April Fool's period.

Posted by: stormy78 on Mon Aug 4, 2008

I think I was around 11 when I first started, and we were on our way to New Orleans to visit my sister. When it happened, I had no idea what was going on so I didn't say anything to anyone. Then when we got to my sister's, my mom noticed and talked to me about it. I was too scared and embarrassed to tell anybody what was going on. I'll be honest in saying that nobody had talked to me about it before it happened because I was believed to be too young to have a period at that age. I figure my mom was going to wait until I was a year older. Luckily I was in no pain or anything but it was pretty scary to ride for 10 hours in a car with that happening. The irony was it first happened on April Fool's Day. Later on I just laughed about it. In all honesty I wish I had been more prepared for the event and I think I would have handled it better, but I can't blame anybody for that. It's just a part of growing up.
