It's not shiz, it's menses Smile

Welcome to the first step of becoming a woman!! You should celebrate this time, even if it is "icky"! You are doing something no man can do.

Your first period is bound to be extremely irregular, so don't worry. Just keep wearing pads or panti-liners until it's done. Also, you may not get another one exactly one month from now. I had a five month wait from my first period to my second!!

Talk to your mom; you should be asking her these questions, not us. This is an important bonding time with her; you've reached a very important stage in your life and I'm sure she wants to cherish it and be as much a part of it as she can Smile

Your cycles are just retarded lol.

The time to worry is if you are filling a pad (or tampon) in under an hour. Again, please discuss this with your mom! Her cycles may have been very similar to yours when she was your age Smile

It is completely normal to have this. Periods can be very irregular in the first few months, or even years! As time goes on it will become more normal for you. Congrats on your entrance to womanhood!

If you have a low body fat percentage (like a runner or something) that would stop your period. But if that's happening, you should talk to your doctor- it's not healthy to have such a low body fat that certain body functions start shutting down. That's what's happening.
