So, this happened quite a while back. Annie asked me about menstrual periods because she heard her older cousin and some friends talking about it. She was only 8 then, but I figured it would be better to get the facts of life straight from your mum, instead of learning the wrong things from peers!
Mum: Yes, you will get your period maybe when you are around 12, 13 or 14 years old.
Annie: What?! (not too happy with the idea)
Mum: Yup, you will have your period for a few days, and it happens every month.
Annie: WHAT?!! Every month for a whole year?!
Mum: Ermmm....... no....... every month until you are around 50 years old...
Annie: WHAT?!!
Hahaha.. wait till she finds out what happens after that!! :)
