Q: How do I talk to my daughter about this stuff? I don't want to have a sit-down about feminine health necessarily but I know her body is changing and she probably has questions. Any suggestions?

A: Well, first of all, great that you are thinking this way. The fact that you are one step ahead means that you can plan this conversation with your daughter and be prepared for it. Simply explain to your daughter that her body is changing and that there is a delicate balance in her body which can be offset a bit as she goes through puberty. This is all totally normal and if she's experiencing any new feelings she should feel open to talk to you about them.
