My first time

So basically I would say I’m pretty lucky because I got my period just a few days ago and it was during summer, and I was 13. I was kind of expecting my period for a few months now, and alot of my friends already got it and have been suffering from it. So basically I woke up and my underwear was feeling quite wet and I thought it was just discharge so I ignored the feeling. I was playing on my phone so I decided to use the washroom and check because it was feeling extremely wet. And yep there it was. The weird thing is, i only got cramps twice before my period and so far I’ve had no cramps at all:) i guess I’m just lucky. I used my moms pad and still didn’t tell her about it. Idk I’m just scared to tell her and I’m pretty sure ill tell her the next time I get it.

My First Period

Hi,
I’m 13 years old. I just got my first period yester had been wearing liners for a week, because of discharge but that morning I was like, nah, it won’t come why waste a panty liner?
It was 10:30 in the morning. I was at my grandmas in the countryside. I only had two pads and another 24 hours.
I had cramps all morning but for once was conviced that it was my stomach, not my uterus. I was obsessed with getting my period for over 4 years.
So I had done really piles of research and these scam quizzes “When will I get my first period?” Which that same morning said in one year, and I was conviced I was ready.
I went up to pee, and saw a big, brown spot on my underwear. I was in denial. I was happy, I couldn’t lead myself to believe it. But I got up, took a pad from my bag, went, texted my mom, who was, by the way, very happy, and told my grandma who went to a friend to a so for pads.

My first Period

Ok so I had just got off the bus after a long day at school and I walked inside and talked to my dad and little brother about my day. Then I went to the toilet and write after I had done my business, I saw this big pile o bloody gloop come out of my vagina. At first I thought it was poo, but Ji wiped my bum and it was thick dark blood. It didn’t hurt at all. I guess I was really lucky. I told my sister first and then my mum. I was ashamed and a bit embarrassed to tell my mum but hey, she will give you the best advice and make you feel comfortable. After that I told my friends and they got so excited.

Best of luck when your time comes

Periods Suck.

So I got my first period yesterday. I was sleeping, you know, its like summer and its 9ish or 10ish AM. I was planning on sleeping till like 11 or something when i woke up. Why? I felt like my panties were soaked. And i mean SOAKED. So then i was like oh crap. crap. crap. crap crap. First i thought i peed in my sleep, and then i thought i pooped in them (lol). But when i felt the matress around me, it was dry. And then somehow, I thought my sister did it (she’s 8 and sleeps with me sometimes). But then i was like naaaahhh. So i put my hand under the blanket and felt my crotch area from the outside. Slightly Wet. I got up a little, and looked at my panties (thank god my sister was still asleep). I thought i really did poo in them because i was wearing a white zebra striped undies and my blanket was a dark shade so it made it look like poop. And then, when i adjusted my head a little, i saw blood.Then i was like shit. I went to the bathroom and realized i did get my period. I went to my parents rooom and thankfully, my dad was downstairs in the kitchen. My mom was talking on the phone to someone and had just hung up and was about to call someone else but i was like wait. And then, I whispered, so softly, “i think i got my period”. After that she bombarded me with questions (how do you know, really, omg) and she was really excited. By then my sister had woken up and she thought i was supposed to get it when i was 16. So my mom gave me a pad and yeah. This is my second day. The first day wasn’t that bad, I didnt have any cramps at all, but today I’m kind slightly dying on the inside. Oh, and it sucks cause i have a Very heavy flow. Every time i pee and i wipe, SO much blood comes, its scary. Today my parents are both are at work, and my sister wanted to be my “Chop Chop” which apparently means i can tell her to do something and she’ll do it. So yeah. Im 12, almost 13 btw. Periods Suck.

Aug 29, 2015

okay, so I woke up about 30 minutes ago,  about 6:20 am. I went to the bathroom and when I wiped, I saw blood. I couldn’t believe it, but I knew it was coming because I’m almost 15, and my mom and sister both got theirs before they were 14. I had really bad cramps the other day, and yesterday there was discharge. I also recently had a growth spurt I’m so glad I’m staying with my mom for the summer. (I go back to my dad’s tomorrow) I have pads at my dads house, but none here bease my mom used tampons, and I’m a ‘late bloomer’ as my doctors say, so I’m a bit late for everything. I’m literally the LAST one out of my friends to get it.

