Bring tampons or pads. That’s all you can do.
uhm..
thats tricky.

jeez idk actually
bring pads and tampons
Very good tampons and pads!
is this your first first time getting your period?
message me and i can help you.
tampons of pad’s just make sure that there is a proper palce for u to go to the bathroom
Not a very qood idea…maybe take a rain check if you can?!
If you are used to your period now, try tampons.
If you aren’t, use pads.
Use them discreetly and try not to think about it.
Good luck
well thats really tough because you are going to be going to the bathroom a lot to change your pad or tampon. but it would be even harder if they didnt have a bathroom well just tell your dad that you are on your period and ask him if you can do it when you are not on your period or ask him if he doesn’t mind having you go to the bathroom every 2 hours to change your pad or tampon.
Bring your pads and/or tampons and a package of baby wipes. Bring a stash of plastic grocery bags so you can wrap up your things after they’re used. Dispose of the bags whenever you have an opportunity. Bring extra underwear too.
It’s up to you whether you tell your Dad that you have your period. It shouldn’t matter, but it might prevent him from “investigating” the little bags you’re hiding.
Have fun camping and don’t let your period get in the way of fun.
I would definitely vote for tampons, since you might not have chances at regular bathrooms and cleansing. Also, feminine hygiene wipes or cottonelle fresh wipes, something like that. Don’t forget the pamprin if you get bad cramps or bloating! Have fun!
Oh gosh. I started my period one day before I went on this big camping trip with my friends and their parents. I talked to one of my closest friends and she walked with me everyday to the bathroom (like 30 minute walk ) so I could clean myself up. Bring wet wipes, plastic bags, and double up your pads if you use them. Tricky stuff. Also bring a towel to sleep on so that it doesn’t get your sleeping bag dirty. Talk to your dad and tell him. He’ll understand.
You pack plenty of pads or tampons, and change them often.
Experienced camper Alyssa Fielder offers these tips to remember when camping during your time of the month.
Store your feminine protection products in a waterproof plastic bag.
Bring extra zip-lock bags to store your used products.
Pack extra underwear if you have room.
Bring a supply of wet naps for cleansing purposes.
Bring a bottle of freshwater for rinsing purposes.
if you just started your period than you should only use pads but… if your going swimming than your going to need tampons!!!!
Bring pads and make sure that there will be a comfort room there.
