I was around 10, woke p in the morning looked down and... freaked out completely, mum kept me from school that day and popped down to the doctors for a check up, i was not a happy bunny sweatdrop

[omg its nimbus]

i was thirteen years old.
went to the loo, and saw brown stains on my panties.
i thought i crapped myself--
so i started washing my underwear so no one would know i crapped myself.

I got my first period two days before my 12th birthday. It was terrible, and I was so ashamed of it that I cried. xD

I was 12 when I got mine. I'd heard of periods and seen pads/tampons, but didn't know to much about the whole process.

Since mine start out dark brown I spent the first two days crying and keeping it a secret thinking I was either crapping myself without realising or my intestines were going to fall out! rofl
Monday morning comes and I see some red blood. I knew that meant it was my period BUT I thought that once you had it, you'd NEVER stop bleeding.
So I cried even more and told my dad that I thought I had them. He gave me an awkward hug and told me to phone mum at work. She laughed and told me how to use pads over the phone. I made her promise not to tell anyone, but she was proud as punch and told my extended family and friends' parents! D:

And my dad made me go to school anyway.
Booo ):<

I started while taking the SATs for the first time when I was 12.

I was 10 and I woke up with horrible pains...didn't know what it was...went to the bathroom and found blood in my knickers.

Got teased by the other kids at school and got sent home.

Tah dah!

I was like, 13 when I got mine.
I went to the toilet + there was brownish stuff on my pants.
So I remember sitting up all night texting a friend saying,
"Hey, i think I`ve started my periods, but idk!"
"How the hell can you not know?"
"Idk!"
So she told me to "just stick some toilet roll up there" and wait and see.

Mine is not very interesting sweatdrop

Mine actually wasn't a disaster. I had recently read a book called "The Period Book" (such a nice title. XD) and I kind of realized I was getting PMS and then I was prepared. But I remember trying to move like as little as possible all day. XD Thankfully it was summer so I was able to get used to it before school. lol
It's not very funny, but it worked out pretty well which is apparently not very common. :p

I had been anticipating mine for a while and when I noticed a few signs,I didn't want to take any chances and I put a pad on and that evening I got extremely emotional for some uber strange reason and then I go to the bathroom and BAM! I gots my period...I celebrated for like 5 seconds then the cramps kicked in.This is why I call it "The Calamity" every time it comes. xd

[bodyslam bailey]

I never heard of it before I got it so I was really surprised and kind of scared. I was laying on the couch watching some tv, I was at the end of being thirteen years old.
I let out air redface then i felt wetness. I ran into the bathroom and saw it was red. I was scared.
My Mom came in and helped me.

Kind of embarrassing to me. redface
