How do you know??? (Girls only Please!!!)?

Question

When you've started your period. I've found blood on my toilet-paper, but not as much in my underwear - I think I started it, but I don't know - what are other signs?

Answer 1

A lot.  Go to www.beinggirl.com

Answer 2

bad cramps, boloated, tired! Congrats your a woman now! :-) now get some Kotex or Always Pads, and take midol or advil if the cramps are unbearable.

Answer 3

yes u did maybe tomorrow when u wake up there will be more blood

Answer 4

weird feelings in your uterus...cramps...bloating, gassiness, over-emotional

Answer 5

if there is blood, you automatically have it.  If you start getting cramps or if your b*****s suddenly feel more tender, or if you get more emotional towards little things, or if you feel a pain deep inside your stomach, you have your period.

Answer 6

you did

same happened to me itll be noticable in like a day

Answer 7

Well, it's usually light when you first have it.

you might have cramps but I didn't until like a year after.

and you might feel kinda bloated, like your stomach has a weird kinda full feeling and looks a little puffier than usual.

Just talk to your mom. I know it sounds weird, but it helps.

Answer 8

If it was just there once when you checked and then gone. you probably broke your hymen which is nothing to worry about.

if there's STILL blood there, then you know you've started

Answer 9

Congrats you started your period.

You may have tenderness in you b*****s

Cramps.

Talk to your mom. If you want to wait a day to tell her just sneak to where she keeps her supplies use a pad or a pantiliner you shouldn't wear tampons yet.

Answer 10

well i noticed it was in my undies

you probably did.

wear a panty liner or a pad.

Answer 11

You probably got it. When you first get it you only spot blood, and it's not that noticeable, just wear a panty liner and see. Also if you have any cramps then it could be a sign you have it

Answer 12

yea u started...

dont be scared though everyone goes through it.

other signs may be cramps

mood swings

and so on

Answer 13

is this ur first time getting ur period ever?! then u probably wouldn't recognize the signs even if i told u.

cramping is the most popular sign, i don't get it, but so many of my friends do, its painful in ur lower abdomen area.

bloating..like ur pants might seem tighter than before. laziness (tiredness)

lower back pain, cravings. i think u did if u saw blood on ur toilet paper...lol...otherwise its something more serious. ususally the first few times is wierd. then it gets to a normal cycle. yay for womanhood!!

Answer 14

That's EXACTLY how I started, so I'd say Congrats and you might want to put a pad on cause it's gonna come full on soon!

Answer 15

Well, you will start to have some mood swings. And probably like a week or a few days before you will have some really bad cramps, just take some pamprin, always helps me. And then when it comes, mosts girls flows (when the start) is really heavy, so its alright, its really nothing to be scared about. And also just use a pad. You should just wait a year or 2 before you use tampons so you get use to the flow.

Answer 16

i think u started..

u may bleed more.. tell someone so they can get you pads or w/e

good luck
