I will be there for 2 months maybe 3 I will be going by car.

#1 How many packages of pads should I bring?

#2 When should I start packing? I CANNOT PACK AT THE LAST MINUTE!

#3 Fold or roll clothes? I have a big suitcase and my books are going in a separate bag and shoes are going in a separate bag and makeup, face wash, deodorant, lotion and ect. will be in a separate bag.

#4 How do I make sure I don't forget anything?

#5 any tips on how to make the best of my trip?


Additional:

I am going to be staying with my grandparents, as far as I know my grandma doesn't know I have a period and my grandpa would make fun of me because he still makes fun of me for eating a dog treat when I was 7 years old! And in my defense they looked like oreos, at the time I could just barley see over the counter and I didn't read the package. But anyway that is not the point. Help with anything extra would be great!

#1 How many packages of pads should I bring? I can't tell you, lots of factors.

#2 When should I start packing? I CANNOT PACK AT THE LAST MINUTE! 2-3 days before you leave, maybe more or less

#3 Fold or roll clothes? I have a big suitcase and my books are going in a separate bag and shoes are going in a separate bag and makeup, face wash, deodorant, lotion and ect. will be in a separate bag.
Fold, more room :)

#4 How do I make sure I don't forget anything?
Write down what you need

Nope >.>

It really depends how long your period is and how many you go through in a day, I'd bring two.

Start pack now, pack the clothes you want to bring and arnt going wear in the next couple days, and then get everything else in baggys, and when you need it, get it out of the bag, so itll be easier to get your bag togeather on the last day.

Roll dresses, and jeans, and tanks fold shorts, shirts, and tees. Roll undies, fold bras.

Make a list!

=] good luck.

1 er I don't know. I would say like a pack, unless you got a really heavy flow, and it depends on how long it lasts for. Plus, it'd only be like two times right?

#2 like 3/4days before?

#3 Roll roll roll your clothes...

#4 Plan plan plan ahead! Keep checking you've got everything you've wrote on your checklist (which you can make yourself...)

#5 Don't let stuff get you down. Have fun fun funn in the possible sun sun sun!

1, I think it depends on how light or heavy you come onn and how many days for.... Bring about 5 packets (it sounds much but you never know lol... it is quite a lot actually but at least you know you wont run out)

2. Start packing in like 3 days.

3. Fold and roll some and put them at the sides

4. Write a list, starting from today so you have everything on there by the time you leave.

5. Just have fun and forget about everyone back home!!

Have a great time!

1 How many packages of pads should I bring?
I suggest 3, if you run out (which is EXTREMELY unlikely), you can ask your grandma to go run out and buy you some pads, without your grandpa knowing. I highly doubt you will run out of pads though!

#2 When should I start packing?
When it's getting close - I'd say about a week before you go. That way you still have your clothes to wear for before you leave.

#3 Fold or roll clothes?
Fold - a little extra effort won't hurt! (:

#4 How do I make sure I don't forget anything?
Make a list now, and keep editing it as you think of things, and just cross out everything as your packing.

#5 any tips on how to make the best of my trip?
Just have fun - and don't worry about anything!

1 how many do u use on a regular basis? multiply that by two and bring like 10 extra

#2/4 starting now, make a list if what u wanna bring, over the next week or so jot down everything u think of. 4 days before leaving go to the store and buy what u don't have. start packing the next day (this includes laundry, shopping, last minute things etc..)

#3 how many bags do u need?!?! ur gonna need to do laundry.... but fold ur clothes..... rolling will just cause wrinkles.

#5don't forget to bring a nice out fit or two, pajamas, bathing suit and apparel for any realistic situation. Bring !ATLEAST! $20 so u have some pockets money. if they're church people bring money for the donation plate in case there is one. (this will make you look good)
as soon as u get there unpack and organize ur belongings. (grandmas seem to like that)

hope i helped!

bring at least two or three. ALWAYS bring more than you need.

start packing 4 days before you go. try to pack everything you need on the first day, and then that gives you 3 whole days to remember and get or find anything you may have forgotten.

i roll clothes. its really all up to you, but i tend to fit more in my tiny suitcase when i roll them

like i said, pack ahead of time. make a checklist now, get the things you dont have. give yourself a few days to finish making out your checklist, there is always a few things you forget

make sure that you have everything you need, prepare for the unexpected. bring loads of underwear! loads of socks! thats always the most important to me, always pack more underwear than youll need. and most importantly, have fun! :D

Ok....here it goes:

1. as many as you can pack (within reason lol). depending on how heavy your period is, probably 2-4 big packs? might be a good time to consider tampons if you will be swimming.....

2. start packing within 5 days of leaving

3. i always fold my clothes, but that's just me

4. start making a list of the stuff you will need to pack now (today!!). when you randomly think of something else you need, add it to your list. check everything twice before you leave! if you forget something you can't live without, just remember some spare money and you can get it there.

5. just keep a positive attitude no matter what your situation is or where you are! even if you feel like crap, having a good attitude will make things 100% better!

haha, as for the grandparents, they are all like that! they just love to see you and can't help but remember how little and cute you once were (not saying you aren't cute now!). have an amazing trip! remember to take pictures and a journal to write your memories down!!! have fun!

1. well, it really depends on how many come in the packs you buy, if you change often while you have it, etc. estimate how many you use each time you're on it and then get how many packs you need.
2. you can start packing now if you want to, so you'll be prepared and won't have to rush
3. um fold them, they'll take up more room if they are rolled.
4. make a list of everything you need to pack, when you pack something check it off the list.
5. have fun! =D


ahaha! you're additional details gave me a good laugh. :)
Good luck on you're trip!
