I figure skate 5 times a week and everything was fine until I started my period. I started it 3 months ago and didnt have cramps or anything. My period also didnt come back until now! And I have really bad cramps. Im only 13 as well. My mom was taking me to practise after school and I told her how bad I felt. She gave me painkillers just before I went in and told me to tell my coach straight away.
I was going to but when I got in, it just felt too akward so I waited for the pain killers to work. My coach is a woman and I have one on one lessons with her for about 4 years now so Im comfortable around her, just not when it comes to periods for some reason.
So while I was skating my coach was watching me and I felt strong waves of pain striking my stomach. I kept grabbing on to it and slowing down. My coach skated up to me and asked if Im ok and I said yes and then I got tears in my eyes. She then said !!!! 'Riley, are you on your period?'' WHAAAT? HOW COULD SHE POSSIBLY TELL? is it that obvious? It was so akward I said yes and that I have bad cramps. She helped me off the ice and then told me about them. Like what to do while skating which helped a lot and that was so nice of her but my mom told me how to handle them, I just cant handle cramps
And she told me to ALWAYS tell her if Im on my period. WHY?
I also feel very embarrissed now that she knows. I dont even know why! I dont know how I will look at her tommorow
And also how did she tell Im on my period?
Thanks straight away any answers are very appreciated
