Boy/Girl Anatomy - Ack! They are asking!!!
I was 7 when I started wearing a bra and 10 when my period started. She
said that girls usually follow their mothers and since I was very early it was not surprising that Kathleen is. In addition there are almost 18 girls in Kathleen's class, I know for a fact that at least 5 or 6 in her class have breasts and one little girl is even further along the development line than she is. By the way, our pediatrician is the chief of internal medicine at Children's so I guess she might have a good idea of whether something is normal or not. Shirley "Chotii" wrote in message .. . "shirley" wrote in message news:UuFDc.162499$3x.76282@attbi_s54... Kathleen started to develop breasts at 8 and some odd and end hair! Needless to say I rushed her to the doctor who said she was perfectly normal. Since that day she has developed rapidly. At 9.5 (one more month) she is fully matured physically, growing daily and I swear she'll be borrowing my bra's within no time - and my shoes - she wears a size 8.5-9. I have no idea why your doctor considers onset of menarche at 8 to be "perfectly normal". Little girls are not meant to be mature women at the age of 8, or 9, or 10. They're certainly not prepared emotionally to deal with the sexual attention they WILL get as a result of being sexually mature. Not to mention that early puberty puts her at higher risk for breast cancer (and by the way, could have been treated with estrogen-antagonist medication). I think you were right to rush her to the doctor. I think he did you a disservice. http://www.center4policy.org/children11.html http://www.007b.com/early_puberty.php http://www.drgreene.com/21_356.html --angela |

Actually, you are somewhat right. Dr. Lapke said that it's about 2 years
after the breast buds start that girls get their periods. So I assume it will be about 10 or so. In addition, she is very tall for her age (tallest in her class) and projected to be about my height 5'8". Right now she is almost 5 feet tall. I'm assuming that this coming year will be a very big growth stage for her. She's wearing size 0 for pants and size 9 shoes (well some 8.5). I do know about the emotional side to this issue too as I had to handle it. Again, I think having gone through it early I can help Kathleen adjust too. Her best friend is exactly at the same stage of development as she is so hopefully they can go through this rite together. Shirley "Unadulterated Me" wrote in message ...

Interestingly those girls are very short and stocky/dumpy type physiques, not sure if early development stunts the growth or if a stockier type body shape leads it's self to earlier puberty. I know the earlier you get your period the shorter you will be as once it starts upward growth is slowed considerably (why put energy into going up when you need it for padding and filling) but not sure if their is a correlation with simply pubescent development.
