March 2015

Ironic. Like really ironic

So I’m 12. I got my period on the 5 of March 2015. I knew it would be coming soon, I had several of the signs and my mom got hers at 12, but it still came without much warning. The night before I had been on this exact tumblr reading the stories. So anyway it was like 12 pm (im homeschooled btw) and I was going to the bathroom. When I wiped Niagra Falls was all over the TP! (I was wearing black underwear so I couldn’t see the blood in them. It was a darker red, but still not brown. So I shakil went downstairs to tell my older sister(my mom was out signing my little sisters up for soccer) and she called my mom.
When my mom came home I had just stopped crying. My sister had given me one of her pads, and I went along the rest of the day. I was worrie because I had band that day and wondered if my bad would show through my jeans. It didn't😅. It lasted for six days, each day’s flow weight varying. On the last day I had terrible cramps. 😣
It was exciting, because I had wanted it for so long. But at the same time I felt like I didn’t want it and I wasn’t ready. I got it at the most common age, but I was expecting it at like 13-14 because my siste got hers a few months before she turned 14. Anyway, my 2nd would come in the next 1-2 weeks if I was regular yet, but I will have to see! I might not get it for another couple months even! 😂

crazy first period😣😣

When I was 12 I got my first period. I was playing outside with all my friends until I had to use the bathroom. so Im using the bathroom I looked down getting Ready to whip myself and I see a little blood in my under wear didn’t think nothing of it so I whipped myself and all blood was on the tissue so I told my mom and she told me it was time to start using pads…..P.s. I was crying and embarrassed.

Paint Splatters that Mattered

I stepped into the bathroom stall at school, going about my routine. Then I saw my undies. Their was bright red splatters that looked a lot like paint all over them. My mind drifted back to the discomfort I had had and the sharp pain in my side a few days ago. Then it hit me. I had just experienced my first period! I finished my business and then walked away like nothing had happened. I didn’t put a pad in or anything.

That night I contemplated whether had my period or if I had an infection. I decided that if the blood ruined three pairs of underwear, I would tell my mom. So I waited and watched. Sure enough, the next day and the day after, there was a lot of red splatters on my underpants.

Awhile back, my mom had given me a bag so that I could be prepared for when my period and the onslaught on puberty came. It had pads and acne wash and a scrubby. Everything I needed.

Twice I almost put a pad in. Twice I chickened out. So, finally, I decided to tell my mom.I was soo embarrassed, but she was super happy for me. She gave me a tutorial on how to use the supplies, which we already had, and asked if I had any questions. 

So.. that’s my story.

Oh, and one last thing. Periods for girls can look totally different. Some girls’ first is just thick discharge, others is bright red paint platters like mine. Don’t worry about what you first perforations like. If you miss a couple within the first year or so that is totally normal. Also, I’d advise you to start out with pads, and graduate to tampons under a trusted adults guidance. And, not all girls have cramps and stuff. I don’t really. Just twinges in my belly. GOOD LUCK!!!!

I'm 12, Feb 18th..... the day of doom

Hey guys, it’s Amy n i m gonna tell u abt my period. Well on 18th Feb, i came home frm school n went to the bathroom where i found brownish red goo on my pants. I was shocked n told my mom. She predicted that i was gonna have my period in some hours. I already had supplies but i did not use them. The next day, i came home frm scool and as i was taking of my white plazo, i saw dry brown liquid on it. I was pretty sure this was periods. I told my mom n she congratulated me on it. As i m a woman now. I put on Always thin odorless pads. Well, it is funny that i did not feel anything just a lil itching. It’s not that bad! Anyways u have to be a mom one day ! ;) 

Happy Periods! :)

the period...

i was 11

me and my bestie were having a nice day together at my house, watching movies and etc, My stomach started having SHARP pains but i ignored hoping it to go away. my friend suggested we go to the park, i agreed, not wanting to dissapoint her. we got to the park and she was climbing here, swinging there but i was just standing there, i didnt know why but i didnt want to move. around 15 minutes later i lied that i was cold so we wen inside. We went to the kitchen and by this time i felt like crying it hurt so bad. me and my friends decided to make lip balm and stuff. At some point i wanted to curl into a ball so i excused myself to go to the bathroom. I went in and just sat down on the toilet lid in agony. i went to the loo and looked down, there it was, a BIG RED BLOB OF BLOOD. i screamed, literally SCREAMED and my friend rushed to the door, she knocked on it loudly and asked if i was ok, i asked her not to come in and i told her about it, she ran away and 5 seconds later slipped a green pouch under the door…

Am I getting my period?

