Is Your Daughter Approaching 9? Let’s Talk About Her Body
My daughter is 9 and will soon be 10, and right now we are having these conversations. She is curious, asks questions, notices changes, and wants to understand what is happening. That curiosity is exactly what helps her feel confident and in control.
Her body is amazing. Even before her first period, hormones are waking up, helping her grow and develop. Some things she might notice:
• Breasts developing. Tender or uneven growth is normal
• Acne. Pimples can appear as hormones start working
• Mood swings. Emotions can feel extra strong
It is okay to feel all of this. She is not alone.
The FEMM Teen Method teaches her to track and understand her body, moods, and changes. It helps her:
• Learn about hormones and emotions
• Recognize her unique cycle before her first period
• Take care of herself in ways that feel right
• Feel confident and aware during this exciting transition
I know these conversations can feel difficult or uncomfortable. If you would like support, I offer menstrual cycle wisdom sessions tailored for teens. Visit www.celinenellinutrition.com to book a clarity call.
