Shit Girls Say On Their Period

That time of the month. When the river’s running red. When Aunt Flo is in town… You know what I’m talking about, your period. From battling cramps to navigating mood swings, our period brings a whole new level of commentary. Here are the top things girls say on their period. 

 

Is it hot in here or is it just me?

It’s like being in a sauna despite the freezing temperatures outside. 

I need chocolate. Like, right now. 

It’s not just a want, it’s a necessity. Your body craves it, your mind demands it and your taste buds thank you for it. 

I hate everyone.

Blame it on the hormones, but suddenly everyone and everything seems utterly intolerable. 

I’m so bloated. 

Even though skinny jeans aren’t in anymore, there’s no way you’re fitting into them anyway. Hey, at least comfy shorts and oversized tees are in so you’re rocking the bloat. 

I just accidentally ate the whole pizza.

By accident or not, your appetite goes from zero to ravenous in seconds. No judgment here, we’ve totally done it too!

I’m sorry for what I said when I was on my period.

LOL the infamous apology that we’ve all said at least once a cycle. 

Am I dying?

Said at least once a cycle. No you’re not dying but pretty sure this is what it feels like!

Did I just bleed through?

Every girl’s worst nightmare! 

 

I just want to curl up into a ball and do nothing.

Being able to let go of all adult reponsibilites to do this is the greatest feeling. 

Do you have a spare tampon?

Said every girl during her period. They’re now in every pocket of every bag… Just in case! 

Are you sure I can’t get pregnant on my period?

But can you? Look it’s highly unlikely but it has happened!

I’m fine to eat this, I’m on my period. 

Instant satisfaction. All the regrets the next week though when the pants are a little too snug. 

I’m not going to the gym today.

Said at least a thousand times! In all seriousness though, it’s not a great time to go pushing PBs, great time for low intensity workouts, keep the body moving.

I should have just skipped my period this month. 

Said every girl who takes the pill.

Honestly, this is the worst possible time for my period. 

Why is it though that when you make all these great plans, your period arrives like hey girl, don’t let me miss out too! 

*Sneezes* Shit, did I just shoot my tampon out. 

The squeezing of the legs shut so there’s no waterfall of blood. Been there, done that. 

I’ll put a towel down in case. 

Sleeping with a towel on the sheets, just in case. We've all been there. Thanks to those heavy flow period undies, this is a thing of the past! 

Is this normal?

Yes girl. It’s normal.