Aug 28, 2015

Okay so I was in school and all of a sudden I felt really sick so I went to the bathroom to pee and when I looked at my underwear they were covers in blood so we’re my legs when I went back to class I told my friend and asked her for a pad but she said she didn’t have any so we both went up to my teacher and asked ( she came with me so nobody would know what happened) she said wait a minute and then came down to my desk and gave me two pads so I went into the bathroom and changed into it it was really embarrassing but my teacher understood

Trouble in the tropics

So I’m 13, and I wasn’t expecting to get my period yet as my whole family were very late bloomers. I was on holiday in Hawaii, and we (my parents and I, I’m an only child) rented a car so that we could drive around the island. We picked up breakfast at a McDonalds, and I went to the bathroom. I didn’t notice anything unusual, until I turned around and the toilet bowl was red! I just about jumped a mile in the air and I stood there staring for over a minute! Just as I was about to put loo paper in my undies, it ran out! I finished in the bathroom and headed out to where my parents were waiting. I was so embarrassed, and I didn’t want to tell my dad. As we were walking out I whispered to my mum that I needed to talk to her, and I told her I was bleeding. She thought I had constipation, but I told her my suspicion, and she agreed with me. We stopped at a drugstore in the next town and i stocked up, it was so embarrassing buying them though! We were in the car for eight hours, and I had bad cramps the whole time. It was one of the most uncomfortable days of my life!

Aug 28, 2015
So i think I got mine today, but my mom says my vaginia is "teasing me." So I already told you guys my story, but so I got it this morning for like 5 seconds, I could feel it, and than I checked it was red, and larger than a quarter. Anyways, the day before that I of course had brown discharge, heavy, I'm 13 and Kinda was happy so I could feel grown like the others. Anyways It only happened 5 seconds, today, when its suppose to happen like 24/7. Is it right that it's teasing me?

Isk how 2 submit A decade of blood I'm 22 now and got my first period on Christmas day age 12. Being a holiday none of the regular grocery or drugs stores were open and my dad brought home huge mattress like pads from the gas station
Aug 28, 2015
I was at a pool party and I was swimming. I didn't notice anything until I went home and got changed. I had a brow blob on my bathing suit! I had no idea what it was, but I suspected my period. I put on normal panties (not toilet paper) and waited about 10 minutes. Sure enough, there was blood. I didn't know what to tell my mom, so I just texted her. I used the term 'thingy' but she knew what it was. She said 'you already know everything from school' and gave me pantiliners (she uses tampons).

July 2015

I thought a period was called a period because it would make a tiny red dot your underwear. But then my period actually came. It was more of a shapeless red blob.

Waiting A While

About a month before I got my first period I had dark brown discharge for about a week. There was no blood so I knew it wasn’t my period. A month later, I got the brown discharge again. I wiped and there was brown discharge with a hint of blood. I wiped again and I saw bright red blood. There was nothing on my underwear only when I wiped. BTW this was at my house. My sister who already got her period was in the next room so I screamed at her to come to the bathroom and she saw. She was a little excited and since she already got her period we had pads. I put one of her pads on. My sister told my mom and my mom didn’t seem to care or my dad. I was 12 years old and it was onMay 22nd.

Idek

So I’m 12. And pretty much what happens is is I was watching hp the chamber of secrets, ya know being the huge fan I am.. And after it’s finished at like 11:10 I walk to the bathroom so I can go before I go I bed. And mind you, this was the day I was taking quizzes to see when I would get my period quite the surprise to me that when I look down there’s a couple drops of blood sitting at the crotch. I freaked out though because when I wiped only a slight little pinkness came off and then there was nothing. So now I’m sitting here the next day and I slept through it with a pad I stole from my mom at her apartment and there is nothing on it except a little yellowish/brown discharge..it was probably just spotting and I’ll get the real deal soon but…idk.

Morning blood

     Okay so I just started it today on June 2nd 2015.I’m 13 years old and I knew it was coming soon, but didn’t know when. I woke up in the morning changed and put on some pantie liners for discharge and stuff like that. I than go to put some make up on, and I sit on the floor in a weird position. Than I felt it. I wanted to finish my makeup though, even I knew what was going on, after that I go to the bathroom and check, yep! But it did soak through my leggings, and I had to wear the pants I wore yesterday. I still don’t know a lot of things, that I would know, but oh well, I than call my mom and she tells me if its larger than a quarter than yes. And it was, then I call my best friend and she jumped around and stuff. Once I got to school, I told another best friend and she jumped too.

