The first time I had my period was when I was 12. I freaked out because for some reason my mom had the bright idea to not tell me anything about it.

One night I woke up and started crying, thinking I was dying because of the blood and the pain. My mom just laughed and told me all about it.

I was 11 or 12, and I didn't start till I got in the shower. I didn't grow up with my mom to teach me this stuff. I walked out of the bathroom and told my dad "Hey I think I'm dying" and that's how it went XD

I got my period when I was 12. I knew all about it so I wasn't scared or anything but when I got it I was at a restaurant 2 hours from my house with no supplies. So I had to use toilet paper until we finished eating and then went to a store.

Umm it was right before church and it was hella underwhelming. I sat on the toilet and thought I was dying for like 2 minutes. Called my mom and was like hey I think I just started my period and she was like oh rly and then I said yeah then she was like lemme see then I showed her and she was like yup u did welcome to womanhood and then she gave me a pad to put on then we went to church

I got it when I was 12, in the middle of the summer. At the time, I was at my Aunt's house, but then I realized there was blood in my underwear. I was too nervous to tell her, so I used toilet paper until we left to go to my Mom's house after an hour. I told my Mom, and she helped me.

I was 11 and super scared, and I screamed for my mom. She explained, and I was like “oh.” I really didn’t want to go to school, but she made me. I refused to get up from my seat unless I had to. I changed my pad every, what, like 20-30 minutes?

I got mine when I was about nine... I don't know how and I don't know why but it just happened.

I took my anger out on everyone including my parents because they didn't take me to the store as they promised.

I got time out for about 10 minutes because I was screaming at them, then my mom came in and asked why I yelled at her and I said ''I'm on my Period''.

My mom was speechless and let me eat the whole tub of ice cream for the rest of the day...

it was on my 10th birthday. I was already developed so my mom kinda told me a little about mostly about the blood. So when i got it i was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Im not joking i actually screamed that at my party. But i didnt know about period cramps yet and i didnt get them until about 4 months into it and my mom didnt tell me about it and i got them in school. I fell and was like im dying, in school, WHY.

It started one afternoon when I was 13. I was somewhat embarrassed, knowing that my mom would make a bigger fuss about it than I cared for. The next morning she gave me a rose.... That sounds lovely enough. But I found out shortly after that she made her live-in boyfriend go to the store in the middle of the night just to buy it. I was mortified!

I got it when I was thirteen but I was really scared to tell my mum so I didn't....
I kept it a secret for two years and used toilet paper....

then one day she was going through my texts and saw something about it and I got into heaps of trouble and it was awful. my parents still don't trust me for anything.

I got my first period in the middle of the night, but I slept right through it. It was right after freshman year started. It was a Monday, but also a holiday, so I lucked out. Didn't have the typical cramps or anything until the day after, when I already felt like I was wearing a diaper because of my pad (I dubbed them diapers with wings that day). If you haven't gotten yours yet, it's something you get used to. Don't be scared, be prepared.