So earlier today I had terrible cramps and it hurt so much that I couldn’t move and now I just went pee and there was a pale-ish spot of dried blood on my undies. It’s really pale, it’s not like my older sister’s regular flow or anything. So I want to know: Am I getting my period or is it just something else?

vacation=ruined

So I got my first period on vacation, during the summer.  Sounds better than at school, right?  Wrong.  We were staying in the Ritz in the Caribbean, one of the best places to go swimming.  Once I figured that I had gotten my period, I rushed to my mom, who only had the super-huge tampons and no pads.  The tampon didn’t fit, however and from the sixth floor all the way to the beach and back, it was only half in me.  When I finally got back, and into the bathroom, the tampon fell out.  My mom was in the town, buying pads, so I sat on the toilet for roughly half an hour, waiting.  When she finally came back, I was so happy.  The second day, I had a small tampon, and we were walking in the town.  After fiveish hours, I needed to go pee, so I want to the bathroom.  I had bleed through my tampon and swim suit (which was pink, thank god it didn’t look too bad).  We rushed back to our hotel and for the rest of the week I didn’t sit on anything white, especially when I was in a wet bathing suit.

I woke up in the morning really exited because I was going to my friends house, so I woke up and went into my mums room for a while and when I woke up again I kinda was just walking around the house when I sneezed, I thought it was like discharge so went to the bathroom to wipe it because ew, anyway, on my underwear there was a brown spot and when I wiped it was brown, I don’t really know if was my period or not, please help !!

Mar 16, 2015

Ok well my first period was at my house and my mom wasn’t there only my dad. I had to use the bathroom and when I saw my underwear there was some blood. So when I wiped there was blood. So when I was done using the restroom ( yes I flushed the toliet and washed my hands ) I got a pad from my room. My mom prepared me like when I was 8 I think.. Also I was 9 when I got my period and I still am 9. The date was 8/3/14 :)

tw: thoughts of cancer? i guess?

omg so when I got my first period, I thought i had some sort of cancer! I think that girls generally get a dark kind of uterus lining discharge, and when I got that, I was legitimately SO terrified… I was too embarrassed to tell my mum (I thought it was a result of masturbation) and so I just left it… and a day or two later, I started bleeding! For a second I thought it was rectal bleeding and I became very concerned, but then it hit me: I was a woman!!! Or womyn, as it may be.

My peculiar period

Well, I got my bra fitted (I am 12), and found out I was a 32C. I was just like k. The next day, we were going to the library for ages for revision for my brothers gcse and on the way, I had really bad cramps. I started shouting “MUM U GAVE ME ROTTEN FOOD. I’M SO ILL!” (I don’t usually talk like that, that was the hormones. When I when to the toilet, I saw this big scrape of brown/red stuff and I literally thought I had pooped my pants without knowing. I told my mum and she said it was my period. Worst though, we had to tell my brother and he suddenly turned all red. So now he has not stopped teasing me :(

My first Period

I was fucking nine years old in the middle of math class and I went to the bathroom and checked my underwear and found red dots in my underwear and I put a actual bandaid on my uterus. DON"T EVER DO THAT

Opps...

So I got my period about two week ago. My babysitter was driving me to dance class and I had to change in the car… I accidentally left my underwear in the car. My sisters and I got home from dance class and my mom asked us which one or us left it in her car. I said it was probably me, mad the she yelled at me for “pooping in my pants”. I didn’t know what she ment, so I ran up to my room, and sure enough, there were dark spots and a little blood in my tights. (That’s what explains the cramps I had all of dance class!) my period lasted for a whole week. (Is that a little long?) later that night I told my mom and she was just like “are you sure? I got mine at 14.”

