Default Twilighters: An important question *******POSSIBLE SPOILER IN REPLIES***********

Alright, so I FINALLY got to reading Eclipse... so maybe it gets addressed later or something but I GOTTA ask...

Does Bella have amenorrhea or what? She's 17+ in the books, surely she's had her first period by now. Would Edward have to liiiiike wear some sort of Hazmat helmet? Cuz I'm preeeetty sure Bella would go into convulsions if she had to be away from him for 3-7 days, no?

Anyone else wonder?

Anyone?

*crickets*

I'm so lame.

I can't even believe I'm saying this, but maybe tampons do the trick to keep that under control, lol .... the thought had crossed my mind before too

Hmmmm, good point. It never gets addressed to that aspect. AF is only referred to once in Breaking Dawn (don't wanna ruin anything for you.)

She must think at some point that she's pregnant, right?

I never really thought about it. I kinda figured that the tampons would take care of it I guess.

No, not at all Kat. I think it was just something that clicked in her brain finally. Has nothing to do with the plot or anything.

It wasn't intended to hold spoilers lol...

I'm just trying to figure out how she can cut her finger and they all go ape (well, have to cover their noses and such) but she can menstruate and they're fine. It's just a general question. *shrug*

At the risk of y'all throwing things at me...this is just one of many things that drove me to throw Eclipse across the room in total disgust ...never to pick it up again

To be honest, that is one question that never crossed my mind. Probably because I don't really care about that stuff.

It's not that we CARE about that stuff Paula. It's just something that she randomly thought about.

She's right though, Paula, it just popped into my head and I wanted to find out if I was the only one who'd thought of it

LOL I knew where you were coming from. I just didn't think about that certain aspect when I read the books. I thought of other stuff, but I probably shouldn't say since I'm supposed to be a nice Mormon girl! LOL

Maybe I dreamt it, but I could have sworn that Bella asked Edward about that in a round-about way in one of the earlier books and he gave her an answer but I can't recall exactly what it was. (So maybe I did dream it). Hmmm....now I'm gonna have to go a-huntin'.

That would be a weird conversation to have. "Um, honey - does it bother you when..."

Well, thinking it through now.....obviously in the beginning it would have been an issue. But after New Moon not so much. Remember how he said everything changed when he thought he lost her forever, it didn't bother him the way it used to.

I hope that isn't really a spoiler for anyone.

Stephenie Meyer apparently answered it on a forum somewheres....
Quote:
Several girls wanted to know if Edward would have a more difficult time being around Bella when she’s having her period. Answer: Yes, a little bit, but he would never say anything about it–much too much of a gentleman. And Bella would be way to embarrassed to ask. (It’s not the same as a cut, though. It’s sort of "dead" blood, if you get my meaning).

ROFL! All I have to say is this is awesome and hilarious! I think when you post this kinda thread on a Digi Scrapbooking blog, it's a good sign that you might be obsessed. LOL I know I am! But regarding the question, hmm I guess it is kinda like not seeing people sneeze or cough in a movies love scene.

By the way Paula I am totally feelin ya on the unspoken thoughts comment.

I've got to agree, this has given me a good chuckle and I've read every post NOW, it probably isn't mentioned because it wouldn't just be Bella that would cause all of them a problem. Lots of other females around.

Okay, I'll admit it, I had the same question when I read the books and I googled it.

Yeah, I know.

Anyway - the author actually addressed it in an interview once - she said it was uncomfortable for Edward, but not unbearable, because the blood was "dead" and didn't contain the same allure as live blood.

She also said Edward was too much of a gentleman to ever bring it up and Bella was too shy to ask him if it bothered him.

So I guess it was a common enough question :P

I just thought of that today... you completely read my mind. If Jasper freaked out last book ´cause of a tiny blood why edward doesn´t freak about her period times???? That´s a wonder...
