That is a tough one about your mom. As a mom myself I can now see more clearly why my growing up was hard on my mom. I can remember many times when my mom resisted me on things that were very important to me. What seemed to help is if I would sort of "take the reins". It was like she then realized how important that was to me and was able to be more supportive. Can you contact the gynocologist and schedule an appt? Good luck to you. You are a very strong young woman.
