THE GREAT PERIOD CHALLENGE
Well come on, if that Crunchy Chicken blog can do it, so can we!
My challenge is to try something different, and do a post on it. Be brave. Whoever does... I'll buy a fair trade organic chocolate bar! There it is- that's my challenge to you. (Ohmygosh, I can't believe I'm saying this to my friends- only on a blog!)
We've talked about the Diva Cup, and Seventh Generation products. Today I picked up some Natracare natural panty liners. They don't have individual wrapings like the Seventh Generation ones did.
Alrightie, so on that note...
I'm going to be on vacation for the next week. Post away while I'm gone. Look forward to chatting when I get back.
For last month, I bought the 7th Generation tampons. They are simliar to OB's. So far, so good. I am willing to try the DivaCup... just need to get one.
ReplyDeleteWhen I ordered my cloth diapers (I switched to washing my own and quit Tidee Didee), the site also sold the Diva cup. So I snagged one since I was already paying for the shipping. Its here and waiting till next month. I have to admit it looks a little intimidating! But all I hear are raves about it so I'm giving it a go. It comes with a little storage pouch (useful)and also a lapel pin LOL. I can't imagine wearing it on a shirt in public...
ReplyDeleteCome on, be Diva proud!! :-)
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't think I'd wear it either. Okay, now I am more pepped to get one, and maybe try the washable pads as I am sick of the tape getting stuck to me at night. Youch!
I almost grabbed one at Oliver's the other day, but I decided to wait until next month. They aren't as intimidating as I imagined :)
ReplyDeleteI did end up stocking up on Natracare products. The only things I used were the pads for "regular" days, and in my opinion they are more for light days... These were individually wrapped but in paper rather than plastic.
Side note: Oliver's has much better prices than Pacific for these products! I don't know about Trader Joe's or Whole Foods though.
I think I am going to try the washable pads or pantyliners too. Since you can throw 'em in with cloth diapers, and you use the same wash routine I feel like I should at least give it a try. I like the way the lunapads look. Kinda cute!
ReplyDeleteI love how open minded you guys are. I totally expected some, "you go, Jennifer" type posts. Looks like I need to stock up on chocolate bars!
