I’m on day 2 of my first period and thought it was a great idea to wear grey sweatshorts

Oh no, girl, I hear you. Wearing light-colored bottoms on your period, especially the first few days, is literally a recipe for disaster. It's like a period rule you learn the hard way!

It's super common to have a heavier flow during the first couple of days, and sometimes it can surprise you, even when you think you're covered. Grey sweatshorts are like, the least forgiving fabric ever for period leaks, because any little spot just screams for attention. It's totally okay though, stains happen to everyone, even when you're super careful.

Next time you're on your period, especially if it's a heavy day, try to stick to darker colors like black, dark blue, or dark grey pants. Period underwear can also be a total lifesaver for those days when you're worried about leaks. They look like regular underwear but have extra layers to catch blood, so you can feel way more confident and not stress about your clothes.
