DD is just turned 11. She's been getting a daily white discharge for a couple of months now and started getting stomach cramps at the weekend. I've had to pick her up from school today as she was complaining of cramps again and she's now asleep in bed with a hot water bottle.
Just wondered if that was an indication that things might start soon? Or if this can go on for a while? She's not especially well-developed. She has breast buds but isn't wearing cropped vests yet. Though we do have teary and shouty days.
I guess I need to get some pads in anyway. She has already said she doesn't want to use tampons, though in time I hope she would like to try the mooncup. But she's anxious she's going to start any minute now and has asked me to look it up on the internet.

How long after these signs should I expect DD's period to start?
