Im not sure how to answer this, because I have always answered Amanda's questions, she started asking things about the age of 5. As she grew older the questions grew more advanced to where a few months ago before her 14th birthday we covered everything you listed. I let her ask the questions and told her to tell me when to stop with the explanations.
I explained what happened when I was raped at 16, I explained what happened the first time I had consensual sex (and what that meant) we talked again about her period (not too much this time since she has been having hers since she was 12 and pretty much knows all about it). We talked about oral sex and all the possible ways to get preggie (and that yes the guy doesnt have to actually ejaculate for it to happen, as that is how I got preggie at 19)
Im lucky that she is homeschooled and isnt subject to the day to day misinformation about sex like I was so there werent the "rumors" I had to dispel.
A funny side note to all of this was when she and Dave and I went to "farm days" a few weeks ago....a donkey she was interacting with got excited and she asked me if thats what Dave looked like lol. She knows what a penis looks like....she has seen babies and toddlers, but she'd never seen a full grown man and was convinced that they were all that big lol
My mother never had the talk with me and it was very important to me to go over things with Amanda BEFORE she is faced with any actual sexual situation so that she can make as an informed decision as possible.
She handled it all very well and thanked me, because a few of her friends have tried talking to their moms and their moms keep telling them that it "isnt time" for that yet.
I say anytime they ask.....its "time"
