Period Care Essentials that changed my LIFE!

[@ThePresentTimeNow]

My advice for your period is to shave the night before or the moment you start to feel the cramps prior to your period, get your groceries in advance; load up on fruit, veggies and other essentials you need. Make sure your bathroom and home is clean. Also, start taking medicine as soon as you feel like your cycle is coming. If you can, try to walk outside. This helps with the flow to lessen it, and it helps with being active. I do hope this helps someone because I have a history of bad cramps and a heavy flow. Doing all of these things will help you be more comfortable and everything will be in place causing you to focus on healing and your cycle.

[@the_sirene]

Ohh my thank you so much! ❤Not a veggie fan but I'm definitely taking this advice because my cramps are that bad.

[@kellseyblack277]

Tip also you can meal prep so don’t have to cook. Love your tips @Welcometonow

[@oceaneo4603]

I can't prepare for my period before hand. N.E.V.E.R !! It feels like "they" are waiting for me to give up whatever I anticipate to hurt the H..ll out of me. I don't even count the day anymore, I litteraly go with the flow.

[@DopeEmpress]

I thought I was the only one that like a clean home😅 I also like clean hair and sheets❤

[@therealsandraweise]

For those that enjoy **MESS FREE**intercourse on their cycle... Disposable soft cups from Walgreens never leak even from rigorous activity or a large partner. If we're putting this out here, let's do it. 😅

[@PPWWSS]

I wish I could give this video a million thumbs up. KEEP HEARING GOD.🧡🧡🧡

[@RestoringKarma]

Walmart has the Mainstay washable waterproof bed pads for $10. I purchased two so that I can alternate each day and always have a clean one. I could purchase more but I’m going to wash all of my soiled items each day regardless because the first 2 to 3 days are very heavy. After the third day, it’s more manageable and I usually don’t have any issues with spills.

[@janettecalhoun2878]

I have a blanket that I fold in half for my side of the bed during my cycle its cozy and its a big space for me to sleep how I want without worrying about leaks at night. I typically have it together enough where I don't leak but its very freeing to just be able to rest during that time. Loved all your tips, u hit on alot of topics even if they didn't really pertain to you. ❤

[@pinkglow15]

Cups are a lifesaver if you insert them correctly....gamechanger! 😀

[@Rs-dr4fw]

I am so happy for this video! I just got my first heavy period in 3 years after struggling with PCOS.

[@Ryldaughter31]

That was very informative, and helpful 👍🏼🙌🏼 B6 helps with the nervous system, and lightens periods also❤️

[@NickeshaRodgers]

I recommend drinking apple cider vinegar during your period with alot of water if you randomly have an odour. It always works for me.

[@Ohvickyoh]

I need some help for the week before when I'm a raving lunatic 😅😅😅 Great video ❤

[@Padel78]

Great video 🤩 what helps me with PMS and hormones before and during my period, is Maca powder. It helps me regulate them. 😮‍💨

Love listening to your advice sis...... fun and educational all in one❤️

[@jessica1733]

track your period, it you have cramps ,take pain medication a couple days before you start your period and stay on top of it don't skip. If otc doesn't work, talk to your doctor. Take hot baths , use a heating pad or those patches. Also, when I used to have horrible cramps, being in water ..the pool or beach alleviated the cramps ...being on the pill I think helps with cramps

[@fprice9859]

Excellent advice and so needed for so many young ladies! I’m going to have my granddaughters follow you. I just love your personality! 😊 The information and advice you give is always great.

[@teresateresa6342]

You are really making a difference for young women who needs to learn these things. Keep up the great work👏🏽I love your sense of humor lol

[@christalcotton30]

Oh another idea for those who have heavy flow like myself is to get you a mattress protector and dark sheets for that time

[@karenmiller2785]

You are so hilarious i love ur videos, I can only imagine how much fun it would be to go out with you ❤

What outfits do you wear during period week??? Video that.

I also love the always pure cotton with flex foam and it's organic 👍

[@grannyronna]

Great video! Gets rid of shame andoffers practical advice. One add from me. If you are buying tampons, remember they aren't required to list ingredients and you could be eating clean but putting lots of chemicals in your body from the Southern exposure. Those tissues absorb a lot, quickly, so make sure what that you know what you are...consuming :)

[@ThePresentTimeNow]

I unfortunately cannot lay a towel down on the bed. It feels very odd to me. What I like to do is set my alarm clock to change my pad so there wont be any chance of a leak. I feel so much better and cleaner doing it. Just an alternative for those who need it.

[@elenahaibel3672]

And I love your page it’s very informative. Thank you for doing what you doing. Be blessed and keep God first.

[@nikkiturbeville6615]

Love this video … i invested in period panties as well mine are from Victoria secret and i wear mine as back up with my tampon. They are a game changer never have i leaked since i bought them. VS sells them in a 3 or 5 pack as well . Also yay for the cotton tampons and pads. They actually help with cramps. The other brands have chemical and cause worse cramping!

[@creativelife9871]

Wait…VS was period panties? 💃🏾💃🏾 Let me go spend some money! I just bought a pair to try from Target. They were interesting and I would like to get another pair or three.

[@nikkiturbeville6615]

[@daturner88]

I use period panties but as a backup, I also wear tampons with them. This works for extremely heavy periods. For cramps I start taking meds before and keep the meds at regular intervals to keep them under control. And Yes to Boric Acid pills!

