What is a period????

When will my first period come?? Since you first heard the word "period," you've probably been wondering what it is and when you'd get your first period. Although most girls get their first period between 11-14 years old, you could start your period anywhere from 8-17 years old.You could narrow that down by taking clues from your body. During puberty, when your body becomes sexually mature, you'll have some of these changes that show your period's on its way. (By the way, these changes may happen in a different order than listed here.)Developing Breasts. First, you'll get breast "buds". (Your breasts then can take up to 3-4 years to fully develop.) Generally you will get your period 2-3 years after your breasts start developing. Growing Pubic Hair. Right after your breasts start to form, you'll start developing pubic hair. It will be soft and thin at first, then gradually become coarser. Your period usually arrives around 1-2 years after the hair development. Discharge. This is the big sign. You'll start to experience vaginal discharge that will be either white or yellowish. If you like, you may want to start using Alldays Pantiliners to protect you underwear. You period should start around 6-12 (but up to 18) months after the start of discharge. There's one more way to figure out when you'll start menstruating: Ask your mom. You'll probably get your period within a year or so of when she got hers.Since you'll only have a general idea of when you'll get your period, you might want to do some planning.Most girls will use pads at least for their first period. Your first period will probably be fairly light so Always Thin Maxi Regular or Always Thin Ultra Regular would be a good choice of pad. If you are physically small, you may want to consider Always Thin Ultra Slender. It's a good idea to keep a pad or two hidden in your locker at school, and carry another in your backpack. This way you won't be caught off guard when it does happen.
Relax, you will get your period, and you'll have them for a long time!

Don't ask, won't know.

Hey Girlz it's Rose! :)
So lately my friend's have been coming to me with relationship problems because... Well I'm not really sure why. I think it's because I can usually spot chemistry between two people quite easily and give decent advice.
And now they've all asked me the same question 'How do you know if the person likes you?'
Well I can give you all the signs to look for, but how will that be any different then reading the advice from other websites or from a teen magazine?
They will all tell you the same things. Look at their body language, if they make and hold eye contact, if they blush and look away when caught staring at you. If they laugh at all your dumb jokes (everyone is guilty of laugh at the most idiotic things there crushes say)
The most important thing I will say to someone if they ask me about whether someone likes them or not is want is, 'I don't know, and you can ask as many people as you want what they think, but you will never know for definite if you don't ask them!'
Now after I say that you'll try and argue, but we're good friends that could ruin our friendship if they don't like me, or we have mutual friends what if they feel awkward and spend time with them and not me.
As my religion teacher always says, what if questions are always hard to answer. So you've got to ask yourself, do you think you like this person enough, to put your friendship on the line so you can be more then friends. Or is your friendship to important to you? These are questions only YOU can answer. You friends can't, I can't and even Lucy can't.
So if you really like them, and you feel something there, then by all means go for it, but no one can tell you or not, it's something only you and your crush can ever know.
Love
Rose <3
