I’ll probably wait until nearer the time, then measure dd and just go up a size if she’s between sizes.

Sorry I should have said! It’s on the swimming costume (think it had 4 reviews)

Great idea. Our DD (when she was 12) went with me to the GP and we used the tablets as she was anxious about ‘everyone’ knowing.

DDs are now 17 and 15 so love these swimsuits.

Just a side note, we had this and whilst everything else was great, the tampons wouldnt come out of the applicator when dd first tried them. Quick trip to asda and Tampax pearl were the saviour. Dd is a swimmer and mastered these on day 1 of her first period. Obviously she was spurred into it and keen to master it quickly due to how much time she spends in the pool but just wanted to say maybe grab another standby brand too xx ps there are swimmers in her squad who use swimwear instead and dont seem to have any issues xx

For anyone interested Modibodi seem to have all their swimwear half price at the moment. Just ordered an extra pair of bikini bottoms for my daughter.

Thank you, I've been meaning to buy dd a costume for a while, this was perfect timing!

Thanks for starting this thread my 13 year old has recently started her periods and one of these costumes would be great for her👍

We are going for three weeks next August too and will have the same issue. DD12 had her first one in yr5. Far too young 😬
