[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"There is a gusset in the period swimwear that absorbs your period when you're in the water, and also when you come out of the water. When you bleed, the gusset will absorb your period blood. The leak-proof layer of the gusset is water resistant and keeps the blood inside, so you don't have to worry about leaking." Period Swimwear most likely have a more secure fit against your crotch. This way it doesn't let water in nor blood out. Once they are in the wash of course the blood will be washed out. It's like period underwear but tighter fitting and not as breathable. [/quote] But when you sit down in the wet swimsuit, the water/blood squishes out [/quote] It's 2-3 TBSP throughout your entire cycle. If your child is well hydrated, using the bathroom frequently, the odds of "blood" squishing out is rather small. Have them drink a lot of water before they swim, use the restroom frequently, and most of the blood will be in the toilet. [/quote] My daughter wears period underwear sometimes. I put it a bucket to Soak and the water turns red. When I lift it out and ring, more red. So I’m not sure why you think this wouldn’t happen with a wet swimsuit [/quote] Typically underwear is worn longer than swimwear. I wouldn't spend an entire day in period swimwear (unless going to the beach and not going into the water). For a swim team practice it'll be fine.[/quote]
