Bees I am so upset! My period came late due to stress which means my heavy day is today, my wedding day! It was suppose to come a week ago. I have very heavy periods and can through a super plus tampon in 2.5 hours. I am stressed because my dress is a mermaid and I have no idea how I’m going to pull off changing my tampon on my own:( I don’t want to use a cup because I have no experience with it. Anyone have tips?

OK I think youre freaking out a little cos its your wedding day … breathe
Youve dealt with this flow all your life and I am sure you will be able to manage it. Make sure you wear the tampon and a panty liner just in case. Bring those special baby wipes for down there so you always feel fresh and just take lots of toilet breaks with your bridal party. Tell you Maid/Matron of Honor to look out for it and to make sure to usher you into a toilet at practical times when she sees one. Make sure you have ibprofen for any cramps and just try not to worry about it too much and relax.
Have an amazing wedding day

@Mint2Bee: oh no that sucks! Wear a towel too and ask a close friend to take the dress off you so you can change. You have my sympathy.

Wear a full panty ( no thongs) wear a overnight maxi pad and a super tampon.
Maxi pads that are great are always ultra thin overnight. They are not noticeable at all. It will prevent any accidents If your tampon leaks. Change on a schedule ( every 2 hrs).
