Everyone is different. There isn't a guide book or check list to see if you have had your period. (it would be very help full if there was) :)
When i first started, it was just normal blood in my underware, like it was a cut on my arm or something. It didn't come out heavy and i didn't have any cramps. It's hard to know if you have had your period, but just make sure that you have the supplies you need at school and with you in your purse if you go anywhere. also, try to remember to wear dark pants during your period in case you leak. it's also helpful to have a jacket with you if you do leak, and it shows through your pants, so you can tie the jacket around your waist to cover the spot.
hope i helped :)

Hi,
I would say its your period. When you first start having your period it is usually a brownish color.
It will stay like that for a few more periods to begin with and then it will eventually turn red, no worries.
You can have discharge before and after your period; cramps can come along with it. The amount of discharge you have all depends on whos body it is.
As with your age, it does not matter. A girl could start her period at almost any age. Therefore, it is completely normal. By the sounds of it, yours just came a little later than your moms.
If you don't feel comfortable, ask your mom if she could buy you supplies (pads or tampons). She will understand because shes been through it before. Personally, I would recommend tampons, for you can change them easily and you can barely feel them at all. It is all up to you.
I hope this helps you! <3
