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 know the excact moment. It was on a roller coster ride at Elitch Gardens (it's old location). I was 11 years old, 6th grade-ish. It is wonderful to know that my mom had prepared me. I knew what to do and went back to having a good time with friends without anyone even having to find out about it.
I hope that I can offer that same support if I ever have any daughters.
The tramatizing part was that most of my friends didn't get theirs for another few years. I was a pro by it by then. And to think when I was 22 (6 years ago), I had already had my period half of my life. I can maybe, hopefully, look forward to menapause coming soon too.
