Seriously, I cant remember a more embarrassing time than changing in the locker room when I first started puberty. I literally DREADED it, because I was so damn embarrassed of the little lumps that had started to sprout on my chest. I was the first girl in my class to start growing boobs, which caused a good bit of teasing. Anyone else have a hard time as an early bloomer like me?

When it was time for PE, I would literally RUN to the locker room to try and beat the other girls there, get to the farthest corner and swap shirts as fast as I could. It didn't help that because my nips had just started growing, I had not started wearing a training bra yet...so when the girls did see my chest, they would all giggle. UGH

So you are afraid the others will make fun of you because you haven't started growing? I guess I can see that happening if the other girls have some sort of growth and you don't. I wouldn't worry, I am sure your body is about ready to change

I was one of the early ones but not the first. I don't recall any teasing though. Maybe a bit of envy here and there, but it never turned nasty."Comedy is like sex. If they haven't made a noise in a while, change what you're doing" - Sara Pascoe

I was one of the last ones to start growing boobs, and that was just as embarrassing because the other girls had them and I didn't. I'm not worried now because I've caught up!

You know, now that I think back to that time, it was definitely more of my own embarrassment. I guess the girls didn't really tease, but they sure did stare, which used to make me soooo uncomfortable. What were the odds that there were no other girls that had even changed a bit...and there I was running around with super sore lumps

To be honest, I was one of the other girls who didn't develop til later. I remember looking at one girl who had little bumps much before others and I just thought it was really made me stare a bit because it made me think wow that's amazing, but I tried not to let her know I was looking. Some other girls teased her a bit but I didn't I thought it was mean.

I was one of the people that started late. Only maybe three other guys also started late. Now I’m all caught up

Yeah I feel bad if I was staring and it upset her but it was one of the most fascinating and beautiful thing to look at, and it was kind of a revelation. How old were you at the time? I think in showers after swimming the earliest girl in my group got little swollen bumps when we were 9. Until then I thought boobs were something mums and other women had, and older teen girls had them too, but they seemed to be like a completely different category to me and my friends, so it was like a realisation that we were going to change into the body shape of our mums. But it was so much prettier than big breasts to see the little swellings in my friends before me, and also fascinating each week to see how it had changed, because I could see a difference between weeks, and how the colour of the skin and nipple changed. So I feel bad if I was awkward looking, but it was about the most beautiful thing I've seen.
Wish were girls like you, and not some I knew that used it as another reason to make fun of me (though I'm not sure if would have made a difference to them when I started as they were like that before and after)

I wish that I had been strong enough to tell those people who were being mean that they should stop and think about what they were doing, but I didn't really say anything to them. What I did was that I made better friend with that one girl who was a younger developer because before then we hadn't been good friends. But I saw she needed someone so I made an effort and I'm glad I did because she's still one of my best friends today. -

I think being friends with her is the best thing people who are mean can get you down, but people who are nice and support you make it so better. Only need to deal with mean occasionally, friends can make you smile all day, every day
