Navigating Girl Talk: When Your Daughter Hides Her Period

Lately, I’ve noticed my daughter acting a bit more reserved, and I have a strong feeling she might be hiding the fact that she’s started her period. It brings back memories of my own awkwardness and embarrassment at that age—I remember how overwhelming it felt to talk about something so personal. As a mom, I want her to know she can trust me with anything, but I also don’t want to push too hard and make her uncomfortable. Has anyone else experienced this with their daughter? How did you approach the conversation and help her feel safe opening up? Let’s support each other through these growing-up milestones.
