Daughter started her periods the morning of year 6 residential

Just not the best timing! She has period pants and pads but there’s swimming and water-based activities. Is there anywhere I can buy a period swimsuit and take it to her?

she’s probably fine but she literally started her first period this morning and has gone off on a 5 day trip :(

Oh poor DD! What terrible timing!

im very impressed she was still up for going! Xx

A million years ago I got my first on the night before my first day at Senior School where I knew no one (we'd moved). That was bad enough.

i hope she still has a great time.
