[tri-med] Re: Breast buds . . . Menstruation

Seems to me Miss P was 13 when she started menstruating.  But she'd been out
of
diapers since she was 8.  Does need help though with her pads though, and
I've
had some really big messes to try to clean up in some of her cloths over the
last
11 yrs...especially when she first starts up (usually found the next
morning).
Panties are semi disposal items around here.  Oh, I recycle them for as long
as
I figure I can get away with it and not have her program personnel report me
as
negligent, but about every few months I buy another 6 pairs and throw out
the
worst stained old ones.

My skinny little vegetarian Lara had the same kind of response when the
psych
hospital put her on Respiradol and Paxil after 9/11. And even though we
weaned
her off of them back in '02, she'll still never be able to get into a sz 3
again.  Although secretly, I kinda think she likes what it did to her bust
line.
