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?

How could I have been so Naive?

Posted by: lilsis on Sun Jan 8, 2012

I was 12 when I started my period. I was at school too. Before it started that first time, I had known that there would be blood. So to me, being as naive about this kind of stuff as I was, I thought that bleeding meant that it would hurt (like it does when you get a cut and it bleeds, not when you get cramps). Anyways, when it did actually start, one of my friends that had already started her period, gave me a pad to put in my underwear. Fortunately, there wasn't much blood in my underwear when she gave the pad to me. Then, when I got home, my mom talked to me about what to do for my period. Thankfully, she's not that type of mom that goes and tells everyone that I started my period. She just knew that how I felt.
