When I was young I had my first one in August and my second one in.....January, perhaps?

[lonly-girl.livejournal.com]

wow thats weird!

[skeptictank.livejournal.com]

Yeah then it was about 4 months before the one after that...I'm 20 now (that all started about 6 years ago) and I'm JUST starting to be regular (like, within the same 10 days or so every month.)

Shouldnt it get regular after 2 years? Bc i hate having to carry around my purse EVeRYWHERE! bc i dontknow when ill need it!

[skeptictank.livejournal.com]

Oh no. I'm telling you, some girls get lucky, but even those who are regular for years & years will sometimes start having crazy cycles for no reason.

Birth control would help you get a good idea of when it was going to come (within a few days) but I wouldn't start with that until I really needed to for whatever reason if I were you. And I don't usually carry a purse at all...typically a quarter for the dispenser and a fat wad of toilet paper can keep things under control until I can get to a proper tampon/pad.

YA the pads at ouir school are 2 iches think and high!!! siriously!!!!!! its so disgusting, i tried one once and i couldnt move!

Your best bet is to keep one in your backpack or locker ALL THE TIME just in case you ever need it (or if a friend ever does, for that matter) In fact, my winter coat has an inside pocket that I always keep a pen & a tampon in just in case I should ever need either of those things. They don't weigh a ton or take up much space so it's better to be safe than sorry.

[lonly-girl.livejournal.com]

YA true, we havnt gotten lockers yet, but thats a good idea thanx!

As the other comment says, that's not at all unusual. I went nearly a year between my first and second period, then settled into a regular cycle within a few months.

I think if it's not here after about a year and a half, that would be the time to see your doctor. Before i went onto the pill i'd go months and months without a period and i've been having periods for years. My mom had her menarche and didn't have another for a year so absolutely anything is normal.
