    Mine would go willingly and get them for me, why should he have shame he is in a committed relationship and his wife needs something?

  • He's gone and bought them for me then come home and bragged about how many women hit on him during the experience.

    Apparently men who buy tampons are a hot commodity.

  • He would definitely go to the store for me, heck we went together after we left the ER and had to get pads.  I am never out when I need them though...I see to it that I am never running too low!, and we always do our grocery shopping together.

    This exactly-he'd go but who knows what he'd come home with, so its easier just to be sure I'm always stocked up!

  • He did willingly go after we left the ER, I was a mess and in no shape to go in... but I'll admit I won't ask him again unless its dire. I'm fussy about my products and yeah... he'd never grab the right one. But in a pinch of course!

  • I don't know because he has never needed to. I always thought it was weird that women need their SOs to get that stuff for them. I always buy it for myself.

  • Mine would willingly go, but this is a development over the last year. 

    I caught him cutting coupons for HPT's the other day.  So sweet.

    LOL this!  And he would call me three times and stil get the wrong stuff. 

    This. DH got me pads after my D&C and called me twice from the store with questions. Since I hadn't worn pads in years, I didn't have great answers to his questions, either.

    I don't know if he'd buy me HPTs though.

    Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
  • He would go and not be phased a bit.

    We had a discussion about this while we were dating. I was sick and had run out of tissues and he said that he would go for me and I didn't want him to be bothered. His response was if you don't let me I'm going to get them and bringing tampons too. Sure enough, he showed up at my house with a box to tissues, a box of tampons, and a package of giant pads just for good measure.

    Since then I have only had to ask him to go once and it was because I had been traveling and didn't get to go to the store before going to work that day and AF showed up early. I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up getting something for himself that day too.

    I should tell my hubby this cause he'll hesitate at first then get it!  Maybe it'll stroke his ego.

    Because of the great "Snow"vember of 2015, my medicated cycle was cancelled.  However, we were blessed with our little rainbow baby due on 8/14/15!  Baby J had other plans and decided to make his grand ole entrance on 7/4/2015!

    Surprise!  Our little girl entered this world on 12/8/2016 after her eviction notice was long past due.  Our little turkey baby turned into a snow baby!

    This made me smile!

    I've never asked DH to get me any feminine products because I make sure to be stocked at all times. I'm sure if I was in a bind and really needed it, he would go to the store but he wouldn't be very happy.

  • Pads and tampons he would have no problem. Hpts and okps would be hRs because I don't know if I would trust him to get what I wanted. He isn't into all of that so he's not very aware if what I would need.

    This.  My poor DH actually bought me the really wrong thing after my loss.  The pads were way to big....lol.  Bigger doesn't mean better when they are too big to fit into your granny panties and wear under sweats or PJ pants. Indifferent

  • I chose hesitantly only because he would be concerned he would come home with the wrong stuff. He is a self admitted horrible shopper. There are too many options and he may just come home with one of each. I always make sure I have enough or just go on my own to get them. I am pretty picky anyway!

    This.  I'm a planner, so I'm never out of tampons.  But, when we had our loss, I was caught off guard.  So I called my Mom and asked if she could pick up some pads for me (the hospital gave us some to take home) and a head of cabbage for my leaky boobs.  And DH would totally go and get them if I asked - but as pp said - there are just some many different styles of stuff he's pry get the wrong thing :)

    Whoa, whoa...a head of cabbage? Please explain!

  • I voted no. But when I had my surgery (and couldn't drive) he got me pads. But I'm sure he wouldn't have done it otherwise.

    Ditto!  He always wonders why I'm afraid to run into anyone I know while buying pads or tampons.  He would proudly walk around the store with them!

    I don't think my DH has ever actually bought them for me, but he has offered.  He does a lot of the grocery shopping, so he asks me if I need anything while he's at the store.

  • Threre is no shame in his game.  He actually gets them more then I do!  LOL  Is that weird?  And he always knows what kind to get.  Love him!
