Is it normal to get stuck at home due to having no feminine products?

HELP! I am stuck at home because I have no pads or tampons! I'm going to have to wait until my period stops to be able to leave the house again!

I have no one nearby that I can ask to help me out of this situation.

This is the first time that this has happened to me in my life and boy does this suck!

Has this ever happened to anyone else?? IIN?

    Have Amazon deliver some.

    Ask your female neighbour for help.

    Ask a friend to bring some over.

    Ask a male neighbour.

    Anything has to be better than sitting at home and waiting it out.

    Just fold up some toilet paper, put it in your knickers and dash to the shops.

    :-S How is this not obvious?

    That must be very annoying. You should always have two months stock, that's what I doo because sometimes I forget to buy. I do this for my contraceptives too.

    When you have to walk around for food or whatever, put a rag in your underwear.

    Ummm can't you call someone to come over and bring you a tampon or pad? POr go knock on the neighbour's door and ask them? Or just put an old wash cloth between your legs and get to a drug store to buy them.

      Yup, cover the wash cloth with some plastic wrap or aluminum foil.

        No you cant do that you need it to be absorbed into the cloth covering it in plastic will just make it go all over the place.

        Everyone has old wash cloths that they dont use anymore. She can just throw it out afterwards.

          Right. The blood is absorbed into the cloth. The outer plastic wrap is a barrier that prevents the blood in the cloth from leaking to your outer clothes.

    Just put on a pair of jeans and let them get wet - it's no big deal!!
    You could put a jeans skirt over the jeans if you're so worried about it being seen, but really, who would notice, and who cares if they do? It's a natural thing!
