Preparing for your daughter’s first period

Preparing for your daughter’s first period

As a Mum who started her family quite young I found myself navigating the challenges of having children without too many of my peers with which to compare notes.

Now I am in the position that those friends are coming to ask my advice on how to deal with various issues that they are facing as their children are growing into adolescents.

Questions such as “What type of skincare should my teenager use?”, “When is the right time to allow my daughter to shave her legs?” and one of the most common is “How do I deal with my daughters first period?”

With this in mind I have prepared a Period preparation pack, which I believe is an important step in being ready for when the time comes.

Not only is it important to have all of the necessary items available, your daughter may have lots of questions that she would like answered.

We are very fortunate as parents that there are so many fabulous resources available for young teenagers now and I have included some of the links here:

http://www.ubykotex.com.au/menstruation/first-period/

There are even calendars on the Internet which enable her to predict when her next period is due.

Often we take for granted the access that we have to everyday items such as sanitary products. Moxie have teamed up with  AFRI pads to help supply Ugandan schoolgirls with ‘Deluxe Menstrual kits’ so that they do not have to resort to using rags, newspaper and leaves instead of sanitary products.  You can learn more here.

Lastly, one of the most important things that I tell my friends is to keep the lines of communication open.  Let your daughter know that she can come to talk to you about any concerns that she may have and that the door is always open for her.

Are there any other items that you would you include in your Period Preparation Pack?  How did your Mum help you prepare for your first period?

  2. God is Good!
    I promised God that I would share my testimony on this website. I had all the signs of STD Virus but I was not too sure as to which one. I did a lot of online research and scared myself straight for a whole week before going to see the nurse. She took one look at my genital part and first said that it could just be the anatomy of my body, then she said it looked like genital warts and that I MAY have herpes. I was devastated. She gave me some medicine for the herpes and some cream for the warts. I was also tested for every single STD including herpes. I went home and cried searching the web for all sorts of cures for herpes and awaiting my results. I saw a post whereby Dr. Kham cured Herpes and other diseases, I copied his contacts out and added him on whats app via +2348159922297. The next day my test result was ready and I confirmed Herpes positive. I told Dr. Kham about my health problems and he assured me of a cure. He prepared his herbal medicine and sent it to me. I took it for 14 days (2 weeks). Before the completion of the 14 days in which I completed the dose, the Blisters and Warts that were on my body were cleared. I went back for a check-up and I was told I’m free from the virus. Dr. Kham cures all types of diseases and viruses with the help of his herbal medicine. You can reach Dr. Kham via his email address on (dr.khamcaregiver@gmail.com) or call him on +2348159922297 and whats app him on the same number, but You can Also Visit his website to know more about him at https://herbal-dr-kham.jimdosite.com/ or visit his Blog at https://drkhamcaregiver.blogspot.com/ for more info.
