Answers:
Being 8 and on your period is sort of odd!. Maybe you should check with her pediatriatian!. And it's probably not a good idea to have her start with tampons!. Stick to pads, first!. At her age, she probably has a light flow!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

It may be a good idea to talk this through with her, letting her know your concerns and ideas about her use of napkins vs tampons!. Let her understand what is to be considered!. Your daughter is at an age where she is able to comprehend various consequences of using each form of menstrual shield!. If all is discussed calmly and intellectually, she will understand your point and probably agree with you!. Set a time when you think she will be able to use tampons intelligently!. If they are not changed adequately, infection is a danger!. With napkins, she will know when to change them!. Remain calm throughout the conversation, avoid escalation of emotions, and reason will prevail!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

let her get used to it if she thinks that tampons hurt then let her wear pads its that easy

the playtex sport one's are skinnier and don't hurt at all

let her read the instructions and let her try a few times and then she'll figure out what she wants to do

Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

I wouldnt let her use a tampon yet!. I had my period for a year before i started to use a tampon!. When your a virgin and you first use a tampon, personally, it hurt going in and coming out the first couple times!. I would let her wait a year or twoWww@Answer-Health@Com

You should take charge as you put it!.!.!.!.she's only 8 years old! You have to consult the doctor if having tampons is fine for an 8 year old!. Let her hear what the doctor has to say!. Then both of you will be happy at the end of the day!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

take charge, don't be harsh tho!. it's too early for a tampon i guess!. let her start with the napkins!. she'll get used to it!. i guess she just doesn't want the inconvenience of having a thick thing making her uncomfy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

This is an issue that requires a consultation with a doctor or other professionally trained person rather than getting opinions on yahoo answers!. Take her to the doctor and let the doctor advise you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

8 year old!? gosh thats a little early but okay!. How bout you DONT let her do it!? A friend of mine fainted when she tried that so dont even put her in the position!. take charge fast!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

let her wear them, she will be less self consious!. they have starter packs that teach you how to use them and they are smaller tampons!. she wont get hurt if you explain how to use themWww@Answer-Health@Com

how would a wad of cotton injure her!? She may not like the diaper feel of pads or she may feel that people can tell she is wearing one so a tampon may be a better, less self concious option!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

no!. Don't let her!. they don't make tampons for her size!. and as an 8 year old, She is not yet resposible enough for one yet!. stand your ground! an 8 year old!.!.!?!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
