First Period Experience

I was 12 when i first started my period. i just came home to use the bathroom from being outside with my friend. I saw blood and i knew what it was. I told my friend and she told me i needed to tell my mom. My mom was sitting in the dining room on the phone and i was laughing. She asked me what was wrong and i told her i would tell her later and she goes no tell me now. So i whispered in her ear "i have my period" she quickly got off the phone and she was freakin out, but in a good way. hahha. Now my mom only used tampons so when i went to the bathroom i had to pile on the panty liners. After the whole incident i went for a bike ride to the library. When i got to the library i went to the bathroom and took off the panty liners. I didnt know that you are supposed to keep them on. I went to use the computer and needless to say a mess. So i had to leave and go home. Thats when i was really embarrased.

i was 11 going up into 1st year-
& i was at tesco with my grandad luckly i didn't realise till i got home and as my twin sister started when she was 10 i asked her if i started and she said yes but being a sister she felt she had to run downstairs shouting it to the whole house i was so embarressed i was just about to go to my dads house and my mum told my dad and he was like what am i meant to do with her?
i have to admit that bit was quite funny
but i was terrified i even started crying i have no idea why

I was 12 years old when I first got my period. I was spending the night at a friends house and my friend didn't know about periods. luckily i had some pads in my bag because I had to wait until I got home the next day. Little did I know that my mom was out of town for a couple of days. So I was stuck telling my dad that I had gotten my period for the first time.... EMBARASING!!!

When i first started my period i was 9 yrs old. We had to take my sister to the dentist, I went to use the ladies room and looked down. I said well i know what that is at least. Went out on told my mother i started my period, you would of thought she started hers. Lol never forget her face!

i was 9 or 10, don't remember the exact age. i told my mom and my aunts knew about it who were may be 4-5 yrs older than me. they giggled and were happy but i on the other hand, had no clue what was going on and thought i was dying because it all started out with a fever and i got very sick and then got my period. a very traumatic experience :-/

I was 11 and at home on a Saturday afternoon with my Dad and my mum was at her friends house. I went to the loo and saw the blood. I called for my dad and he was so panicked! He made me sit on a towel on the floor in the bathroom until my mum came home 40 minutes later! I was so scared. We laugh about it even now but at the time I thought I was dying and my dad had left me to it in the bathroom! I was praying to god to not let me die! :D:D:D
