I've been BFing since July and not had a period yet.

Is it wrong that I was totally excited about this and planning a trip to Boots when I have a stash of about four boxes of tampons and haven't had a period for a year?!

LOL - no sadder than me planning to go back and buy more when I have just bought 160 tampons!! It is not like they won't get used!

Since I went on Cerazette I seem to bleed all the time so I get through a few!


I will have loads of spare little pink candy-striped tins though!!




Edit - LOL Pinkpig - I am pretty sure I haven't flicked any switch in the back of the glowworm!! I just thought he was crap and I don't even know where he is now!!!

Ooh, I'm excited about the pink candy striped tins!

Okay, slightly related question....I have loads of sanitary towels leftover that I bought before I had baby to use for bleeding but didn't need. I always use tampons and so do all my friends, should I save them for possible next baby or donate them to somewhere?

Yeah sami, bum cliff! I couldn't figure out a word for it either, it's hard to describe, but I think it suits it nicely

My gran has one, you could sit on her one and be carried around, or at least stick a can of pop on it!

Gisi - I gave mine to my friend who is due any day. Felt a bit odd, but no reason to be shy I suppose!

Periods - most recommend using pads for the first period, I assume I'm exempt from that as it has been 9 months since I gave birth? if/when I get a period, can I use tampons?

Alice has been invited to all the weddings we have been invited to since she was born. I'm not sure how practical it would have been to go if she hadn't as all of them were at a distance so we were away staying in a hotel except for one which we went to on the way home from OH's parents (who are about 250 miles away). I certainly wouldn't be offended but probably wouldn't attend if only one of us could go unless it was local. When we got married, we had a limit on the number of people we could have (which was based on how many people could fit in the chapel) and we just worked through our list of priorities of who we wanted until we had reached the limit. If a friend was married with three children then we just counted them as five people.

I totally agree - if a child isn't invited, then you make other arrangements which may involve not going. You don't call the couple lots of unpleasant names and send a revenge gift, and you don't take the kids on the assumption that their names were just left off the invitation.

I bleed on and off all the time!! Bizarre!

I do wonder if it means my pill isn't working?


Just worked out I saved £13.26 on tampons :money:


I also saved £6.20 on hubbys shower gel which is normally £2.24 but was reduced to £1 Result!!


Just a shame I bought a cornish pasty AND a cheese and onion pasty for lunch *rolleyes*


Carla - what have you gone on to? I think my options are pretty limited whilst I am still BF.
