A bloody affair
Nine hours at work.
One diva cup.
30 ml or 1 ounce.
Two fleece liners and a fleece pad.
One pair of panties.
---
Can I just say I bleed A LOT in the beginning? Goddamn.
I filled my diva cup to the brim, it started overflowing and (seriously) went through two layers of liners and a pad right to (or through?) my undies. SO SAD. That's...a lot of blood.
In the beginning, I pretty much always leak no matter what, whether it's by filling the cup in a matter of hours, or my discharge is super extra mucus-y and somehow slips past the cup -- thus my use of cloth pads (which I love!). Later in my cycle (maybe three days in), I no longer have leakage issues and feel like a normal menstruating female who can function in society.
I know my talks of menstruating are absolutely riveting.
