I was 9 and remember being so thirsty the day before and telling my mum I had never felt so thirsty. I drank glass after glass of water. The next day, I was going on a family day out and in the morning, I went to the bathroom and saw I was on my period.
It made me so excited but also so worried. I didn't know how many times I needed to change pads, how many I should take with me and how to use them. I remember sheer panic and anger that I had got mine so early.
