If you REALLY need and WANT one NOW... ASK HER!! She's UR MOM! Get over it and say, "Dang. I need a bra mom! Can we get a few at Target tommorow or whenever you have time?" You can also leave her a note in her purse or text her. You'll find a way(;
