First Period Experience
Where were you when your first period started? How old were you? Did you talk to your mom, friends? What was your initial reaction? Retrospectively, could it have been different or more positive experience, and, if so, how?

What do you mean my period? What's a period?
I was only 9! My mom & I had def not had "the talk" yet and to top it off, she was out of town celebrating my aunt's birthday the weekend it came. I didn't want to talk to my dad for obvious reasons so I called my sister who lived hundreds of miles away at that time and she calmed me down. We tracked my mom down and she returned home right away. In the mean time, I changed my underwear just about every hour and threw the soiled ones in the garbage when my dad wasn't looking lol. Starting early was common in my family, but not THAT early. It was a traumatizing experience, but I survived!

its a dog eat dog world out there:o)
I had just turned 12 and had a few friends who had already gotten their periods so my mom had previously seen used pads in my garbaage and asked but it was always no, until it was yes. i felt so terrible and had the worst cramps and backaches and thought i was sick. i took a nap on the couch to try to feel better and when i woke up saw it and wasn't quite sure so i told my mom and she took me shopping and explained everything to me. two days later i was at my friends house and i put my used pad in her garbage and her dog ended up taking it out and chewing it up in the dining room!!! then her mom came home and saw it and asked my friend if it was hers (she hadnt had her first one yet) and asked another adult woman in the house and no one else had theirs. my cheeks were so red and then her mom talked to me about it too. she was very understanding though and told me it happened to her and she has to push them to the bottom so i felt better but still!!!

The beginning
I was 16 and in my family that is REALLY LATE both of my younger sisters started before me. My mother was very worried. I was on spring break from high school (Thank GOD!!!) and my dad was cooking eggs. I was in my room and i felt like i wanted to puke the smell of cooking food was making me sick. a few hours later i went to the bathroom and saw the blood. I went and told my mom who was very releived.(she had taken me to see a specialist because she was worried something was wrong) tho i only got it once a year for the next 2 yrs......( this also started my issues with fertility)

my first period
I was 12 when i first started my period. i just came home to use the bathroom from being outside with my friend. I saw blood and i knew what it was. I told my friend and she told me i needed to tell my mom. My mom was sitting in the dining room on the phone and i was laughing. She asked me what was wrong and i told her i would tell her later and she goes no tell me now. So i whispered in her ear "i have my period" she quickly got off the phone and she was freakin out, but in a good way. hahha. Now my mom only used tampons so when i went to the bathroom i had to pile on the panty liners. After the whole incident i went for a bike ride to the library. When i got to the library i went to the bathroom and took off the panty liners. I didnt know that you are supposed to keep them on. I went to use the computer and needless to say a mess. So i had to leave and go home. Thats when i was really embarrased.
