Advice for 9 year old puberty.

[Cockmagic]

Hi ladies hoping for some advice.

Took my DD (9) to the walk in centre as she had a bit of vaginal bleeding. Doctor told me it may be the onset of puberty. She seems so young .

Has any one else had DD this young start puberty?

She has no breast buds but a small amount of public hair.

Doctor told me she may have "spotting" for a few years before periods properly starts.

She is also autistic so is finding it all a bit much.

Any advice?

Oh you poor DD. I’ve met a few women over the years who have started their periods this young. Has she got any good books on how her body will change?

Thanks for replying. I've ordered what's happening to me me?

I found it in Amazon, hoping it helps!

Is it the Usborne one? I bought that for my DD when she turned 9

My dd started at 9, she took it in her stride although obviously different for your dd being autistic

Yes that's the one!

I'm just so shocked like I said she hasn't developed breast buds or had many symptoms.

She's also short for her age, always gets mistaken for 6 or 7 .

Poor girl. There were lovely ideas on a thread a while back, making her up a basket of lovely girly things she'd like. I fully intend to do one for DD when she starts. Does she understand what's going on?
