Chair period stain at work...

Help, I am freaking out. First day of period, usually it's quite light but I used a night pad as all I had, thought all was fine, I was super busy in work, at my desk all morning and now I pop home for lunch to find blood has leaked right through my trousers, pad is totally soaked. I'm freaking out that the light grey chair I sit on in the office has blood stains on it now. I work with nearly all men so it's obviously me. What can I do?? Or say if there's blood stains on the chair... Has this happened to anyone before? I'm so embarrassed.

Can you discreetly clean the chair? Or spill coffee on it & then clean it?

For next time I recommend period pants combined with your normal sanitary items. It’s a game changer and I never leak now.

The spilt coffee tip is great. I’m stealing it if ever happens to me

Don't forget to clean blood with cold water or you will set the stain. I would give it a clean at the end of the day with quite a bit of water and let it dry overnight. Bring a hand towel tomorrow in case it hasn't quite dried.
