Ladies: How did you feel when you first got your period?

[Katy_16]

Were you happy about it or upset? Where were you when you first got it? And how old were you?

Personally I was very unhappy. And I think if I'm remember correctly I was at home.(thankfully!) I was 10. lol

I was just wondering cause my little cousin just got her's and she is definitely not happy. (she's 12 btw)

I was still trying to figure out what was going on with my body and was trying to come to terms with the fact that I was growing up. I was 11 going on 12 and I was at the mall on a weekend with my mom and my aunt. My friends where getting them so I don't think it bothered me too much.

I was upset. I knew what it was (or I was pretty sure) so I wasn't scared, but I felt really weird about it and I didn't like it. I stayed home all day crying. I was 13. I'm not sure exactly why it was so upsetting to me, I think I was just really insecure about the change.

I got mine at my guy friends house... It was 5 days before Christmas and I may have been 9 or 10. I thought that I was going to die and that I wasn't going to be able to spend Christmas with my family. Surprising I was pretty calm about dying... I even wrote a will lol I was prepared to die and then my mom found out 4 days later and told me what was happening to my body...

Honestly, it was the most traumatic moments of my childhood :p

Haha I know. It's kinda funny, even if you already know about periods and that your gonna get one, your first though is still "omg I'm dying!". lol

[crookthings]

I was mostly just like, "Well, there it is," haha. I was 12 and had been expecting it for a while because my mom said she got hers when she was 10.

I was at my aunt's house but luckily it was just a small spot :P

I was 12 and I got it during summer, I was excited and happy that I was becoming a woman and growing up. Nowadays I'm indifferent thanks to my pills :) yay womanhood!

[calialltheway1993]

I was happy because my body was ready to mature.

I was at school. I remember this like yesterday.

I don't remember my age but it was middle school.

I was really late starting mine so I was relieved cause I thought something was wrong with me. ha ha I was 15 then

[PoeticNinja]

I freaked out. I was only 7 years old. It went on for several months then stopped and I got it again when I turned 13. It was horrible.

So long ago., I was 12 and at home, it started light and I was relaxed but glad I got it.

Sad and scared.

I was at my grandma's when I discovered and she said I was becoming a woman. I wasn't happy about finally being a woman. I'm still unhappy about it lol.

I was 12 at the time

Absolutly horrified. My mom was very prudish and had not really told me much about it. I got it before my twin sister which I thought was totally unfair. I was 12. I was at home.

[BassistForever]

It was on a snow day. In 6th grade. I was pissed.

[Izzy2102]

I was 9 or maybe 10 honestly can't remember, I wasn't happy either I cried, but I got over it

[starlight124]

I was 11 and at school, it was awful

[larry69]
