Today, I had a gymnastics meet. I thought I was done with my period, but when I was up on the beam warming up my routine, one of my coaches called me down and told me that I apparently wasn't. My coach goes around asking my teammates moms if they had any pads. My dad caught this all on tape. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, during gymnastics tryouts, I tried one last move to impress the judge, jumped up but landed crotch first on the beam. I fell off, curled up in pain while everyone just stayed frozen, still waiting on the judge's pick. She barely glanced at me then picked the girl next to me, who ran off happy. FML
Today, I came down with sudden diarrhea while at Tae kwon do practice. I discreetly called my dad for a pickup, but on our way out, he told my instructor that I had to go because I was "shitting my pants with fear." He did this in front of all my classmates. FML
Today, a new session started for my swimming squad. I walked down to the pool, tripped over a stray equipment bag, and belly-flopped into the pool in front of everyone, fully clothed. I'm the coach. FML
Today, I got my period, and had to rush to my parents' bathroom for some pads. They'd put all our wrapped presents in their bathroom. As I was looking, my dad thought I was opening presents and barged in, only to see me with my pants around my ankles. Now he won't stop laughing. FML
Today, I was at a swim meet. I was on a relay team and I was the anchor. My team was in 1st. I was ready to dive in when I saw my tampon string was hanging out of my suit. I freaked, slid off the block, and fell on top of the guy before me and gave him a concussion. We got DQed for a false start FML
Today, I had to go through the embarrassment and pain of telling my parents I was pregnant. I took the test and it came out positive and I was freaking out. I got grounded for the rest of the year and they're really disappointed in me. Five minutes ago, I got my period. FML
Today, I called my mom to tell her that I finally got my period. There was an awkward pause. She was at work. I was on speakerphone. FML
Today, I was coaching at a swim meet. I heard a few of my swimmers screaming about a huge wasp on my head, so I told everyone to stay calm because we didn't want to upset the wasp. Unfortunately, I was interrupted by another coach from our team hitting me repeatedly on the head with a clipboard. FML
Today, I was in band rehearsing for a big concert coming up. Since the band was practicing with the orchestra and there weren’t enough seats, we had to stand. My back was facing everyone when my friend tapped me on the shoulder and pointed to my ass. I got my period and everyone saw the stain. FML
Today, while practicing my gymnastics routine on the uneven bars, I was so distracted by my teammates' conversation about a party later that I miscalculated my flip and smacked my head on a bar. Ten stitches and a concussion later, I was left alone in the hospital. FML

too much muscle mass and not enough body fat makes it so the body doesn't register growth. so it can stunt height growth and maturity growth

I've been doing gymnastics and tumbling since I was three (sixteen now) and I can assure you that you still grow and get your period.

Awwww, that's TERRIBLE. I'm so afraid something like that's going to happen to me. Mine will go away and then randomly reappear a few days later sometimes too, so I can sympathize :(

aww sorry. i actually got my first period at mt 8th grade graduation, i was wearing a white skirt when i went up to get my diploma at the ceremony in front of EVERYONE! good thing it was really light and hardly noticeable. but it happens to everyone. and stfu number #4. if it wasn't for girls getting their period, you would not have been born... actually that doesn't sound so bad!

#4 and #6, you're douche bags. #4 I already reported you for being an ass so I'm not going to go further, but #6, that's just rude. I mean, I'm almost 20, have had my period for what, 7 years? I figure I'm grown up and I still ruin underwear by thinking I'm done my period. Don't tell her to 'grow up'. It's a simple mistake and our bodies can be finnicky sometimes.

@16 - "#4 I already reported you for being an ass" really? Is there a rule about being an ass? If so is there a rule about being stupid because 4 was making a JOKE. Do you know what that word means??

Why would you wear a pad with a gymnastics uniform? Isn't it tight enough to be able to see it? Unless it was at least a day after you thought you finished, you deserved that for not wearing something just in case.

When I used to do gym I used to get scared of that happening, I feel so bad for you.

Yeah when I go to karate I am scared of this happening, since we wear white pants. My period actually started one time at karate but it was near the end of class and I don't think anyone noticed.. OP, FYL. I'm really sorry about what happened and your dad shouldn't have filmed it.
