hi all,

My DD is 10, this evening she has started a light period. Bright red blood.

I'm a bit sad, as she is so young still and periods whilst part of growing up are such a faff and stressful.

Does anyone have any tips? Are there small pads for younger girls? What will make her feel better about it?

I've obviously reassured her she isn't going to die and it will be ok.

I remember having horrific flow and pain and needing to go on medication quite early, I'm hopeful she doesn't experience similar.

Oh bless her. I was 11 and just slung those awful Dr Whites pads but my DM was useless. My DF was a star and bought me stick on pads, black knickers and used to ask if I was ok. Periods are a bugger and I would give lots of cuddles
