Nothing will stop me in 2011 - Neither Rain, nor snow, nor unexpected periods!!

This posting is kind of a new year’s resolution – empowering, yet revealing and hopefully helpful.  As we reflect in 2010, were there times that an unexpected something stopped scheduled plans and activities.  Certainly for some who were planning travel home for the holidays the weather did.  Flights were canceled, roads were snow covered and dangerous winds were blowing like there wasn’t going to be a tomorrow.  Yet, we got through it, though for some who missed out on family gatherings and get-together with friends, maybe not in a very pleasant way.  

Now, how does that bring me to period talk - perhaps a bit around the block, but stay with me as I get to the topic.  Basically what I want to share is that as you enter the New Year, there are some aspects of our life that are more complex than others to manage.  The more out of our control that hindrance may be, the more complex it is to deal with usually.   (Now to periods)  There may be a period that comes early or a bit later than expected, but that shouldn’t stop or change your life’s plans.  Absolutely not in 2011!

There was a question asked on beinggirl.com about what to do if you have an unexpected accident.  While beinggirl.com is for teens, the answer was relevant no matter what your age.  The link is below, but I will summarize:  Be prepared!  Carry product in your handbag, whether you are expecting a period or not, and pay attention to your body.   Also, if you decide to visit beinggirl.com, you might want to explore the site and the links to menstrual product information, coupons and free product offers. 

For some women, leakage is one of those really embarrassing worst things.  But what is the worst that can happen if you have an unexpected period. Does anyone have any stories about how they managed an unexpected period and got on with it despite some possibly embarrassing circumstances?  Your stories could help others – or at the very least, make us laugh – with you!
