How Do I Explain My Daughters Period To Her, She's 10 And Non Verbal
So, my 10 year old started her period almost a year ago now, but up until just about a month ago it was very light, just spotty, but now she is having heavy bleeding.

Aloha! I feel for you. My daughter had her first menses at 10 also and is non verbal. It took a while to teach her that she has to leave the pad on and not play with the blood.

At night she wears a diaper for nocturnal incontinence so no need for a pad.
As far as rashes you could try cloth pads. I know this is rough on the men but so is taking your baby for an exam for rashes etc down there. It would be worth it I think. Also flushable wipes or just regular baby wipes, she may be wiping too nuch trying to get the blood off.
I hope this helps a little 😊
