Menarche Ceremony
Did you have a menarche (first period) ceremony? What was it like? Who was there? What gifts did you get? If you have a daughter, will you (or did you) give her a menarche ceremony?

Passing on the tradition

Posted by: amysmom on Thu Aug 21, 2008

My grandmother, who was for all intents my "mom", was with me when I started my period. She made me feel so grown up! We went shopping at Hinshaws, a fancy shop, and she bought me this beautiful grown up satin night gown. Nothing trashy, just very classy and beautiful. Then we went to a fancy restaraunt and she told me how much she loved me as a little girl and how much more she will love me as a young woman.
It was a very special day, and I am definitely going to do the same for my daughter, who should be starting very soon. She is almost 13.
