Hey girl....I sent ya' a PM.  Having three girls in my house, ehhh, this is nuttin'!!!

I was 12 when I used a tampon the first time.......we were on our way to Galveston for a week and I was bound and determined to get in the water.  It was definitely an adventure figuring out how to insert it, roflmao......I probably wasted 4-5 before I was done (ok TMI, lol) if she's ok with it and you are then let her try.  It isn't the most comfortable thing until you get it right.

LOL~ I knew you ladies would come through for me LOL

When I started first off I thought I was dying...I was 8 and mama always said around 12-13 yrs old....after I laid in bed saying all my goodbyes to everyone, Kinda like a "Are you there GOD It's me Margaret" moment Mom & Dad and a host of family friends take me to Farrell **** cream place in southern cali) to celebrate...WTF....I bleed and they serve me ice cream....LOL  I was sooo embarrassed...LOL
We did take Courtney out to dinner that night...LOL
So, now I wonder if twin brother has done his thing yet???hmmmmm gonna have to find out....lol

Wow! They're just cruel aren't they?

  Actually what was cruel was when my Mom told my DAD to take me to the store to purchase the "Belt" and stayfree pads....My mom was recovering from ankle surgery at the time, and her big outing for the night was going to be Farrells...

If it were me, I'd probably still be in therapy over the whole thing.

Yes, it has been brought up a time or two....LOL