My first period

My first period happened about a week ago when I was on a family trip in the mountains. I was just in my room when I suddenly had to go pee really badly, so I went to the bathroom. When I looked in my panti liner, (I have them for discharge) there was the tiniest red spot. I didn’t think it was my period, I thought it was just spotting. Then, I wiped and there was blood. I looked in the toilet and there was blood there, too. So I texted my mom and we bought some pads and tampons. (Tampons because I’m a swimmer…but my first period ended before the practices or the meets) The whole thing lasted for about 5 days. It’s really nothing to be afraid of. Btw I’m 11.

Brothers birthday

Hi, I’m natalie. My brother had 5 really cute boys over for his birthday. During the movie I had to go pee. When I got up to leave, the boys started laughing, except for one. He said,“ it’s not funny guys stuff happens. Quite being mean” and he smiled at me. I was confused. So when I pulled my pants down to use the bathroom there was blood everywhere. It soaked through my pants. Then it hit me. The boys were laughing cause they saw my period blood. I quickly changed. I didn’t go back into the movie cause I was to embarrassed. Then that one boy came into my room and told me that it would be okay. He grabbed my hand and we went back into the movie. We have been dating three years now. But that was totally embarrassing. If it hadn’t have been for him I would have been humiliated for life. Thanks
PS: I’m now 14

The worst timing!

So I was going to six flags very soon and the day I was I woke up with what I thought was poop! I was so embarrassed and so I took a shower and when I was drying myself off I noticed their was blood on the towel. So I thought to myself oh my god I’m dying. The night before I ate so much ice cream and it never really settles well in my stomache so I told my mom and she was like oh it must be because of that ice cream! So I totally thought that was the case! So then it was time to go and In a matter of time we were at the amusement park I was wearing my bathing suit underneath my clothes and brought no change of close so we all went to the bathroom before we went riding on some roller coasters so I was going to the bathroom and saw the same brown substance that I did in the morning. I was so freaked out and didn’t know what to do cause I had no change of clothes! So the whole day I was leaking and the brown blood was totally getting all over my pants and I didn’t even know it was blood I started to get suspicious when it didn’t smell. My mom wasn’t with me so I texted her and she said to go in the water and that you might be having your period so I went on a water ride and my bathing suit was cleaned off (sorry kind of gross) and we left the water rides and went on the bizaro I literally thought I peed my pants haha! But turns out the next day my mom told me it was definely my period! So if that isn’t the most saddest period story I don’t know what is! At least I wasn’t at school so I’m very great ful for that!

Okay so I’m 13, and I just got my period. I was going to bed, so i went to the bathroom, and when i looked down i saw blood. My first thought was oh gawd i’m dying! Then i smiled and was like, world, i hate you!!! I grabbed one of my Mom’s pads and figured out how to put it on. She was asleep, an I didn’t feel like waking her up, so I just told her the next morning, and it was awl good!

In The Bathroom

I had my first period in the bathroom (THANK GOD) I was just gonna pee when, I noticed some blood in my pee (No blood in underwear). I wiped it with tissue and found that it was my period. I told my mom immediately and she taught me how to use a pad. I am just thankful for it to happen in the toilet not anywhere embarissing!

Awkward

I was so embarrassed when I got my period. Even though I got it at home my friends at school never experienced this before, I was the first. It started April seventh 2014 at twelve. Since it was my first time I checked the pad every time I went to the bathroom. My friend found me going extensively and asked me if I was ok. I ended up telling her. She was a bit younger then me which made me uncomfortable telling her. She understood and just said it’s ok, you can tell me anything.

Friends share more than secrets

Last summer, when I was 12, my best friend was having a birthday sleepover party. Since it was in the middle of June, we were going to go swimming the next day. I was so excited, but when I got there, I felt really nauseous and I was acting meaner than I usually am. I already knew about periods and everything so I kind of expected it. So, I went to the bathroom and saw ALOT of discharge. I started to freak out but I couldn’t  tell my friends because I was embarrassed. I put some tissue paper on my underwear and went to play some board games with them. Then, right before bed I went to the bathroom and it was REALLY heavy. Luckily, there was a lot of pads in my friend’s bathroom so I took, like, three. I went to sleep and told them I didn’t feel good the next day so I couldn’t go swimming. It went fine, but I’m pretty sure their moms knew what was up.

