i would tell your stepmom because every girl knows what it's like to get a period, and if she doesnt help you or yells at you, then she is a wrong person...its not like it was your fault you started
if ur stepmom doesnt work out, tell your dad. he might be nervous, but tell him to relax, its natural. and then ask for pads or tampons.
uhh tell your dad duh.
Tell your step-mom and she'll be tickled to help.
Well.. talk to your step-mom..it's probably much easier to talk to a girl about these things..she will understand and buy you what you need. Don't be afraid to talk to her..
and congrats on becoming a woman..LOL.. i know.. your period is deininitely not fun!
Tell Ur Dad :)
Have you got a teacher or a best friend's mum you can talk to? Your step mum may have already worked it out so try talking to her.
You have to tell someone because you need to get sanitary protection - any grown up won't be embarrassed, it's natural.
Okay, well I know that you are moody with her right now but she will totally understand when you say you had your period. She is the one you have to tell. She can help you and she will buy pads and pantiliners and stuff you need for girl time. If you absolutely don't want to tell her then tell your best friend's mom if you trust her enough. Or tell a trusted adult or counselor. If you want to absolutely keep it to yourself and there is no way around it(which isn't very great btw) just roll up toilet paper and put it in your underwear and then survive for just 2-5 days.
sweet heart, tell your dad its that time of the month and you need some personals things.
Im so sorry you feel sad about it , and sorry to hear you lost your Mum.Is there a kind teacher at school you could talk to about it?They would be very helpful( I am a teacher I know!) quite often at school they have supplies of pads.Dont be embarrassed it is natural and part ofbeing a woman.Im sure that your stepmum would help though, why dont you ask her?Good Luck!
If you're too shy to tell your dad hand him a note. he will probably be so sorry he misunderstood you but don't be surprised if he's shy too & just gives you some money.
Good luck.
Make sure to talk to somone. Tell your stepmom and she will get you supplies or go to the nurse at school and she will help you out. Good luck but try to let someone in the house know.
Tell your stepmom you need to talk to her. She'll understand your moods. If you really feel you can't talk to anyone at home, go to a school counselor or nurse. In the long run, however, you are going to have to talk to someone at home because they are going to have to supply you with things.
Please tell your stepmom. She will understand your moodiness when you do.
It must be tough being a stepmom, hope you both get on better soon.

hi I'm sorry things are hard for you periods can make you very emotional
I'm sure if you approach your step mum and explain you have started your periods she will either have pads she can give you or money to get some, what you need to remember she has been in the same situation when she was your age
hope this helps
even though u dont really like your stepmom it probably be easier to talk to her than your dad (trust me on this one, my dad still doesnt know i got mine) well good luck, oh and for the time being put sone toilet paper in your underwear so it doesn't stain.
GOOD LUCK
Tell your step mom. She's a girl and has gone through it. I was scared to tell my sister when ever I am on my period. But she has never left my side when I have cramps.
It is what it is, and you have to deal with it. That's the way life works. Who ever you feel safer with, tell one of your parents you need protection for your period. As much as you dislike your step, she's the one who will have answers. They aren't likely to let you run around the house and bleed all over everything. Besides, they may care about you more than you know, and they're having a hard time adjusting too.
peace
heyy.
sorry to hear about yor mom :[
But, as for the period thing, most people just say to tell her. I asked that q and the answers didn't really help. I started my period 2 months ago, and finally told my mom today.
If you don't want to say period or pad, like i did, i said "Mom, when i was in the shower, i noticed red stuff in my underwear". And then she was like, let me see. And yeah. She told me a little, and yeah.
You could either say
I started my period
I need pads
I saw red stuff in my underwear
etc.
You should tell your mom, though. It's hard, but remember she had to go through it also.
:]
ask a friend
What about your grandmother or an aunt, maybe if you told your stepmum she would then understand why you've been rotten to her lately. She would probably tell your dad and then possibly the spending money may come back.
tell a close female relative to tell your dad if your too embarassed... that way he will feel bad for not giving you the money and will stop him gettin embarassed too... or if you've got pads, leave a clean one (obviously) in a place where your stepmum or dad might see it, they'll get the hint then...
maybe an aunty... or an older cousin. or just come straight out with it to your dad. its not as bad as you think it is nce you have told someone.
