there really needs to be more chick forums on the net
OK, so remember that I rarely get my period, 'cos I was anorexic for so long? Well, it turns out my body is starting to get normal and this is the first time in several years that my period has come in two consecutive months!
good news: I feel like a woman instead of like some little kid who never gets their shit.
bad news: remember that super duper hot dress? yeah, I'm totally wearing that tomorrow and I want no panty lines, which means- NO PANTIES.
therefore, I need a wear a tampon, right? well, guess who's never worn one before? ME!
I'm 25 y.o., so I really don't want my mom or anybody, for that matter, poking around my vagina trying to teach me how to get one in. There's no time for an ob/gyn visit, so I'm hoping that y'all could kind of show me the ropes.
I've tried wearing one before, but I pretty much start freaking out and the damn thing would keep sliding out. Well, today is the day that I WILL succeed, 'cos this dress is the SHIT and I will wear it tomorrow hell or high water.
Questions:
1) What brand do I get? What's a good "first time?"
2) How will I know when it's full and I have to change? My mom said it'll leak and I'm like "OHHH NOOOO, I DO NOT WANT THAT SHIT LEAKING!"
3) She also told me that it makes her bleed more, tampons- that can't be true, can it?
4) If you don't mind sharing, how do you put it in? Some sites say squat. some say put your foot on the toilet. what do I do?
Man, sorry to be asking questions that a teen/preteen would, but please please please understand that I rarely got my period in the past, so I have a LOT of catching up to do.
I feel like I need a bat mitzvah or something, haha
