I think their's something wrong though, because last night, I put on 2 maxi pads b4 going to bed. This morning, both maxis were soaked with blood!I told my mom and she thought it was a bit weird considering I'm 11 and it's my 3rd period. But she said not to worry about it. I'm still scare. It just looks like a lot of blood to me. Please tell me how much blood you loose in an average cyce, and if I should be worried or not. Thank you.

 You are perfectly fine, you can relax! All my friends, including me have had varied amounts of blood each month. I have found in the night i bleed much heavier than in the day. Each individual has a different menstrual cycle. Some people get cramps others are lucky not to.
It is normal, and for the irregular periods that is because you body is just getting used to the fact you are growing up!
I hope i have shown you that nothing is wrong!

then i had to take all these tablets to make it lighter
so i really would get it checked out as soon as poss
take care x

 Every girl's different...There's no average. Sometimes that's the way your menstrual cycle goes...If you're really worried, give your doctor a call. I'm sure you're fine though. Sometimes's they're irregular if there's been a change with your body and I'm sure your body is just adjusting to having periods.
