Oh, man, I can't stand pads. They feel bulky and wet and cold and icky. I've been using OB no applicator for...10 years now? That's 10 out of 11 years of my period. They rock! I don't really care about the blood, it's a natural thing. Those squeemish girls confuse me
By the way, shannon, I picked up the new OBs but haven't had a chance to try them yet. I'll let you know in a couple weeks
