Hello, I think I started my periods today because when I went to the toilet there was blood down the toilet then I wiped my vagina and the was blood on the tissue, so I shouted of my mum and sge said I have started my periods but I haven't bleed any more since about 5:30 this afternoon when I discovered the blood. So have I started my periods:confused: is my mum wrong:confused:

It seems as though this is your first period? No, sweetie, your mum isn't wrong. Sometimes when we first start having our periods this will happen. You may have a heavier flow later tonight or tomorrow, but this is your period.

It will be strange for the first few months, you may even skip a month or two, or even three. But in time you will most likely become regulary and have it around the same time every month.

No honey, your mum isn't wrong. I take it that this is your first period.

Usually when you're on your period for the first time, you don't bleed as much.

Yes this is my first period.but when do you think I will bleed again because I haven't blead since about 5:30 when I first discovered it?? X

No one can tell you when your period will start up and when you start to bleed. It may be minutes, hours or maybe even a day.

XxgemxX agrees: I wasn't very sure if I started my periods or not and I can get answers on here so I don't have to be embaresed to ask my family.

Sweetheart, do not be afraid to talk to your mother. She was a young girl once too, she had her first period once, just like you are now. She would be very pleased and proud that you can talk straight forward to her about this.

I know it is a little scary at first, but it will create a bond with your mother that you did not have before.

OK, but what can I do about my holiday in June? X

Rockabilly1955mama · May 19, 2007, 04:23 PM

Yes my dear, you have.

Pack some sanitary pads and take them with you. You may find you don't even get your period then.
