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?

I Cried

Posted by: Draevyn on Fri Jan 18, 2008

I was only 9 yo when I first started. I was, luckily, at home, but I had only the slightest idea of what was going on. I immediately started to cry and ran outside to find my Mom. My older brother and a friend were with her, talking, and I couldn't get Mom's attention, so I just stated (loudly), "Mom, I think I started my Period!" And everyone got quiet. And then they all stared at me. It was so embarrassing! Of course Mom ran over and hugged me, and cryed. Looking back on it, I would have to say that it wasn't horrible at all. A little scary for that first intant, but not a bad experience.
