HA, who was that poster who wanted to wash her disposable pads? She got flamed here and on BOTB. Twiceenchanted or something?

Michelle_G

Uh, no thanks.

Not to different from cloth diapers.

SGC29

Meh, not for me but I don't really think much of it. People use cloth diapers, some use cloth pads. To each their own..

ConnieRob

At least they are pretty

I don't see the big deal here.  They can save you money and is just the same as cloth diapers plus these are actually a decent price.

I can see the gross factor for some people but really if you think about it...It wasn't that long ago that woman used stuff like this. Disposable pads were made commercially available around 1888 but were too expensive for most women and the fact they were made from wood pulp made them very uncomfortable ( ouch) Kotex didn't make pad commercially available until 1980's but gained popularity in the 1970's with a cotton pad that could be washed and reused..

OMG, okay, that was a lot of info but my medical anthropology teacher really went on a tangent about this stuff..I guess it stuck with me...LOL

Oh,btw..not for me though! I will buy and toss the mess and gross away. lol

Not unusual where I live. They sell these kinds of things in the grocery store right next to the disposable pads.

not my style, but i dont see anything wrong with it

I just love that they're called "Muffies". So awesome.

I would totally use these as a liner! I had no idea such things existed. I couldn't go without liners when I was pregnant and certainly not while ttc. I may have to re-visit these.

I think those are really cute! However, there is no way I would use them.

And that the hankies are called "Snaughties."

Katie829

Personally I don't see the big deal. I use a panty liner with a tampon just in case, or a panty liner during the time of month where I get more CM. I think they are really cute and would probably use them.

 I think a diva cup is more gross then this. No offense to diva cup users.

 

ETA: forget a word

I can't imagine they would stay that way for long.  If I had to use them it would be during around my O date (I get a lot of CM), but not for AF.

I've been using glad rags as backup pantyliners for years.  I think cloth diapers are way grosser, but if/when I ever have a baby, I'm planning on using those too.

It's just blood.   And IMHO it's less gross than a bloody steak (which you have to handle in order to cook).  At least I know that my blood is 'clean' -- meaning no diseases, and only bacteria my body is used to -- whereas who knows what that cow has been doing before it ended up on my plate.

All you have to with cloth liners is throw them in the washing machine on cold after a rinse or a soak in cold water and they come out looking like new.

Sidenote:  At a wedding the other weekend, the bride and groom hosted a game of "Gross/Not Gross" -- where someone says something over the loudspeaker and you go on one side of the dance floor if you think it's gross, and the other if you think it isn't gross.  It was amazing to see the diversity of opinions on the grossness of various topics!

Yeah- as a liner, this would be good. I guess I don't see the big deal.

I remember that girl. I believe she had a picture of her and her "boo" or whoever he was and he looked like a poor mans k-fed (which is sad, given we're talking about k-fed here). She made a lot of "spechul" posts.

What do you do when you have to change at work?

I would have a hard time bleeding on something that pretty, but they would come in handy for the gym. After baby snissing is not fun and neither is exercise pee-leakage. Those good ol' bladder muscles never work the same again.
