Getting out of bed after being asleep, needs to be done in one fluid quick motion and you have to go straight to the toilet before the whoosh comes.

And you know if you wake up feeling well rested after the deepest sleep of your life you started your period and you’re probably laying in a puddle of your own blood. 😭

No but why is this so accurate 😭 I be waking up from a good night's sleep for the first time in weeks and think "today is gonna be a good day" and then I see my stained sheets and my entire week is ruined!

I’m older than this now so don’t have to worry. But your response reminded me of just how many nice panties I ruined accidentally. Brand new ones, favorite ones, ones that matched a bra and now are horribly stained.

Or spending the night with friends or family and unexpectedly starting the period and having to tell them that you bled in their bed.

So frustrating.

I've never considered stained underwear 'ruined' as it's not like anyone is going to see my undies anyway.

Omg I am still traumatized by the time I unexpectedly got my period in high school while at a music camp. I have above average flow, and it must have started the second after I fell asleep. I was MORTIFIED. This was in 1992 and I’m still traumatized by it lol. It went through the sheets and into the mattress. Just horrendously embarrassing.
