Question:
Menstrual stains, on pjs and bed sheets!?
okay, so yesterday I started my period and it was really heavy compared to my other periods on the first day. anyways, i went to sleep with a 'moderate to heavy' pad, (im not ready to use tampons yet please dont suggest me trying them) and i woke up the next morning with blood all on the back of my pj shorts, and splotches of blood on my sheets from different positions i was sleeping in. My mom isnt coming home for another four hours, but im really scared/embarrassed to tell her. I dont really want to wash out the blood myself though. what do i do?!
Answers:
Wet the spots and add stain remover or detergent and let them soak, then wash them in the washer. It's not that bad! The longer you leave it, the harder they will be to clean. Don't be embarassed, it happens to everyone! Maybe get some pads that are longer or for heavier days, with wings. Talk to your mom about it, she'll understand- I'm sure it's happened to her too. Also, next time, maybe put an old blanket or sheet on top of your good ones on your heavy days.
