Re: clicky: girly q
unless I'm going for a run, when I have a tampon in I also wear a pad. I had a leakage experience that scarred my ego a little bit in 8th grade so it's an insurance policy of sorts
what sparked this question?
haha it might be TMI since it's KTFU related...so cover your ears/eyes if you don't want to know some gross details of pregnancy!
on the feb momz board, the girls are talking about the bleeding that happens after you give birth...it could be anywhere from a few days to a few weeks....and you can't use tampons/cup....either way, lots of the girls are saying they never-ever-ever use pads, and haven't since jr.high. i just think that's strange. i think pads are perfectly normal, but that's cause my mom has never used tampons.

that's dumb. it's not like "oh pads are SO 1996", I mean, sometimes you have to use a pad. The first day or so of my period is really heavy and it's just easier to use a pad. I also feel weird about sleeping in tampons. But I love tampons and use them as much as I can. My mom has also never used tampons.

lol so these gals are cool with pushing a kid out but concerned about having to go back to their jr. high days of wearing a pad?
Shouldn't they have bigger things to worry about?

agree! i use tampons mostly..but i like to "take breaks" and use pads in between so there's not always a foreign object in my body... i don't see anything wrong with using pads....
yup and yup!
lol, i *might* take you up on your offer! i'll have to check what i have at home..i don't use a lot of the heavy ones, and orange is the super heavy, right? i have mostly yellow ones and a few green ones.

my currently-reading shelf:
I don't get periods thanks to my mirena
.
Before, I used tampons exclusively.
i thought mirenas still give you periods............? at least when i last did research on it few years ago...

some people get them, but really light. some people get normal periods. others (like me) get none at all.