Not that bad

So i just got my first period and im 11 in 6th grade. so i kinda wasnt expecting it because my grandma, mom, aunt, and 2 cousins all got it at 12. i started reasearching periods around the time of december (thats how i found this great tumblr) and i was so prepaired for it, i knew everything about them and what to do when you get them in public and stuff. I read in almost all of these entry’s that their first one looks like poop. but i wasnt expecting this to look like poop sooo much. ok sorry im boring you with the details so im just gonna tell the story.

Ok so on monday i started to feel sick (my dad had been sick since last wensday so i prob caught it from him) on Tuesday i said home. and i stayed home for the rest of the week. so now its friday and i feel so much better but for some reason my stomatch was hurting. i just thought it was part of the cold that i had so i thought nothing of it. i was doing my homework and i relized that i had to use the bathroom. every time that i use the bathroom i would always check for my period but it was never there just discharge. so i get up to flush and get i mini heart attach. i saw dried brown stuff all over my undies. my first thought was “i just got my period, ” but then i thought “but thats not red its so brown,” i remembered people saying on this tumblr that they thought they pooped themselves but i didnt think it would altually look like poop. so im just like “ eww i pooped myself” for some reason when i was sick, i was scared to poop so i thought it was just that. so i finish up in the bathroom, run upstairs and change my undies. i then think that it must be my period cuz i think i would know if i pooped myslef. i did alot of reasearch on it and in fact some of our first periods look like poop skid marks ( thats exactly what it looked like) so i go back into the bathroom and wipe down there and there is “brown blood” on the toilet paper, and that happened every time that i wiped myself today. so im like ok i guess i started my period. i expected it to be like really bad, a huge red blood splat rite in the middle of my undies and it would be dripping all over the place but no, it just looks like poop. i havent told my mom yet cuz i want to make sure that its my period, im gonna wait till its red. tonite im going to wear one of the pads that my mom got me just incase, for bed tonite. so that was my story its not so bad.

P.S sorry that was long and it wasnt even that interesting. Bye goodluck

So aunt flo came at the very worst time. So, i was wearing all white for my softball uniform. We had a tournament that day and my.day started at 5 am and ended at 9pm. All morning i was having cramps and i felt sick. I didnt tell any one because i really wanted to play. At my rhird game ( we had six) i felt a little wet. At first i thought it was sweat but then i saw people looking at me and looking around my stomach. At first i didnt know what they were looking at. But then my team mates started acting strange around me. After the game my mom told me what was happening. I was really embarrassed. She ran to sports authority and bought me tampons and new.white pants. It was the worst. But no one talks about it any more so.its ok.

I was scared, and honestly started crying… I pulled off my shorts and panties and my panties were drenched in blood, and it leaked all over my shorts… I should’ve been expecting this but, I really wasn’t, I am the only girl in my family and my parents are divorced and I live with my dad and he had never bought me any thing, no tampons, panty liners, or pads… So, I grabbed some baby wipes and wiped everything of and to be honest, I don’t really know where my vagina is… Anyway I searched it up and found this and thought that I should at least tell someone right now cause I don’t want to wake up my dad. Um it is very heavy and all of a sudden came, I didn’t notice anything different in previous days and I don’t have much pubic hair so I didn’t think I would get it for a while, but this is really the first sign of puberty beside my boobs and nipples hurting a little… But please help me!!!

SUPER EMBARRASSING FIRST PERIOD

I got home from soccer and at around 10:00 Pm I went into the bathroom and saw some brownish sticky stuff but I just though it was discharge. The next morning I woke up and there was a little more but not really but decided to change my underwear but I didn’t even think it was my period so I didn’t put a pad on. I then went to school and I was in art class ( 3rd period so it was not even lunch time yet) when I got up to grab some paint brushes. I was wearing these neon green athletic shorts when a girl came behind me and told be I had blood all over my shorts. I completey FREAKED out even though I was expecting it to come soon. I didn’t have anything with me at that time only at home so since I had a longer shirt I pulled it down. I felt really awkward the rest of the day but at around 7th period I went into the bathroom and there was blood everywhere and had completey leaked through my panties and shorts. I wiped andore blood just covered the toilet paper. Since I only had 2 more periods until I could go home I decided not to tell any of my friends since I was just to embarrassed to literally do anything. I got home changed and had supplies with me so it wasn’t all that bad. I told my mom but was still embarrassed to go to school because ow thought more people might have known I leaked thorough my shorts. I was not prepared and really wish I was so bring extra supplies just incase! But don’t worry, you’ll get through it

Awkward Time....

