I was 8 when I got mine, but that's very young!. Most of the women I know first got theirs around 12 or 13!.

Some signs of a coming period are mood swings, stomach cramps, back pains, and tender breasts!. When I first had mine, I was quite terrified!. I thought I was going to die, because I didn't know what it was!.

You may want to have your father (or a friend's mother if you'd be more comfortable with that) buy you some pads or tampons so you'll be prepared when you do get your period!. If you're very scared about it, you should consider talking to one of your teachers, a friend's mother, or your guidance councilor!. All women go through it, so I no one will think you're silly for asking!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was in 5th grade so i guess about 11!.
I was at school, it was a field day thing, and i was in dark jeans and i thought i had peed or something, i didn't know what had happened!
I didn't get any cramps or anything!.
I know it might seemed weird and uncomfortable talking to it to your dad but sooner or later your going to start and your going to need tampons and pads!. So i suggest that when that time comes, tell your dad you need 'girl stuff' or something so you can go get some yourself!.
good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hey
Don't worry i just got my first one last month!. Im 12 almost 13 about three days before i had this really bad stomock pain about three days before it!. The pain lasted until one day i found i had got my peroid!. Don't worry we all have to go through it!. When you do get it you will need to buy some pads and stuff so just ask your dad for some money for "some girl Stuff"
Hope you go ok!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I got it 2 weeks after my 11th birthday!.No symptoms!.Just came home after school and used the bathroom,and there was a small stain on my panties!.Sorry you don't have anyone to talk to,dear!.Isn't there an aunt,cousin,even a neighbor,Dr!. or teacher you could approach!?They would be more helpful and understanding than you might imagine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I started my period on my birthday!. My 11th birthday at that!. When taking a crush I liked to the county fair! Some birthday present, huh!?!!?!

The only sign I could think of was that I was cramping!. And I felt something not so normal but wet in my panties!.

Cramps are a major sign to watch out for!. At least for me, anyway!. Because my cramps become severe, far worse than poop pains!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I didn't get mine until I was 13 and a half, and I just had spotting and felt kinda wiped out!.
The first time is sorta scary 'cause you don't know what to expect, but it seems worse than it is, you'll be fine I promise :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
