My mother found out about me

[Erin Kay Howell]

That's great news. She pays attention to you

Apparently too well.

She told me she had an idea I was trans... O_o?

Who thinks of all the things in the world your child could be that trans is up there on that list?

*mind blown*

[Rachel]

Your Mom deserves a card and flowers. I am very happy for you.

That was great. The title led me to believe it was going to be a horror story. I wish it would go that well with my father. I'm pretty sure he'd rather that I were a drug dealer or a murderer than to be a girl.

I agree! I was bracing myself for something bad, but its quite the opposite!

My mom guessed it! I was all mopey for a while and one morning we literally had this conversation..

"Is it a gay thing?"
"no.."
"Is it a transgender thing?"
"...kind of..."

Of course, that was followed by denial for a long time but is all good now.

Anyway, thats amazing how your mom reacted! Good for you!

[Clockpunk]

I know you've heard this a thousand times, but that's so good to hear!
So happy for you!!

[Erik Ezrin]

Wow, Erin! I'm so happy for you! I hope my mum would be like that too (I'm afraid not, but anyway)
You are really lucky for having a mum like that!

[Erin Kay Howell]

Thank you all again for your sweet comments however the excitement suddenly died for me.

I just received a phone call saying my endo appointment is canceled after I waited for two months because the doctor will be out of the office. I can try to juggle my work schedule around again and try to see a different endo on the 8th (doubtful), or I can reschedule for the end of August.....

I'm so pissed right now

You would be surprised. Some people really pick up on the fact that your a girl. It's weird but some can figure it out. Oh wait till your mom has the talk with you about sex, boys and personal feminine hygiene... It's very embarrassing...

[Shannon1979]

That is awesome news. so happy for you.

Sorry to hear about the endo appointment tho. but do let it get you down keep with the positive.

Well if she talks to me about sex with my wife it will get weird your right! XD

And Im trying to keep positive. Im going to try to juggle my work schedule around again for the 8th.

They normally have some good advice. My mom gave me tons of sex advice no matter how much I covered my head with my pillow

[Mac]

Wow, what a great reaction ! I wish my mom would react like that, but knowing she won't, I'm still waiting with coming out to her.
Congrats! you must be relieved and happy :-)

[GendrKweer]

And that, my darlings, is how to be a great parent. If I wore hats, I'd tip it in your Mom's honor.

[dreaming.forever]

She cornered me at work and got it out of me...

"Well if thats the worst thing your going to do in life im ok with it. Your my child and ill always love and accept you. Also you have to promise to smile more often since I know whats been making you so sad all these years."

So uneventful

I have been crying on and off in happiness all day long.

Awww! I'm happy for you 

[Erin Kay Howell]

So after a little strife and stress I was able to juggle my work schedule around and get in next monday to see my endo. I hope there isnt going to be another reason it gets put off for another 2 months.

Ive also thought about asking my mother to be there for my first pill. I also wanted her input on possible names, not have her name me but if she would have had a daughter what her name would have been.... im not so sure I like Erin being that its so close to my male name.
