yes I have said to her that I don’t like it either. She doesn’t want to feel that she’s growing older so have to be careful about the ‘womanhood’ thing which I found out the hard way! She’s doing pretty well, not wanting to talk about it at all. On the way back from Sensational Kids I did bring it up, just to tell her that when she goes to the toilet at school, unless she’s changing her pad she’s not to take the old one off. She seemed ok about me saying that. I think it’ll just take time. As you say, it’s horrible for all of us. Unfortunately it’s just one of those ‘shit happens’ things that happen to us chicks!

I still remember when I got mine, even though my mum had talked to me about it I still wasn’t prepared for the brown stain on my reg grundies. I don’t care who you are, the first few are just very weird, so any wonder Beth is feeling so strange about it all. Just tell her nobody likes it, but we all must go through it, and maybe help her feel she is part of the “Womanhood’, if you will.

Getting your period for the first time is pretty awful at the best of times. Love the idea of the Powderpuff Girls. I did chuckle when I read that Beth told Paul not to talk to her or ask any questions. I can remember feelings like that! I know who to ask for advise on raising a daughter if I ever have one. Sarah, you’d be number one one the list.
