Hello Girls,

I hope your having a great day! Thank you for reading this! I just wanted to say that I started my period today. I did not get a lot of blood at all and I am wearing a small pad. It is not so bad at first. Any advice?

Hi!

Yes, you SHOULDN'T wear small pads anymore!!!!!

If you happen to have nothing else than small pads then you should add a few extra in there, but the best is to have bigger pads.

And yes, most deffinitley if you have your period, mark it in a calender so you can at least be prepared for your next cycle. And when you are close to having your period, you should also bring a bag with pads to school!!!! (Very important)

I got my Period when I was 10, yes in 4th grade. Big shocker, but no matter how old you are you should at least already know a little bit about puberty. My Advice? Get a puberty book!

One of the best ones= The Care and keeping of You, the body book for Younger girls

If you are already over the basics, then you should get the=

The Care and keeping of You, for Older girls.

Hope this Helped!!! :)

Hi! I started mine in October! Drink ginger tea if you're having ANY stomach problems, it really helps. For me, tampons are more comfy, but it doesn't really matter. Dark chocolate is healthier for you, and try not to eat sweet or salty foods on your period, bc it makes you more bloated. Warm packs also help! Oh, and make sure you aren't using any scented items down there, it can cause irritation. Hope this helped!
