At least you were given a first hand warning. It was so embarrassing for me that I was the only girl in the class that got my first period. Like whenever I need to be excuses to go to the bathroom and change pads, I had to be discreet with where I should put the clean pad without anyone in the class knowing.
I was on a school break. Wow that mustāve been tough
I hate the cramps, I sometimes have illness, only had a 3 day one once and I was the first one out of all my friends, I hate using tampons and the day pads so I use night pads for school as mine is always heavy. Worst thing for me is when Iām ill and I didnāt bring any pads so you have to awkwardly ask your friend for some. (today)
The cramps are the worst. Especially when youāre at school, the pain gets super brutal.
Yeah, had it today
I know how you feel. When I was 11, it was so brutal that I started crying in front of the whole class. I had to go home that day. It was embarrassing because the boys had no clue what was going on.
It was pretty tough. After the other girls in my class got their periods, I didnāt like how one girl told this boy that I got my period so they can pick on me even though I was very discreet with where I put a pad in my pocket without them seeing.
I got mine when I was 12.
I rarely get cramps.
I have a heavy flow.
The smell becomes stronger and stronger as the days go by. Like fish.
TMI but like weāre all girls right
I can tell when blood is coming out LOL
I almost finish a whole box of pads every time
One time I wet a chair.
How I got it
I was going to the hospital and was about to leave when I felt something. I tried to ignore it but I couldnāt so I checked and I saw the most weirdest thing. It was brown, so I thought it was poo at first, but then I saw red. So i RUSHED to mother to ask and she was like āYep, youre a woman now. You got your period. Brb lemme get padsā I didnāt believe her until I got home, when I could see the blood. It was brown though.
First experience...
I was nine, I started during school time, I thought i shit my pants or somethingā¦ but my teacher explained when you first get it the blood is a really dark brown. Nothing much else to add.
Am I the only one who doesnāt get cramps or bad skin when itās my period?
I donāt get super bad cramps sometimes and Iāve never had bad skin with it
this had me creasing lmaoooo
damn girl, weāre lucky bitches.
holy fuck, letās not start with āIT SMELLS OF FISH, ARE YOU ON YOUR PERIODā¦?!ā
Yasssssss girl! Iām happy tho because the cramps on my family are really bad like I can tell with my mom and my aunt use to get sick on herās
omg i can relate, half the time I think my mum and sisters are exaggerating.
I had like 5 minute cramps when I first started but since Im ābrokenā acording to my sister I havenāt had any more in almost 3 months
Right! But like the last two Iāve had theyāve been kinda painful and my mom was like danggggg itās not that bad but on my cramp pain level they were reallyyyy bad
Youāre new donāt worry. Iām irregular still and Iāve had periods for two years I think? And my mom and doctor said itās normal Iām just irregular
