Thanks! I watched part of the video. It’s funny that she’s only been using them for one cycle and now she’s making a video

DD1 has had her period for probably 3 years but has been very irregular. She only had it maybe 8 times. I think she is finally getting regular as now she's had it 2mos in a row.
She still struggles with tampons. After one attempt, she came out of the bathroom and announced, "Well, I don't have a vagina."
I am hoping she can figure this out and soon!! Maybe the video will help.

I know! And then not knowing about the two holes? (I will say I had a friend in high school who didn’t get hers until 16 and her mom told her not to use tampons or else she wouldn’t be a virgin anymore. But little did her mom know she started having sex at 15. But that girl didn’t know about the two holes until I explained it to her at age 16. If you don’t know how many holes are down there, maybe you shouldn’t be having sex. But that’s a different issue.)

This made me laugh because it is EXACTLY how I feel about peri-menopause! Thank God google and friends/family explained everything before it happened or I would be the Crazy Woman in the Attic. This is so helpful to think about, and I wouldn't have for my tween.
I will be following this thread and thanks for the head's up that I should be starting to introduce this stuff before it happens. We are still a bit from it (I think), but I think it will be good to start this kind of youtube / google looking at stuff online with her in the next year.
I posted this in the Lounge but wanted to post here too since several responded about tampons: https://13wham.com/news/nation-world...s-left-in-body
Mom to two amazing DDs ('07 & '09) and a fur baby.
Gluten free since Nov '11 after non-celiac gluten sensitive diagnosis. Have had great improvement or total elimination of: migraines, bloating/distention, heartburn, cystic acne, canker sores, bleeding gums, eczema on elbows, dry skin and scalp, muscle cramps, PMS, hair loss, heart palpitations, fatigue. I'm amazed.
So my DD (12.5) got her period last night! About 10 min before we were heading to swim practice. It was super light at that moment, so I told her to just swim without anything and we’d tackle the tampon situation when she got back. She didn’t want to watch the video, so I had to explain things myself. It was quite an ordeal but she managed to get it in. This morning was a bit smoother, and we will see how she did at school today. She says the tampon bothers her, but I can’t tell if it’s not in far enough or if it just feels weird at first. Of course she’s supposed to run the mile for fitness testing today (let’s hope that tampon is fully in ) and she has a swim meet tonight and she’s swimming the 1000 free . But she did say that most of her friends already have their period.

Good luck to your daughter at her swim meet. My daughter is a super athletic long distance runner and we have noticed she posts her worst times when she is on her period. May not be the same for everyone, but I wanted to mention it in case your daughter has a less than stellar race. It took us a while to figure out the trend and it was very frustrating/disappointing for her until we made the connection.