So it was Monday morning and i woke up feeling a little sick.

I saw like browny yellow discharge with a tiny bit of blood, i wiped it away threw my underwear in the wash basket and thought nothing of it for the rest of the day.

I felt fine at school and came home with the same brown stuff so again i cleaned it and threw it in the wash.

Around 10.30 i was on my phone at night and my mum came in and told me off for being on it, after i went to the bathroom and looked down and saw a line of blood, I wiped and the toilet paper was covered with blood.

I ran to my parents room and showed my mother, she told me all about it showed me all the stuff and how to put on a pad.

Its really your choice but i used a tampon at first.

Its funny because me and my friend where talking about it the day before (sunday) and i told her how i don’t have it yet haha, little did i know i would get it the next day.

Btw I’m 12, and i didn’t think i would get it yet because I’m quite small for my age :)

First period

Well I was coming back from school (I was 12) . I went to use the restroom and saw a brownish stain on my underwear(I was home alone), I already knew about periods and stuff . So I wasn’t freaking out .All I did was text my best friend on what to do, she said to get pads. Luckaly I had a near by store next to my house and an extra $5. After that I had to tell my parents when they come back (I live with my dad ) so it was awkward .

But he knew it was normal and told my to tell him if I need anything. so yeah that’s my story

April 2015

i hate it. period.

one day, i decided to go take a shower. as i pulled down my undies, i saw a patch of brown. of course, because of the brown, i thought i just, um, shat in my pants. i ignored it, and hoped the stain wouldn’t be there the next day.

the next several days, it appeared, lessening each. time. 

one of the final days, brown didn’t show up - red. but it wasn’t much, it was barely there. but i was sure it was red. VERY sure.

i was freaking out, and the next day, i consulted one of my closest friends, whose mom was a nurse, and had her period for about 6 months now. , she told me that it might be spotting, and that it’s sorta the, say, calm before the storm.

by this time, i knew i had to tell my mom. i told her, promptly holding up a stained liner and announcing to her - “uh, what’s this?” (even though i knew fully well what THAT was.)

she told me all about it, blah blah blah.

a few weeks later, red, who me and my friend joke about it being someone named “flo”, came. 

from then on, i fucking hated my period

I just got my first period… well I hope have!

I’d had discharge quite heavy for about 5 days and then it stopped and now I have a bit of blood instead. Scary but I’m actually relieved!

I think the more you talk to your family (parents/guardians/mum/dad) about it the easier it gets to just say ‘Oh I’m on my period’, so just talk. It’s the best thing to do!

The Morning Mother Nature Hit Me

So this morning,I just came back from my holidays and as I came back at 1am today,and was really tired,I skipped school.I woke up at 7:43am and took my dog out for a walk.I was that girl who wanted to get her period so badly,I told my friends I got it, even though I hadn’t yet.Later on at around 12,I went to the bathroom and pulled down my undies to pee.As I look down at my undies, a massive patch of brownish-red fluid is sitting on the crotch of my undies.I started laughing because I was really excited but then started crying because I was scared.When I wiped, there was no red or brown, but light pink.I was really confused and my mum was talking with her friend in my room and I wanted to change my undies so I asked my mum if I can take a shower and she said yes.So I grabbed a pad from the cupboard and stuck it on my new undies and hid the dirty one so I could show my mum.Then I had a shower and put on my new clothes.Right now I’m sitting in the living room,writing this.It’s weird because she got her period when she was 17 and I’m sitting here at age 11,bleeding out of my private parts.

Well now I’m waiting for her to finish her chat,wish me luck guys. :*

Apr 15, 2015
Oooooh what the heck?

