Okay, first of all be CALM about it, even if you're nervous. You don't want to scare her. Get her some pads, because that is a LITTLE young to use tampons. Get a pair of underwear and show her how to put the pad on, then just explain things like when to change it, etc. Things that may seem obvious to you, she probably doesn't know. So just take things slow and be there for her. (=

buy her some pads. if she isnt too freaked out, take her with you and let her pick them out and tell her how she choose them. if you want a good book on growing up try The Care & Keeping of You by AmericangGirl. they sell it at Barnes&Nobles. If you could try and get your friends to help. Have a sleepover and bring up that subject and get your friends opinions. Hope i helped. good luck.

Heyy<3 Umm.. this is a tough one that she is 8 yrs. old !wow! I never heard of that one but you should deffintly talk to her. Tell her that she is getting to be a big girl and tell her that she isn't alone and stuff like that. Reassure her and say you guys are in this together. Tell her she shouldn't be embarrased about this though even though she is really young. Pretend to be her mom. Ask your mom for help about this situation. If your mom talked to you about this ask her what she said and stuff. I hope this helps. Good Luck

well the talk you dont NEED to give her but probably SHOULD because she is already in the fourth grade and thats pretty old for not knowing, but that is the dads job. he can do that. but for the period. just tell her that is is for making babies and all that but she shouldn't go out and have babies. just tell her what you were told when you first got your period (if you have it already) for the supplies, she is to young for tampons, just give her a few packs of pads so she doesn't run out, and give her some little wrapped up portable pads for school to go in her backpack or purse. show her how to use them and when to change it and stuff like that. okay, i think i covered everything. good luck and just drop one in my inbox if you need more help!

just tell her whats going on with her body...since your 13 you probably know what it is. the talk has nothing to do with it except for if shes planning on having sex and making babies now that she has it. give her some pads...start out with pretty light ones and show her how to use them. its not a dificult task...people have been through this for ages. <3

Just tell her all she needs to know about periods. Check books out at librarys or go to websites to help explain. Buy her basic supplies like pads and/or tampons and tell her how to use them. just teach her the basics and add that if she ever has a question to ask you.
♥// aww.. good luck to you & her!

well i would just give her pads and tell her what to expect and stuff. there isnt really anything else you can do. or maybe buy her a growing up book or something.
