The end of my first AF with mama cloth and...  

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I went to a restaurant today to pee and my pad fell in the toilet! ACK! Luckily it was a single-person bathroom so I was able to easily fish it out and wash it out in the sink (lots of hot water and soap.) But yuck!

Other than that, it went pretty well. Particularly because I only had one Glad Rags pad (one cover and 2 inserts). I meant to order a bunch from TLC but I didn't have enough money so I figured I'd try out the Glad Rags one I'd bought. I have a pretty light flow so I just washed them each day by hand and let them dry. So if I could do it with that much washing, I'm sure I can do it easily with more pads. I definitely need ones with wings, though, because it almost fell out quite a few other times at home.

Oh no! That's why I generally stick with all-in-ones or snap-ons, lol. Occassionally I bulk up at night with extras that aren't attached and I've had that happen, luckily only at home. Definitely better than disposables though!

Ewwwwwwww! That must have been super yuck. All the cloth pads I have snap around the crotch of your panties with wings that way I never have to go fishing in a toilet for a pad.

When I was in the hospital after having my first son I had on one of those monster disposible pads that the hospital gives you. I went to go pee with the nurses help . . . I pulled down my undies and the pad flopped into the toilet. Boy, I felt bad when the nurse dawned rubber gloves to go in after it.
