Why post about it? Me personally I'd just go and get more towels rather than wear a babys nappy but whatever 🤷

CarryOnNurse20 · 17/08/2021 19:57

Have you seen the letdown?! Very Audrey. If you haven’t watch it (Netflix)!

PumpkinKlNG · 17/08/2021 19:57

Tissue?

hedgehogger1 · 17/08/2021 19:59

Get reusables. Never run out again

HumunaHey · 17/08/2021 20:03

I'm tryto imagine how you wore it. Cut the sides of?

cantbeforeal · 17/08/2021 20:04

I've done this before Blush

HappyMeal564 · 17/08/2021 20:42

Way to adapt and overcome 😁🤣

I also recommend cloth pads, you will never need to worry about this again. I can't imagine what you are doing is comfortable or practical..

Poppins2016 · 17/08/2021 20:51

I did that once after my period came out of the blue when I was at a restaurant for lunch (thankfully had baby DS + changing bag with me). Felt a little bulky but very effective! Grin

When I used an "emergency nappy" I just used it like a huge sanitary pad and let my knickers keep it in place!
Justgettingbye · 17/08/2021 20:56

Eek 😬

SunShinesBrightly · 17/08/2021 20:57

A face flannel, a clean tea towel folded, another pair of cotton knickers folded, a cotton sock (yes folded)... anything will do tbh.

Goodebe · 17/08/2021 21:04

Often do for bed on the first two nights ....

RainbowMum11 · 17/08/2021 21:33

I did the exact opposite when I was out with my DD and ran out of nappies!!!

xyzandabc · 17/08/2021 21:42

Yep, done that. 1st period 9 months after dd birth. New years eve in the arse end of nowhere in the scottish highlands.

Hmm

I really don’t think this warranted a thread.
