Ok so I'm 13 and I got my first period yesterday. My parents have divorced so they have split custody. Currently, and when I started my cycle i am with my dad. I still haven't told him. I found about 3 pads that I have already used up. Then I fund some panty liners but I have to put 3 liners in my underwear and still with that I'm leaking. I'm really nervous to tell my dad about thisBrim running out of supplies.  My flow is pretty heavy. I'm changing the liners about every 45 mins that are pretty well saturated with blood. Is this normal? I've read that your first period is supposed to be kind of light. I get back to school from the weekend tmr. And I have one regular absorbency pad left for school. I'm really tempted to tell my dad but I'm so nervous that when I try to I just can't seem to talk. I got to my moms on Tuesday (today is Sunday) a should I wait to tell my mom? If not, how should I tell my dad? Sorry this is so lo I'm just a little flustered about the whole thing and im not really sure what to do. 

Thanks so much for your time. <3

Hi I started my period when I was 13 luckily I had my older sister with me so she helped me

if you don't want to tell your dad, text your mum and ask her to tell him 

he will be understanding  and will try to help by giving you some money mayb to go to the shops and get what you need 

dont worry you will get used to it it will be fine xx