[@clairescoolcrafts5886]

Not that I disagree with the deodorant hack. But if you sweat really bad like me don’t use that deodorant on your underarms. It lasts 75 seconds and does not help. But that’s just me. And I sweat through every single deodorant I’ve ever worn.

[@meandmynails1442]

To help with leaks at night, just fold some toilet paper and place between your but cheeks, seriously, it works. Disposable bed pads! Blood can leak through a towel. Also try Good Clean Love brand feminine wash, it's amazing! I wish I had all of yr tips when I was younger, it would have made things so much easier!

[@dajdrinlaskye9895]

Omg I just went off mine❤

[@ladyschatze9159]

Thank you! I buy Black cotton underwear for periods . For your bed get the waterproof fits, then black sheets or black towels. If you have serious smells and issues with your V seek a doctor. Pls soak the V in the tub. Don't put deodorant down under. Change your underwear liners and use water wipes.

[@AlwaysaLady365]

Sounds like this is only the week of period only ?

[@c.robinsonmusicpage]

Water wipes are great!

[@Coreyj06]

Period panties are a must for me when I sleep on my period. They never leak not even on my heaviest night. I use this brand called Bambody I thinkin is the name they are black, got them on Amazon. I have two other brands of panties can’t remember the names but I got them on Amazon too. I like the wear them when I’m expecting my period to come so I won’t mess up my nice off period panties and on the last day of my period, cause I barely bleed that day so it don’t feel like my coochie sittin in a pool of blood.

[@moca1992]

So, here's what I do know as an OG in the game. What you eat has a lot to do with period flow. As a person with heavy flow, for some time now, when I eat veggies and fruit, and take supplements that are being depleted during this time. I find that cycles are less heavy. Pay attention, to what you eat two to three weeks prior to your cycle. Heavy on the veggies and fruit gives a lighter flow with fewer cramps.

[@oceaneo4603]

"Two or three before prior" ? 😱 Guuuurrrrl, better to do that all the time at this point.

When you bleed on your mattress or get blood in your panties put peroxide on the spots let it set then scrub, wash, let dry. 😊

[@dnikki94]

Instead of laying a towel down you can just use a mattress cover. They are extremely cheap, and easy to find.

[@kimkim-nn9xq]

Hi I love this video, I would love any advice on outfits or like basic items that are essential to feel confident and comfortable

[@saylenadominguez2924]

Haven't had my menstrual in 6 years thanks to Depo Provera birth control. Some women, stop there periods while others have irregular periods. I'm thankful that I no longer get periods every month it was hell. As always Nicole I love watching your content you always put a smile on my face 😊 good luck with the period girl. Can you do videos that include your boo.

[@BlackCatholicGirl]

That’s bad dear , period are meant to purify women

[@alexisgiselle]

Isn’t it bad if you never have a period?

[@millie_and_Ant]

But your period cleanses your insides I thought? So isn’t having it sorta beneficial?

[@jayasharma-z3e]

thats not good

[@4220E]

I know quite a few women that was or the shot and they gained alot of weight....if you ask me I don't think it's a good for our bodies because basically all that fluid is backup in you and I'll also be scared if I didn't see a period every month because I'll think I'm pregnant

[@Kueenzee]

Instead of the towel you should try reusable waterproof bed pads they are sold in many sizes

Wet helpful. And I would like to see more weekly vlogs 😊

[@nikkinic27]

My doctor recommended boric acid for ph balance, they are great and really work

Shoot my Obgyn said soap everyday even when you're not on your period is the best bc of that bacteria that builds up, I don't know where people getting this only water stuff from. 🤷🏾‍♀️🤣And I'm so happy always came out with organic cotton products. 🥰

Period underwear. Life-Changing.

[@oceaneo4603]

I took omega 3 supplement, it helped me be more civilized. Unfortunaly, they can't be taken all the time. Some food contain a lot of it, like oils. I'm very picky on the brands I use and store mine in the fridge. Breathing exercices, just like meditation help me to stay calm as well. What bother me the most, is the pain, not the smell. Now I use toilet paper, I could through the used ones right into the toilet and flush it. It's cleaner, cheaper, and won't produce that awfull smell old used pads normaly do. Gotta to admit, I also use a panty pad, 'cause no matter how thick I made the toilet paper one, a little bit of blood always come through. It was a work in progress, but for only circle. I won't come back to my old ways. PS: Over the years, I used to put thick regular cotton, on top of my period pad. It worked like a charm to prevent licking, but it smell !

Primrose oil supplements are great too 👍🏽

[@mellokitty3807]

That happens to me and what I do to not that from happening is wear an organic or 100% cotton panty liner or a pad for light days so it doesn’t irritate my skin, but it catches the urine from the tampon string that may be left behind after wiping.

I don’t think lume is all natural- I haven’t worn deodorant in years so I’m starting a new job and my daughter bought it so “I won’t be the new musty lady!!!😂😂😂” so I tried the lume once and I shower twice a day that stuff lasted about 5 days I stopped using it I got scared/ even after I worked out I had no sweat or odor 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@oceaneo4603]

I find on KZbin (Doctorly, Dr dray), tips from board certified dermatologist to product to use as deodorant. I didn't try any but it seems pretty smart. I don't believe in deodorant neither. I also believe sweat is totally normal and healthy. As for the smell, unplaisant, but also normal to a certain degree. I spray deodorant on my clothes, and cool down or clean my under arms when necessary. When used to live in Martinique, when the sun is litteraly assaulting you. I would wore white loose light fabric tanks open in the back. And I would have an extra top in my bag, just in case. Congrats on your new job. 🎉🎉🎉
