My little one asked me the other day if I had my period bc I was laying down. It reminded me of this moment that deserves a #repost 

What age is too early to explain menstruation to kids? We prepare girls, but it’s important to inform boys, too.

A question I get often. For us, around 3 is when they took notice. Why is mom laying down? What’s that? (Pointing to a tampon) Why don’t you feel good? Are you sick?

A simplified answer: 
Some bodies have a uterus - this is where a baby grows. Every month the body makes some tissue, while it prepares to grow a baby. If there’s no baby, the body gets rid of extra stuff - that’s what we call a period. Sometimes there is pain abd discomfort, sometimes there isn’t. 

What would you add? Do you talk to your kiddos about this?
