This is probably a sign that her boobs are growing, not her period. She might be a bit too young for that just now. Have her take a couple of warm/hot soaking baths during the week, this should help. Also try getting her a new trainer bra. Good luck with puberty.

I have known a 9 year old who started her period. I didn't start until I was 11, but I did have breast in the 4th grade (9-10 years old).
We all know tenderness is a sign of PMS, so let her know what may be going on so she will be prepared.
Also, make sure she isn't sore from some sport or activity; she could be injured somehow. (Just to be sure.)

I read an article several years ago at the doctor's office - there has been a rise in girls as young as 9 going into puberty.
It also spoke of the difficulties this raises for these girls personally and socially. She could soon get her period. I guess someone needs to have an early talk with her.

I remember getting sharp pains in my chest at about 10 years old, and yes by 11 I was a b cup..lol I bet its growing pains, but who is to say. I also started my period at 11. I wouldnt give you definite yes that it means it coming, but the fact that she is developing tells me its not far off :) Maybe when she is 10 or 11. Hope mom has had the monthly talk with her and just to get her ready, just in case. GL!

my little sister had that problem to but it was accompanied by a very like brown discharge. But at her age it could be growing or a period i started mine when i was nine as did my sister . there is nothing gross about it though. everyone matures at diffrent ages and that lady who wrote that is obviously no aware of that.

There is a good chance of it though it may not start right away. And it is normal to start so young, it just means she will reach menopause at a younger age. I personally started at age 10.

I developed breasts at the young age of eight and got my period at nine. The achiness is a good indication that her hormone levels are high and she could start soon.

I know girls that started having their periods at nine. Yes, breasts (that look a bit more fuller than usual) can be a sign that she's about to have her period. Other signs include:
*White blood (irregular discharge)
*Headaches
*Irritability
*Mood Swings (PMS)
*Abdominal Cramps
