Ladies: what was it like the first time you had your period?
Where did it happen and how did your parents take the news?

First week of 6th grade. I had on white pants and someone told me I had gotten ketchup on them. Lol. My mom came to pick me up and she took it pretty well. I got the whole ‘you’re a woman now’ talk on the drive home. Then she called all her sisters to spread the news. I felt completely violated and that was when I started limiting how much I told her because I knew she’d never be able to keep anything to herself. She’s like that to this day.

@ProdigalSummer Why do moms like to share this stuff. When my sister had her first time my mom sent me to the store to get pads. I went to the store and got them. Didn't tell anyone what's up. I don't think my mom did either.
Hopefully when you have or had daughter you did not do the same thing.

Same with me I stopped telling things about myself when I heard my mom, grandma and aunt share it with their friends. @ProdigalSummer
