Early puberty?

My DD7 is showing signs of puberty, according to the nhs website it's normal between 8-13 for girls and DD turns 8 in a few weeks but it still feels very early.

Would it be an overreaction to go to the gp given she is pretty much in the 'normal' range for start of puberty?

I don't think it's necessary. I had 2 friends start their periods at 9.

I'd maybe book a phone appointment and discuss it first without mentioning it to dd. You dont want to worry her unnecessarily.
