I thought when I started my period it was one day out of the month. Not a week. Three days went bye and I told my mom theres something wrong with me, I need to go see a doctor, Im bleeding to death.
A childhood belief about periods

others believed things like this
- My mom told my sister that if she didn't eat her peas, her period would last for an entire month.— Maya
- For years I thought that spunk was a male period and that boys spunked once a month - Yeah right!— Stupid Child
- i used to thought that period is when you pee like a baby for a few days...— i'm totally weird
- I thought that "tomorrow" was one of the days of the week— Frank
- I always thought that after 1999 it would be 1990 again, but with different months and days of the week
— optional - I once refused to believe in Thursday. I'd heard there were seven days in a week, but could only name six.Anon
