I was 12 years old, and getting ready for bed one night. In the bathroom, I was surprised with some drops of red blood in my underwear. I yelled downstairs, and asked if my mom could come help me with something. Before I could even explain, she asked, "Did you get your period?"
I'm still amazed that she intuitively knew what was going on by the sound of my voice.