Okay so I was at school and I’m in 5th grade (11) and I was with all my friends eating lunch.then all the suddenly I got all tingly and blood started flowing out.I was so confused. My mom never got me any supplies or showed me how to use them so yeah.I told most the others about it and almost every detail like stickiness itchiness and the whole process. I showed them my underwear(we were close)and they asked me if I had a pad. I said no and they started planning me one. JM had a ton so she gave me one and showed me how to put it on and unwrap it and every thing. I had no pads at home and have dance that night.We also have a big field trip on Thursday and we’re going swimming on Thursday that’s an adventure for sure

Apr 15, 2015

This morning was the most horrific morning I’ve ever had. When I woke up today around 8am, I felt really uncomfortable around near my knickers. I could feel wetness. At first I thought ‘Did I wet myself?!’ But when I checked my bed sheets, no wetness or signs were there. So I was really scared. I went to the toilet and pulled down my onesie, then my knickers. 'OMG’ I said to myself. There was this really dark brownish colour spreaded around my knickers. It coverd up the whole thing. I was scared because I thought it was diahhea but when I rolled up some tissue paper and wiped under, the whole tissue was covered in blood. My mouth was wide open and I was horrified. It was my period. I wasn’t even prepared for it. I always thought it comes when you turn 13 but no. So I knew what to do as me and my mum had a convo about it years ago, just so I knew what to do when I got it. I slipped one of my mums 'Always’ pads and put it on. I was really scared because my mum wasn’t at home, she was at work. Plus my dad was sleeping because he does night shifts so I was basically home alone. All day, every one hour I would change my pad. I must’ve used over 10 pads today. But I was getting really panicked so i texted my mum. My mum replied 1 hour later saying 'I’m so proud you remembered what to do. Just keep checking on it every now and then. If you get any stomach aches, head aches or any other pain, take the painkillers in my room’. After that text I felt so much better because I knew what to do. I also looked online for tips which really cooled me off. But what I find stange is that I didn’t get any pain today..when will I get it? Is it normal not to have any pain when your on it? Well that’s it guys, my first day on my period 😁 Good luck to the girls so who are preparing for it, make sure you do because I didn’t and it came unexpectedly

My first period wasn't too bad

It was a Friday morning and I was getting ready for school. I got changed and then went to the toilet. When I pulled down my pants, I noticed a dark patch. I didn’t think anything of it so I did my business. But when I wiped my self, I noticed the tissue was a pinky-reddish colour. My first thought was, “Oh no!”. My mum was in the kitchen at the time (the bathroom and kitchen are next to each other) so I just came straight out with it. “Mum…I think I’ve started. The tissue is pinkish but I’m not sure” She told me put a pad in anyway and take some with me to school.

So I was in third period/Lesson (drama) and I could feel something wet down below. I asked my teacher if I could go to the toilet so I went and I took my bag with me, making the excuse that I didn’t trust the people in my class with my bag. I went into the cubicle and pulled my skirt and pants down and the pad was all red. I slowly peeled it off and wiped down below. The tissue was definitely red this time so I put another pad on and went back to class.

Later that day when I was going home, me and my friends stopped off at the park. We were all laughing, joking and messing around when I could feel a tingle in my vagina like something was dripping out. I took no notice and just carried on playing. When I got home, I went straight to the toilet and there it was again. So this time, I was sure it was my period.

If you’re reading this and you’ve just started or you’re worried about starting, don’t! It’s really nothing to worry about. My advice would be when it comes don’t panic! Just tell your mum or dad. Buy pads before you’ve started so you’re prepared. I think it’s easier to use pads when you first start but the really thick ones are quite uncomfortable so you will probably end up switching to tampons. If you start at school and you have nothing on you, bundle up a load of tissue temporarily and ask your friends if they have any pads. I’m sure they’ll understand as most of them may already be experiencing their periods. (Sorry this was kinda long but I hope this helps!)

the day I most dreaded came on the day I most loved

So this is embarrassing.

I was 12 and we were practising for the end of year six assembly and I had to go to the bathroom. The girl next to me came with me cause she had to go too. So I was sitting on the toilet and as I already knew about periods and was expecting it anyway, I looked down and saw blood everywhere. I panicked and cleaned myself up and was convinced by myself I had cut myself with toilet paper, but I put some toilet paper in my undies and went back into the hall just in case . Luckily we only had ten mins left until we could go home.When I got home I ran to the toilet too check on things and sure enough, the blood had doubled. We had horse riding lessons after school so I was smart(ish) and changed my undies and put more toilet paper in my undies. Only after horse riding class I told my mum what happened ‘i cut my self on toilet paper’ she believed me and told me to wash up and go to bed. The next day was school and so I had to tell her. I was crying and scared so my mum told my twin sister to say she got hers three weeks before (she actually did get hers. I tried school that day but was mortified someone would find out so my mum took me home. This happened in November 2014

