"Mom" I hope you know how amazing you are and how much you are loved by all 4 of your children (and me!) I can only hope to one day be as great of a mother as you are!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-947964490177680498.post-81761654174589643022007-03-21T14:01:00.000-05:002007-03-21T14:01:00.000-05:00Ashley has every sign of menarche but she has not ...Ashley has every sign of menarche but she has not actually started. All the other things (hormone cycling, breast development, etc) have been present for a long time. Her pediatrician, and now her gynegologist are concerned that she has a blockage which may be preventing our actually seeing the bleeding. She SHOULD have started by now. She is now scheduled for an ultrasound to help us determine if there is actually a problem. The decision to visit a gynecologist was a result of increased seizure activity (seizures which had been previously controlled by meds), also matching up with the cyclical nature of her other signs of puberty.Ashley's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05621835327282616218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-947964490177680498.post-7363588975895030112007-03-21T12:46:00.000-05:002007-03-21T12:46:00.000-05:00Why on earth would a non-sexually active 12 year o...Why on earth would a non-sexually active 12 year old who hasn't experienced menarche need to be seen by a gynecologist?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
