Well I think I'm just going to crawl in a hole now

I got Kylie a book that she is reading now that explains the changes she'll be going through. We've also talked about them, but not in as much detail. She's too antsy to sit and listen so I gave her the book.

I have the American Girl book. I have had it for about a year, but kept putting it off -- if I deny it will happen maybe it won't happen, right? I plan to read through it with Ashley. We have talked about a few of the changes, with the exception of menstrual cycles. I suppose I should start talking about it now, and this just confirms it.

Sorry this is happening so soon, but I am kinda relieved to hear you did organic and it's still happening. I tried to go organic, but never followed thru. So I can cross that mommy guilt off seeing it didn't make that much of a difference with Kylie.

And my dd is on the thin side and will soon need a training bra. She can get away with shirts that are patterned, but the solid tees from Justice are hugging and..well...you can see little bumps.

Yeah, that's the book I got Kylie. She got completely grossed out on how to put in a tampon. I was kinda grossed out about that one too. I thought the book was just the right amount of detail in it, except that....that was a bit too much.

Oh no Karen! I can't imagine having to deal with that so soon! I'm living in dread of the day I have to talk to Allie about periods and sex. I didn't get my period until I was 14 1/2. I started wearing a bra around the same time, but I think I'd been kind of needing one for awhile. I entered that phase of my life kicking and screaming.

I'm glad she's not freaked out about it though... your not making a big deal out of it helps I'm sure. My mom acted like it was a huge deal and we needed to have some kind of celebration, but I was mortified.
