Deff. Tell her. Even if she over reacts she needs to know. But I highly doubt she will because moms know you are eventually going to get it and it is a part of life. She would probably get mad if you tell her the part about you having had it for 6 months. Just don't tell her that part. The reason she would get mad is because she wouldn't think she could trust you if you had kept it from her all this time. Go on and tell her, she won't get the slightest bit mad. :)
hope this helped...

Peeps answered Wednesday June 2 2010, 10:23 pm: It's possible that she gets angry because you don't tell her these things right away.
They are very important things. I would be upset and disappointed if I had a daughter and she was too afraid to tell me basic woman things like this.
Open up and just tell your mother. It might be surprising to hear that her daughter had grown into a young woman but you need to tell her. It's doubtful she is going to kill you or kick you out for having your period. You cannot control your periods or when you hit puberty.
Just tell her and overreacting too. It will help to just relax and talk to her face-to-face about this problem so she can help you handle it.
If she kicks you out, threatens you, or does something bad then it can always be fixed. There are people out there that would help you get through it. It's doubtful she'll react so negatively though. She was probably just upset before since you didn't come to her with the important information right away. Maybe it made her feel like a bad mother? Who knows.
sweetascandy7364 answered Wednesday June 2 2010, 7:58 pm: There is no way you should get in trouble for having your period. It's healthy and supposed to happen. If anything she will be upset that you kept it from her. But you have to tell her at some point so you might as well get it over with now. You also could just lie and say you just got it for the first time. [ sweetascandy7364's advice column | Ask sweetascandy7364 A Question ]
Miss_Lyric answered Wednesday June 2 2010, 12:05 am: Periods are natural. You did nothing wrong! Every girl has a period! You can't get in trouble trust me! And you have to tell your mother as soon as possible so she can get you the proper things you need. You had no control over this so remember you can't get in trouble! Just go up to her and say "Mom I started my period". And sometimes mothers get very sentimental because this is a sign their little girl is growing up. I remember when I first started my period my mom took me out to eat and we just talked. So tell your mom! WELCOME TO WOMANHOOD! If you need more advice just message me! I hope my advice helped!

Jumpercutie2009 answered Tuesday June 1 2010, 11:01 pm: Periods are natural so she shouldn't freak out because it's nothing you can help. Unless you mean she will freak out because you didn't tell her. If you think she'll honestly freak because you didn't tell her, wait until you're on your next period and pretend it's your first. lol [ Jumpercutie2009's advice column | Ask Jumpercutie2009 A Question ]
