Thank you to Poise for sponsoring this post and keeping ladies confident!
Five years ago when I became a mom I knew that many things in my life would change. I’m not just talking about my schedule being taken over by washing crayon off the walls, play dates, and endless episodes of Dora The Explorer. My body went through a lot of changes too and some weren’t so pleasant. In fact I learned early on while watching The Hangover that this ship had a few leaks in it, literally.
Being easily amused, I tend to find the smallest things funny and when you get me going it’s hard to stop. So hard that this day I found myself asking “Did I really just pee myself?” in horror. Yep it happens to the best of us, my mom and grandmother were tinklers too and now I have the pleasure of passing on the gift! NOT. As the years have passed and my body has re-cooperated from childbirth, it’s not a common occurrence. But I still do long for the feeling of protection in case I let out a giggle.
LBL can be a sensitive subject for some women, borderline embarrassing. You may not realize it but one in three women experience Light Bladder Leakage (LBL), which can be triggered by everyday occurrences like coughing, sneezing, laughing or exercise. It’s probably more common than you think. Many women rely on feminine care products or nothing at all to manage their little leaks because they don’t know there are solutions designed specifically for this type of issue. The Poise brand offers a variety of comfortable pads and liners to make it easy to find protection for every woman’s needs regardless of what triggers their tinkle! Face it, we have ALL had that uncontrollable laugh after hearing a funny story or watching our favorite comedy. It happens and it’s okay! Poise has you covered.
Meet SAM. No he’s not the guy next door. SAM (Super Absorbent Material) is a Poise Microliner which is shockingly thin and surprisingly absorbent. It provides protection that helps keep you dry and comfortable all day long so you can manage life’s little leaks with confidence. Poise Microliners are the thinnest liners in the light incontinence category and are designed to absorb wetness, neutralize odor and stay three times drier than period liners.

How awesome is it that we have companies like these looking out for woman! 🙂 I didn't realize that there were products that were specifically created for LBL. I hope they bring these products down to Trinidad, I would definitely try it out.
Melissa @ SippyCupMom says
This is such a common thing for women after having children. I am glad there is a discreet product women can use!
Masshole Mommy says
I don't have leakage issues, but there is a whole group of moms in my zumba class who do & there is always a collective sigh when a song with jumps comes on!
Lindsey Paris says
I saw your instagram post last night. Great photos for this campaign!
Lori says
It's great how many products there are for women. Definitely less embarrassment since it is not so taboo anymore.
Theresa Mahoney says
I like how thin they are! I would feel very confident in my pilates class wearing Poise!
Aimee Fauci says
I have used these a few times and I have to say that I love the SAM commercials. They are so funny and make you remember this product forever.
Debra Rutt says
Totally know what you are saying. I had the same thing after having both of my kids. I always had to have some "protection" with me.
Liz Mays says
This really is self–confidence in a tiny little package. I think they're great!
Savory Experiments says
Luckily I don't have these issues now, but I am more informed in case it ever creeps up. Thanks for the info!
Chrystal Mahan says
Thank you for this post. I am heading over to check out the free sample. I suffer from PCOS and gross as it may be, sometimes cysts burst and I leak. Pads, no matter how thin always seem to have one problem or another. Maybe this will be helpful.
Janell says
Than;s so much for the free sample. I love that women have these options. Babies do change things!

Tonia Sanders says
Good for you that you can be so honest. I swear it's hard to have a sit down with other moms who act like they never lost it after having babies. I did the potty dance on many occasions because my muscles got weak. Poise is a perfect postpartum product.
