vaginapagina | Non Traditional nicknames for your period (Reply)

Hokay.

So I've used lots of euphemisms for my period over the years. But they've pretty much just always been the traditional, typical, phrases.

Well, my husband works over seas, we're trying for a baby when he's home, and talking about my period in a "not totally private" (it's an honor system) email...hasn't been something I'd be too interested in doing for some reason. And since he'll be home soon (yay!) we've been "scheduling" my body a bit.

Somehow, in the middle of this, my period got named. Dexter. Yes, after the book/television series with the serial killer obsessed with blood. I think it stemmed from me joking that I had a crime scene in my pants. But....I digress.

Anyone else have a "non-typical" name for their period? I'm sure some of you do...what is it? :)
