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?

My first period.

Posted by: hotmomma28 on Thu Jul 12, 2007
When I got my period for the first time I was 11 years old and it was the summer before I was to start Jr. High. Not that starting a new school wasn't hard enough getting my period was the icing on the cake. I remembered watching those videos that they had shown us in school just the year prior and so that helped alot. What happened was I woke up and was about to go eat my morning cereal and watch cartoons when I realized that my underwear felt abit damp. When I got to the bathroom I had a brown discharge. Luckily (or unluckily I should say) for me I had an older sister who had already experienced all of this so I went to her and she informed me that I had goten my period. I was devastated to say the least, but what topped it off was that she called everyone in our family and ALL of HER friends to let them know that Aunt Flo was now a part of my monthly routine! When My mom got home she said nothing to me about it but, "ok". (and she wonders why I was pregnant at 19) My sister did help alot even though she had embarassed me. I am thankful to have had an older sister.
