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?

Nearly 14

I was 13, a few months shy of my 14th birthday. I was visiting my older (by 10+ years) married cousins, helping them on their farm. I wwoke up one morning with blood on my underwear. Since my mom was a nurse, I knew exactly what it was, so I asked my cousin if she had anything, and she smiled and said, "Sure! You were caught off guard, huh?" I said, "Something like that." It never occurred to me to mention that it was my first one. I didn't think it was that big of a deal. She found out later when my parents and aunt and uncle all met at restaurant prior to me going back home. Mom, my cousin, and aunt were very impressed that I knew "just what to do." Like I said, I kenw it was going to happen eventually, so it wasn't a big deal.