Mar 7, 2015
omg

Frikkin Friday

I was 12 years old and it was the ending of 6th grade. Almost all my best friends had already got their you-know-whats and told me it was “Death by vagina” (yes kinda quoting Dork Diaries) so i wasn’t all that excited for getting mine. I knew what they were, and the symptoms, and i had all of them…..so i was kinda paranoid about going to the bathroom, wore dark underwear, absolutely refused the “TALK” ,objected against taking pads to school to be prepared, and even avoided the subject of “PERIODS” (yea, imma say it…go ahead and laugh :)) I thought i could maybe avoid it for a while and deal with it later….like how i do with most of my situations….

But oh no..IT HAD TO COME. (I dont care if this is hella long i just want to get my stupid story out there.) I am usually a very outgoing person who has never known embarrasment and am very shameless so you would’ve thought..hey its fine right? NUH UH. 

So we were having a party cuz class was almost over…ya know…the last day of school, and we had several bags of chips, and all types of crap, stuffing our faces, and playing on our phones, and had a picture of the old bitches we called teachers and throwing darts at them. Then all of a sudden, my best friend Medha was like, 

“Dude go to the bathroom" 

And i was like why? She insisted and i went to the bathroom. Of course i was having abdomen pains all morning so i went all suspicious. Could it be?

I ran inside, went into the first stall, and checked my underwear. I took some toilet paper and wiped and i saw brown stuff….so i thought i pooped myself. I just cleaned my underwear and myself really good and stuffed paper near my butt so it could catch any more of the ‘poop’

i checked my leg and guess what? I WAS DRIPPING SHIT. AND IT LOOKED LIKE LIQUID POOP.

I cleaned it up with tap water and soap, and dried it with a paper towel. I washed my hands and left and we partied some more. 

Then i got into my bus and was having a language war with Gautham and Aditya and David, with three 5th grader girls, and we were almost winning until i felt really lightheaded and fell down onto the floor. It wasn’t fainting because i could still make sense of what was goin on. David helped me onto my seat (he has a crush on me.) AWWKWWARD! The driver gave me cold water and candy and i realised what was going on. My legs were dripping blood and my underwear was drenched in it. (I could feel it…DUH) AND EVERYONE SAW. I asked if i could go to the bathroom, because the bus doesnt leave for another 20 min. 

The driver agreed and i raced all the way back. I dashed into the bathroom and saw my entire underwear soaked. i cleaned it up pretty well and it slowly dawned on me. "OH NO. I.GOT.MY.PERIOD.” The reason i fainted was because i was losing so much blood that it made niagra falls seem weak. i kept cleaning it and it kept coming out. then i wrapped up a bunch of toilet paper and paper towels really tight and stuck it 'there’. It held pretty fine so i walked steadily back to my bus only to discover what? yea my bus left. So did my bag. So did my snickers bar and bag of doritos. I DID NOT sit in a corner and cry. I just went up to the admin and was like 'hey my bus left so im stuck here’ i was raging for no reason. The bus could always come back and give me a ride home.

The lady saw my legs, and looked shocked and immediatly contacted my parents, the driver, and had everyone informed that i had an 'accident’. So now, not only did i get my period, but i lost the language contest to david, tee hee, have a HEAVY FLOW and my bus left without me. And so did my food. Now my moms gonna yell at me cuz i didnt board the bus on time. And why??? Cuz mother nature sucker punched me in my uterus. 

Great. Just great. I waited for an hour, and the bus came back, i got my backpaack, stuffed my face and had my mom give me that IMMA-SEE-WHAT-HAPPENED-AND-WHY-THE-HELL-DID-U-NOT-BOARD-UR-BUS look. Hella scary….. She was like 'Janvi, why didnt you board your bus??“

And i told her. Her eyes got wide and she said 'well now i can be extra protective of you and no ones gonna touch my baby” She got me to walmart and let me pick out some underwear and a good brand of pads. she even bought me chocolate, ice cream a few movies and a paperback novel . We went home and my makeshift pad was completely soaked. 

I changed into a pad, and relaxed. It could hold. After some time, i took a full bath, and the blood didnt flow. The water stopped and it was victoria falls dyed red. 

So yea my first period was suckish and many people saw. But now i dont care because there have been more embarrassing stories before me, and after me so now i look back and laugh. 

P.S sorry this was long. :((
