Have you ever been "gaulded"? NTTGPR
I didn't even know what this was and now I do. I usually don't wear tampons until the very end of my cycle or when I run. Well, I ran out of tampons and I?m spotting lightly so I decided to use a pad...big freggin mistake. Apparently, the heat from summer and the sweat and whatnot rubbed me freggin raw. I flipped because I didn't know what it was and called my mom. She came over and took one look and said "yep, that a gaulding" to that I said " what the hell is a gaulding"...after some explanation she basically said its a rubbing on skin or between skin folds and yep it hurts like hell. I can't wear any panties or shorts. Thank God for maxi dresses. She is suggesting that I use cornstarch in a sock and pat it on the "affected" area and that it will help along with diaper rash cream for the discomfort. UGGGGGG!!!!! I hate my life right now and I have no idea how to explain this to my DH..I can only imagine the what the look on his face will be when he get home and sees me legs in the air fan between my legs covered in cornstarch LOL!

Yep, wore a pad and ran...and no this has NEVER happened to me before. I guess the dryweave got damp from sweat and rubbed me raw...HORRIBLE!
I have always used Always, decided to get stayfree because I got them for free with some coupons...Now, I know why they were practicly giving them away. I will never again go away from my favorite brand!
Why wouldn't you call your mom? She changed my diapers and wiped my ass for years, Talked to me about sex and my first period...Geez...

This...I had to do a double take on that one.
Does she still wipe your ass for you?
Not even regular Always, but the Infinity kind. They come in a box instead of wrapped in plastic. Life changing.

Ahhh, no dry weave! I just googled the difference between regular always and the infinity...Got it, thank you SOOOOO much!
I hate those. They dry me out too much and I end up itching like crazy.
Welcome. For anyone who works out a lot and doesn't want to use tampons, these things are a must.
There's a big difference between my mom changing my diaper as an infant and telling me about my first period and inspecting my lady bits for chafing. Gross. I wouldn't even ask my husband to do that. I have hand mirrors and basic knowledge of what chafing looks like. No need to call my mom.

I had no idea they made stuff for this problem. The diaper rash cream did nothing..heading to the store right now! Thanks!
Oh wow... I didn't think anything could be worse than the OP but that definitely was...
I'm gonna give Too Many Tickers here the benefit of the doubt on the mom thing. I've dropped trou for my aunt more times than I can count, because she's really good at identifying skin issues. I won't even go into the number of times my husband has pointed to something on his ass and said, "Does this look like a pimple to you? Do I have ass cancer?"
It's just a cooch, not the Ark of the Covenant, you can gaze into it without bursting into flames.

Yikes! I've never had that happen before, nor have I even heard of it! I don't use tampons at all; only Always pads, both dry-weave and the new kind, and have no complaints. I grew up in a very hot climate also and never had an issue. I wonder if you have sensitive skin or an allergy to something in the pad or adhesive.
I've never been able to use tampons. I've tried every brand and tried inserting them a million different ways, but I can always feel them and have so much pain and discomfort that I gave up.
And I agree with the PP...I would never, in a million years, call up my mom to check out an issue with my lady parts! That would be my DH's department.

Sorry, I do love the tickers. Not that this matters but because I nearly lost my life in 06'. I like to count UP to things except the vacation ticker. Thanks for over looking them lol..
but that is funny! Ark of the Covenant LMAO!!!!
My DH would look but then he would say...."call your mom" besides, I have never had it happen and neither has he so we wouldn't have been able to figure it out. On the other stuff, I think your right. Maybe im allergic to the new "cheaper" pads I got or maybe my skin is getting more sensitive. IDK but the PP that suggested the cream..It is working and I already free much better
My stomach hurts from laughing until I cried...thanks for the laugh!

Its making me laugh too! I mean foreal on the floor, tears in the eyes! ohhh, bump how you make me giggle
bwhahahah! If they only knew what we talked about..LOL
You've set his expectations too high. No husband should be that confident that his wife isn't going to sell him out. Mine is resigned to the fact that on the M4M section of Detroit Craigslist, there are photos of his peen which were taken by me as he was getting out of the shower, accompanied by a solicitation for anonymous park public restroom sex.
That's what happens when you leave dirty dishes on the counter and we get ants, Bubba.
Dude! So wrong. I just threw up a little bit.
Ditto mel on the chafing gel. It does a great job where ever there is rubbing in the heat.
Absolutely priceless, especially the Ark of the Covenant! Thank you both for the much needed laugh.
