my mother found out that I had sex on feb and it took her some time for her to adjust that fact her only daughter is not virgin anymore. So my boyfriend and I (almost three year together) have sex regularly. I really want to get Birth Control (IUD specifically). I don’t want to be pregnant and I’m not ready to be a mother since I’m seventeen and ready to go to college in August.

I took the gut to ask her to make an appointment for me so I can get a BC. She give me that look and told me to leave her alone. I don’t get it, why does she act that way? She already know that I’m not Virgin and I want to be protected.

Then just last night she was bugging me why I wanted to get them. I told her my reason and her respond is

And I told her NO. Then she said oh well it’s strange because you been sleeping all the time and I’m like

In my head I’m like when do I ever sleep!? Because I’m class and student body government president and stressing over all the other thing I have to do fo graduation and college stuff. The weekend is basically my only time to sleep so excuse me for wanting to sleep in all day. Also I just had my period so very unlikely to be pregnant.

The point is I feel frustrating talking to her about getting BC.I want to get one and I know I can legally because I live in NYC. Can anyone give reason why she acting like this and give me a few pointers how I can get an IUD? If I can’t get her to come w me to make an appointment then I’ll go by myself. I’m not taking the risk having unplanned pregnancy.
