what can i give my wife (newly married) to comfort her during her period
| Thu, 06-23-2011 - 1:38am |
I want to put together a “care package"/"i love you” package/"comfort" package for my fiance just before she starts her period. I want to show her that I love her… care for her… and will do anything to comfort her.
She gets painful cramps and I hate seeing her in pain.
What should I put in it? I have the heart-shaped box already…
What a sweet idea! Here are my suggestions:
Pain reliever (whatever works best for her: Advil, Motrin, Tylenol)
heat pad (I've had great success with Thermacare disposal heating pads)
comfort food (chocolate, salty, whatever she craves)
bubble bath, bath salts, lotion to relax the pain away
a book or DVD to help take her mind off her physical symptoms

Aww what a wonderful , thoughtful idea,
I agree with everything RoseAnn said.
Most important is letting her know you're there & lots of hugs for her :)
I really don't think I can add to Roseann's list - it's pretty thorough!!
But, in future if you want to do exercise w/your wife (take her hiking/biking/whatever) then exercise is suppose to really help w/the pain. I have no idea since I have never experienced "pain" of any kind during that time...but then I do exercise a lot and always have so maybe that's why?
GL!
And a cute water bottle, cause drinking water actaully helps.
