    Puberty for a 12 year old girl
    OK so I have think I am fully done with puberty but not growing I'm 12 I have gone through all the signs of puberty I got pubic hair since I was 8 it was embarrassing it still is because I have a lot of hair down there I want it all gone I can't tell my mom about this it would practically kill me 2 do that I am very shy and emotional I am very well developed I am the youngest in the entire school I skipped a year and I tend to be a little larger then most girls breast wise and girls hate me because of that I only got 2 friends that know what I'm going thur and I hate pubic hair so much and under arm hair :(

    Hi, doglover1!

    Is there anything else that's troubling to you besides your maturity with having pubic hair?

    Thanks!

    You are perfectly normal and it is OK to tell your mom. I'm sure she will be happy (once you talk to her) get you a better bra, show you how to shave your pits and show you how to trim the hair down there. You are normal and to me sound healthy.

    If girls aren't your friend because of puberty, chances are, there jealous. I'm your age too. When I told my friends so started shaving, they were like "So, Im gonna shave in two years!" I could tell they were jealous!

    Umm yeah, def tell your mom. She went through the same thing (im 12 too) and I know how it feels. Just tell her. It's worth it.

    Ok, and I am the youngest in my grade (almost in 8th) and its embarrassing, I know, but you need to get a razor and shave! Haha I don't know what I would do without shaving. Hope that helped... a little... -Micaela

    This is definitely something that you will be relieved to talk to your Mom about.

    I understand that you are shy, but you are developing at a young age and she probably isn't even aware that you are growing so fast. If you want to tell her, with having to tell her everything in the beginning... just tell her that all the girls in your class are wearing bras or that you think it's time for your 'first' bra, she will take the hint.

    Heeey,
    I'm 12 too, you should really tell your mum because I was embarressed at first...
    But I told her and it felt so much better I felt like a massive weight lifeted off my
    Shoulders.
    Pubic hair is normal just give it a little trim.
    Girls are probably jelous because all girls at out age want to have bigger boobs :)
