Sweaty Pits!!

Im going on my first night out since DS and my first night out with the girls for about a year!

Ive got a tres lush outfit to wear and have shed enough weight to feel half way attractive in it!

One problem - since DS I seem to errrr sweat more than I used to!! I have taken to wearing black as much as possible but tonight Im wearing a pink top - a top that will show sweat up soooooo badly and I dread to think of that happening!

Is there any wonder product I can apply before I go out to make sure I dont get any stains - normal deodorant doesnt seem to do the trick

God I feel a minger asking this! LOL

I also have this problems since ds was born - 20 mths ago - very embarassing - esp when I am at work..... :-[ Mitchim's deodrant is the best I find but I also find changing the deodrant I use every few days helps - that is - I have two on the go - mitchums roll-on and mitchums cool stick.

hope this helps!

My dp has this problem too - he sweats loads and loads and finds it very embarrassing. He eventually went to the GP who prescribed a special deodorant called Anhydrol Forte. It works a treat although you can't just put it on before you go out, so may be more a long term solution.

whoops i should read the thread properly - repeating what has just been said
need to pay better attention

I bought the mitchum deodorant as alot of the others werent quick fixes so no good for me.

Anyway, I was fine - no embarassing marks, at least none I was aware of while compus mentus - later on in the night I was oblivious to most things included ones sweaty pits!

as for the other thing - I once read that 'exclusive breastfeeding' meant evry 2 hours including during the night!!!!!
That is apparently the only time that you can rely on it as a contraceptive
can't remember where i read it tho. sorry