Worst.Timing.Ever

IT was exactly 2 months and 3 days after my 13th birthday. It was at school and we had a free period since our teacher didn’t show up to class, so me and a few other girls were just talking. I felt a slight wetness, but shrugged it off thinking it was just extra discharge. We kept talking about music, then it shifted to truth or dare and ended up on the subject of periods. I felt really uneasy near my stomach but again just forgot about it. The bell rang and it was time for lunch so I got up to go to the bathroom and wash my hands. Instead I headed for the stall to wipe my underwear down so I wouldn’t feel the wetness. I pulled my skirt down and was sitting down and there it was lo and behold my period. It was a HUGE patch of brown-red stuff that was all gooey and clumped together and it covered the crotch of my undies. I wiped and saw blood. I wiped my underwear down, and rushed to class cursing myself for not bringing anything along with me. My friend understood what was happening and slipped a pad into my pocket and i rushed to the bathroom and changed into it. 

I got picked up early and the next 5 days i had to follow the indian tradition of sitting down eating fatty foods and not doing anything. Worst thing EVER. So all u girls out there who just got it. Don’t freak out just be proud that ur a woman and you can expect some higher respect from family members. GOOOOOD LUCK! P.s the first year you get it, it might be irregular. I skipped mine for a month and got it regular so thank mother nature i was prepared. BAI

12 and have had my first period

Hey guys 👋 it all started at my friends house, it was really awkward and I had no idea what to do! I didn’t tell my friend bcs things would just go really awkward. So I waited for my mum to come pick me up. My big sisister was in the front and she’s 15, but the most embarrassing thing is she had her period when she was 14 and I’m 12! I waited until we got home so I could get some privacy but I couldn’t build up the courage to tell my mum. I went to the toilet again and my underwear had red spots all over them! I threw them into the washing up basket and thought it would be the best way for my mum to find out. In the end we had a nice chat and told me it’s natural and so on, we’ve never been more closer to each other before!!! That’s my story xx

Okay we’ll it happend dyer school when I came home I was having stomach problems and I was like, I had too many cookies! :( so I kept going to the bathroom with no problems at all until I excised myself to use the bathroom AGAIN and I have had yellowish and white discharge but I thought I was literally peeing myself and was way too lazy to research. Anyways when I wiped I had blood.. FROM MY BUTT!? I was so scared I thought I was having diarrhea and was about to die cause it was a little more than usual so I calmed myself and I checked my front area and I knew it. It was my period. I tiptoed to my mom and got her away from my dad cause it’s awkward.. An I told her and she was the best help ever and she told me to take a bath and cool down and obviously she was prepared cause she gave me mini pads for smaller underwears and I felt comforted and I giggled at the fact that it wasn’t so bad. the next day was dreadful I was scared to use the toilet cause I dislike the sight of blood so I cried but I was comforted and that day I got to stay home cause of stomach pain. I hope you enjoyed my story :)

So annoying

why can’t there be like a specific date set for a girl to get her period? that way she would be fckin prepared. Anyway. It was 2 months and like a week after my 13th birthday, and the day before i had noticed some brownish discharge but shrugged it off not thinking much about it. The next day I felt wetter than usual down “there” and got all skirmish but again just shrugged it off. I was talking to a friend about “that” and decided to go to the bathroom and wipe my undies down so it wouldn’t feel wierd. I went to the bathroom and lo and behold there it was, covering the full of my crotch and several clumps of gah never mind. I freaked out but my friend came to the rescue and understood what had happened and slipped me a pad. I went home early that day and had to go thru the tradition of indians when a girl gets her first period or “matures”. It wasn’t bad. I got candy and money so it was nice =D

Predicted But Not

So I got my first period on March 5, this year. I had gotten a brown mark in my underwear a month before(it wasn’t poo) and my mom had gotten hers at twelve, and I was getting emotional. But I totally wasn’t expecting it! I knew I would get it soon but was hardly prepared!
So my mom was signing my sisters up for soccer, she and they were gone. My dad was at work, and the only other person home was my sister. (We are homeschooled) so I went to the bathroom, and noticed nothing in my undies because they were black. But when I wiped, a thick gooey red blood covered the tp! So I put on a thick panty liner(the only thing I had) and ran downstairs and told my sister,shakily. I started crying as she called my mom to tell her. My mom was on her way home, and my sister had given me one of her pads to use.
It was all fine after that.
The weird thing is, I got cramps on the last day of my period!:/

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! 😂

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!!!!

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.

Mar 16, 2015

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 :(
