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?

My Awkward Moments
I was 9 years old ,I was at a family reunion. I had no idea what a period was. My mom had not told me yet. My oldest sister was the one who helped me, she was Ten years my senior. That time was not a good time for me. When I finally got home I learned about it from a BOOK my mom was not a good resource. The book was a hardback, it was about fertility.When I went back to school[this happened during the summer] none of the girls around me seemed to have theirs. I remember feeling alone. It was not good.So it could have been a better experience.I was very young, if my mother had known it would have happened that young she would have told me sooner. I guess it all goes with growing up and feeling awkward.In retrospect I have always been open with my daughter. She will not be caught by surprise. She is almost 11.
