Hey!! Had a few questions for ya...

Boys, don’t read any further. It’s gonna be graphic. Yeah, it’s about the b-word. Boobs. So, stop now and thank me later.

K. So now that we got rid of the creeps, my 4 questions:

1) I have budding breasts. I am 10 y.o. You know, that uncomfortable stage right after flatness where they jiggle and hurt at every little thing. You aren’t there yet? Oh, it’s fun. *sarcasm alert*

2) So many of my friends already got their period and I WANT TO HAVE IT SOON. And no, don’t answer this with a “oh, you don’t want it.” Or, “everyone grows at their own pace.” I just feel kinda left out and I REALLY want to grow.

3) I’m sorta getting curious bout babies...

4) Uh... boys. Like I mentioned before, I’m TEN. Yet I have so many crushes! Is it normal?? My mom started getting her first crushes at like 15, and my dad, well, I don’t really know about him. My mom also told me that I shouldn’t start dating and liking boys until I’m about 12/13 (she was apparently a late bloomer) but I think that I just have those fun, raging hormones that make you have those absolutely great (sarcasm, remember?) mood swings and huge crushes.

Thanks, girls! Boys, I’m disappointed in you guys. I told you not to read this. That might have just changed my mind in y’all. See ya.

Okay...The parents can be on here if they want. There is nothing saying "KIDS ONLY!" or something. This nice mom was giving great advice NOT to you! I would say that it was great advice and it would be amazing for more advice from parents from time to time on websites such as this. So don't worry about it if it wasn't directed to you. I am gonna be really cheesy but "treat others the way you wanna be treated!" Would you like a person to put in all caps and highlighted in red against some advice you gave just to help a younger person. I will answer for you, the answer is "NO"!!!! That mom was helping someone with their problems. So just keep the comments you know may hurt people in your head.

Okay...Hope this doesn't make you feel bad. <3 Just trying to make you see that it was just some advice. No need to take her down for that.

Maybe? You can get it between ages 9-15, but it is a little rare to get it at 9.

Hi,

I know you had 4 questions and I could answer all of them but I really want to answer these 2.

3 and four

The first one, 3, that is totes norm! I’m ten right now and I’m also interested in babies! Trust me. VERY INTERESTED!!!!!!!! Anywho… I know you are prob around 12 or 13 right now because this was from 2020. Buuuuuuuuut…

Then the second one #4

Look.

I was interested in boys at 6 or 7. Ten is DEF NORM!

Hope that helps even if you are fine now. lol

Plus #2.… I know you said don’t say this but, you REALLY don’t want it. I want it. But my mom keeps telling me it’s not to pleasant! Even though you prob have it by now.

Don't worry,Nora. I am going through that too.It's starting to hurt again.For me at least.I'm 12 years old.And I, last year,Was going through the same as you.I think they just go back and forth, like they hurt and then they don't.I'm going through it now and it goes back and forth.I had to go to the doctors because I thought that I something was wrong. And the doctor had to check my You know what. And she said I was just budding.So don't worry you'll be fine.

PS Can you send me your number so we can talk?If that's okay with you.

Omg, I am having the same problem as well. Do you know what I did? 

Breats: So, the first thing you asked, hmm...breasts, so yeah, my breasts are budding and hurting really badly, when I was younger they were all flat now they are a bit more rounded shape, not as much as those 30 year old ladies on TV, but yes, a bit round. Anyways, get a bra. So, 10? Ur 10? Great news...so am I. Don't get a real bra yet. Get a shelf bra. Trust me, it really helps. 

Periods: SO..I ALSO WANT MY PERIOD TO COME SOON!!!! So, what I think you should do is talk to your mom. Really, you should. That's what I did, and talking to someone about my excitement/worries on periods does help. It really does. I thought it would be embarrassing, but my mom actually helped me and she was glad I asked about periods!! Also, it could come anytime, so maybe later you should get pads. NOT tampons, (they hurt), but pads don't hurt. 

Babies: It's okay to be curious about babies, I am too, me, rn, at the age of 10, wouldn't be so comfortable asking this question to anybody. But when I was like 6 I asked it. My parents explained the procces. Not too extremely but..a bit. I kinda forgot it now. But it's okay to ask your parents. It's better than to Google it. Trust me, don't Google it. It's what I did, and I found some NC-17 content. 

  Crushes: Ok, next, OMG, look-your not young to get a crush, do you know when I got my first crush? 7. I know it was so young. Now, I'm 10, and I still have crushes. My mom never talks to us about crushes, but, once I read this kids book, which turned out to be about crushes and cooties. Mom told me to stop reading it, I was like, "Why"?, she was like, "U girls are too young to be doing this lovey dovey stuff" And then I was like-"Too young? When will we be at the right age"? Then she was like, "When you are a teenager". So, no one can control there crushes though, right?

So, later, my sister wanted to watch this episode in a TV show where this 9 or 8 (i forgot) year old had a crush, and I was like, "Why'd u wanna watch that"? She was like, "Because I wanna see them get in trouble". Then I watched it, and instead of the mom in the TV show  getting her daughter in trouble for having a crush, she said  "It's ok if you have one". then my sister was like, "What? It's so bad that she has a crush. She should get in trouble "!!!! And mom was like, "She can't get her in trouble, crushes are just feelings, they are natural, she could say that you should think about this when you are older". So, it's okay to have one right now, my mom was a bit wrong and a bit right, but whoever you like, just leave them as friends.

My friends are waaaay early bloomers, they had their firsts when they were like 4 or 5, and...(whisper) their first kiss when they were 6. They still pretendly date people, but it's wrong. It's okay to have a crush, just leave them as friends for now. 

Puberty for girls sucks. I mean like, boys? Nothing happens to them, their voice is just like-growing. It doesn't even hurt. A girl's puberty does. Also, I can see you hit puberty so, read all of these things, and make sure you are good and clean. Anyways, hope this helped. Bye.

You can use sports bras too. I recommend more than magic bras and panties
