A visit from Tom, your Aunty Flo or however you refer to that time of the month, you had best be prepared for it. PMS is a very real thing. We all suffer, but in order to make things as easy as possible for you, we’ve come up with a handy checklist of period must-haves.
________________________________
A Hot Water Bottle
If you haven’t owned one since you stayed over at your granny’s house aged eight, you’re missing out. This simple invention is the bee’s knees when it comes to tackling cramps, and when you’re that sensitive and emotional… it’s nice to have a warm hug.
Essential Supplies
This should go without saying, but it’s good to remember to stock up in advance – no one wants to have to make that trip to the shops for the necessary items. Always Infinity pads boast a new-to-Ireland material called Infinicel, a material which can absorb ten times its own weight in liquid and twice as much as you may need. It’s also a flexible pad which moulds to your body which means you will hardly feel it and won’t have to worry about it when you’re on the go. So if you’re up to getting out and about, at least you’re properly prepared.
A Best Friend
An essential part of life at any time of the month, one would wager, but when it comes to period pains your bestie understands you so much. You need someone to let your mood swings fly and pass you tissues and chocolate where appropriate. There is no judgement here.
Chocolate
We don’t care if you’re on a diet, this is an emergency situation. Listen to your body. Indulge and enjoy, you deserve this.
Inspirational Movies
If you’re constantly on the verge of tears, you need to set those tears loose. Curl up on the couch with the aforementioned chocolate and hot water bottle, and escape to a world of inspirational films, which will completely justify your wet face. Cry and cry again.
A Sense of Humour
It’s here, soon it will be gone, soon it will come again. We’re not about to burst into a rousing rendition of The Circle of Life here, but remember time heals all wounds and/or PMS symptoms. Stay strong sister. Stay strong.
