i unexpectedly got my period last night when i was sleeping
and it got allllllll over my bed sheets

so i was wondering how to get it out...

Bleach?

but my sheets arent white...

I would think, the same way you would deal with any blood stain.

I'm guessing it'll be hard.

soak in hot water/soap for a reallly long time

after it happens... like within a few hours you can put warm water on it and then salt- which will absorb the blood. but i guess that only works if you have spots.... not like a puddle

would hydrogen peroxide work?

^ yes

and rub in COLD water with soap not hot

soak it in cold water for awhile, then use... Shout. i think that's what my mom uses.

soak it in cold water and then put soap and rub it, or you can simple just buy new bed sheets.

Yeah, cold water and soap should work. But if the spot is big and has kind of sat for a while you might end up having to get rid of your sheets.

you can drench the rest of your sheets in blood.

^ That's not right

Spray & Wash and put it in the washing machine.

Soak in hot water, use some soap i guess, for as long as you can sustain doing that. And then put it in the washing machine. Hope that works. Never tried it though, just using best judgement..

get new sheets but this time get them in a maroon color :)

Well I have this stuff called Zout... it's great because it's like soap/bleach for colors or something. I usually get most of it out with soap and water but the really bad stains I use the Zout.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

exactly

Cold water & soap usually does the trick! But not hot water, that'll make the stain set

hydrogen proxide works too
i use water =cpold and lots of soap and ltos of scrubbing. hopefulyl yours willcome out

LOL haha

get new sheets? or just bleach your entire sheet white? thats why you're suppose to track your days so when you think you're gonna get it you start wearing a liner or a small tampon

My mom just hand washes it with soap and cold water.

dont let anyone sleep on it.

^ lolz. yeah. thaat.
but honestly, this never happens cos before i get my period i sleep w/pads and a towel on top of my sheets, but when i bleed through my clothes, i put it in cold water, TONS OF SOAP. so try that?

That is a bit gross, thats never happend to me, but usually if you go to your washing machine on the cover of it, it tells you how to get certain things out of clothes and it should have blood.

If not use the link above.

Rinse In The sink and Squeeze Then Place In Washing Machine ! xx

well when i was about ten years old
i got hit in the head and my new shirt that i loved
was covered in blood. my mom didnt throw it away she let it sit in the bathroom for weeks
and then my grandma told her to soak it in salt water over night and she did and all the blood came out

even after it sat there for weeks

so just soak it in salt water.
it works.

Great ? I always wondered about this.

You need to Pre-soak it in some really cold water.
If you add some pre-soaking stain remover powder as well it works.
Such as Biz or OxyClean maybe.

Yeah, they have it on my washing machine. Thanks for sharing, though. This never happened to me though. Thank god.

if your patient...put that in a bucket of bleach and HOTT water, for a long time...but if your not, take a very powerful scrub and SCRUBBBBBBBB till you see no more stains, LOL

that happens to me all the time.

i just throw them in the washing machine and it comes out.

..youre not suppose to use hot water. youre suppose to use cold water.......

that sucks.


i would say, just get new sheets. that would be the easiest.

and less embarrassing trying to get the blood out of your sheets.

after it happens... like within a few hours you can put warm water on it and then salt- which will absorb the blood. but i guess that only works if you have spots.... not like a puddle

I'm pretty sure you are supposed to use cold water. I have had that somewhat happen to me before so dont think you are alone...but just soak it and then wash it.

Dont use hot water.
Soak it in some kinda stain remover
then wash it....thats what i do.

you silly cootie.
