I got my period the one time my parents decided to take a vacation without my sister and I. This was a blessing and a curse. The blessing was that I got to make my way into womanhood with the support of my cousin, who was two years older and already well versed in the period game.
BUT there are times where a gal just needs her mama, and this was one of those. So, I was excited to tell my mom when she got back but really had wished she was there. Besides that, my first period was pretty breezy with mild cramps and comfy pads!
