I got my period 3am in the morning just before a family trip to Namibia!! Was interessting

My mom AND dad had this talk with me. My mom explained the basic higiene and practial part (showed how to use a tampon) and dad explained the workings and why (biology teacher - in awe of the working of a woman's body) Already WAY before I got my period and both my sisters sat in, even though they did not understand yet. We all sat in at each other's "period" talks

Then when we got back from the vacation, my dad took me out on a "date". Dinner, movie and a nice bracelet.

I'll definatly be teaching both my kids about periods. I feel it's important for a boy/man to know what a girl/woman goes throught and how to behave (discreet and respectfull) and not be shy to go and buy her some feminine products of her choice, if the need arise

I used liners after ds's birth and when going to the loo, dd would ask me if I am going to change my diper??
