I will never forget when I got my first period. I was soooo upset! I remember saying "Oh S**T!" hahaha. I was so bummed out. At first, I really thought I'd never be able to swim again lol, because I forgot it only lasts a week. I was thinking it was a daily thing. Imagine how bad that would be! OMG!

Ahahah me too, my very first period when I was 14 although I was a little late since all my classmates had their first period a very long time ago. Mom actually gave me a panty liner during my first period oh crap she never really think about me then in the morning I was so pissed washing my stuffs. Then mom told me "oh it overflowed I thought you'll only have a few on your first night" I can't believe her. Gave her own daughter a very humiliating thing. >.<

Yeah, I was pretty bummed and disgusted as well. I was lucky to have it started at 14, not 12 like most other girls. Mom had prepared me for it, but still, it took some time to accept and get used to.

I was 13 when I started, and I was actually okay about it.

I did have one friend who one morning was crying her eyes out at the bus stop on the way to school. When I asked her what was wrong she told me she started her periods and everyone was going to be able to tell by just looking at her!!!

I remember thinking the same thing lol. I thought people would look at me and see that something had changed lol. I also remember being really freaked out that I was technically able to have kids. Scary!!

I was 13 years old when it happened. I knew it would come, and yet there really was nothing that I could do to really prepare myself for it. I cried a lot, but not anymore. Now it just angers me mostly because I don't want any children.
