hey homegurl. its shelly. ok first things first. a girl gets her period once a month and usually lasts about 5 days. if you dont know when you are going to start then i suggest you keep a little make-up bag (the ones u get from cliniqe perfume work great) and store pads and an extra pair of underwear in them and keep them in your locker, purse, or backpack. eyeglasses cases work good too. once you start, to know about what time next month your aunt flo (your period) will arive, you count from the second day you start as one and count the days to # 28. that should be about when you should expect it. it might be a little early or late because your young, but things will get easier as u get older. always, always, ALWAYS overstock yourself and be prepared. having an unexpected leak and not having enough 'stuff' is always enbarassing. if u get in this situation, ask your girlfriends for some and if they dont have any, go to the nurse. usually they have some; if not, then you can call mom. i wouldnt recomend using tampons until you are a little older and experienced b/c those can be tricky. the pads that i use and would recomend are ALWAYS brand. i tried the cheapies once and those were not good. they were all crinkly and loud. ne ways, good luck and dont be afraid to ask mom, or older sis, or anyone questions.
