When my sister started her period my mom broke out her phone and recorded the moment and put it on her facebook.

Tell your sister and let your mom figure it out on her own. Or sit down and talk to her and tell her not to embarrass u. Communication is important or let her just figure it out 4 herself. Text her maybe so she can't record anything. But starting isn't anything 2 be embarrassed about. I used to be so s hy about it but now idc if someone yelled it. Every1 goes through it no biggie

well it's just your mom being interested about you, when you tell her hide all electronics, recording devices, etc and make sure she's calm...or maybe tell her when she's still half-asleep.

when i started mine i was at a friends house and i had to call my mom and tell her. You could try writing her a letter. And in the letter you can ask her not to do anything embarrassing about it. Tell her you know what it means and what could happen and you dont need the talk. Just ask her to kinda keep ot secret. And if you dont feel like doing that you could just leave ur blody clothes on the floor or leave pads/tampons (wateva u usin) on ur dresser.
