Well, I’ve got a few more embarrassing moments to share with you all. The other day I was doing a late-at-night Facebook live. I wanted to share about my keratin straightening I had done on my hair several days before.
I was just about to jump in the shower and wash my hair for the first time since the treatment. There I was smiling for the camera when I realized my shirt was on backwards and inside-out! All. Day. No-one said anything. What?
Seriously, I’m an expert at laughing at myself. If I weren’t, I couldn’t live with myself. I have embarrassing moments all-the-time. Even while I was writing this post, I accidentally did a YouTube live stream. That shouldn’t have been a big deal though. I mean, I was just sitting in front of the computer working on a few posts, right? Except, I picked my nose, practiced burping, and kept scratching my armpits. When I clicked over to another tab, that’s when I saw that I was supposedly live. I immediately deleted it and there was no way I was going to watch it.
Even I don’t want to see that! In my defense, it was all perfectly reasonable. Really! I’ve had a terrible cold (which is probably bronchitis) for two weeks now. I also have a head cold? I’m stuffed up and asthmatic. I couldn’t breathe, so in addition to taking my inhaler, I tried to clear out my nose, and um….well, you get it. My boys are burping lately and it’s irritating me, so I tried to practice burping because I planned to get them back! Lastly, the armpit scratching was because I have a bug-bite. That’s all quite reasonable, isn’t it? I know. You’re just glad you’re not me!
Well, it gets worse! Now, I don’t have bladder leakage all-the-time, but it’s definitely more than I’d like! Anyway, these last couple of weeks I’ve been having coughing fits. I’m having little accidents more often than the kids. It took me a few days to realize that these little episodes were too consistent to not be wearing my trusty product. So, off to Walmart I went, because I was out of stock.
There I was, standing in line with my Poise® Impressa, when all of a sudden, I had a coughing attack! I peed my pants, just enough to where it was obvious, right there, in front of the world, (and the cashier), all while holding my Poise® Impressa in my hands.
Talk about embarrassing moments!
The cashier looked mortified and so embarrassed for me. Everyone was already staring at me because of my coughing fit. The woman in front of me said, “you can go first, honey!” Then she whispered, “it’s happens to me, too!” I paid for my purchase and a bag to hide the wet spot on my jeans, then ran to my car and cried. Eh, I only cried for a minute though. Then I laughed so hard! I thought about all the clever things I could have said in the moment, but I drew a complete blank! I could have been like, “if I’d been wearing these babies, this wouldn’t have happened!” LOL. So many things I could have said…
Sometimes I think stuff like this only happens to me. That’s not true though. Not at all! I’ve been working with Poise® since 2016. My intro post, Where’s Your Sense of Humor? has 107K Facebook Likes/Shares. Bladder leakage is a very common problem! We should talk about it.
Trying Poise® Impressa is easy, thanks to their sizing kit, which is your perfect starting point. It’s designed to help you quickly find your most effective and comfortable internal fit. The Impressa sizing kit includes two bladder supports of each size. Take back your confidence and laugh-out-loud!
Poise® Impressa is available at Walmart and has really does make life so much easier, when I remember to keep them stocked!
Take advantage of these great iBotta offers right now, too!
The Impressa bladder supports are the first over-the-counter internal product in the U.S. cleared by the FDA for the temporary management of Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI). Designed to reduce or stop urine leakage in women with SUI, Impressa comes in three different sizes to adapt to your unique internal shape. Once you find the right size for you with the Impressa Sizing Kit, your leaks may decrease or even stop.
Of course, results will be different for every woman, as Impressa can reduce leakage in some, stop leakage in others and may not work for some. From the outside, they look like something you’ve seen before, but they’re amazingly different! Just make sure you begin with the sizing kit if you’ve never used them before. Don’t forget to use the coupons!

You totally crack me up here! I don’t think I’d want to admit some of my embarrassing moments. I do believe that poise works really well so that you don’t have embarrassing moments in the future. It’s a good thing to keep in mind.
The whole day was humiliating! The armpit scratching, all of it! lol
Oh wow! I would be mortified. But you know what? You have the right idea. You can either freak out or laugh. That’s it.
Yes! (Except laughing is also a culprit!) hahaha
I WOULD HAVE DIED! OMG. On the bright side, you didn’t make the people of WalMart page. **runs to Walmart to pick up impress a pads**
Haha!
haha! That’s so funny and something that I would do myself! My kids would have completely cracked up if I picked them up from school like that! LOL!
Oh! You have nice kids. Lol Luckily I was able to go straight home.
Oh no, sorry that happened! We’ve all had embarrassing moments before though.
Oh yes I have had those embarrassing moments where I have coughed, laughed or sneezed and the flood gates have opened. I always tend to say uh oh and my family laughs. .I do not think it’s funny.
I have went an entire day with my shirt on backwards and no one told me lol. Impressa bladder supports have made a huge difference for my friend. She has her confidence back.
I will have to go pick up some Impressa bladder supports to try. Ever since I had my babies I have had issues with LBL. I would love to ditch the pads and feel more confident.
I think we’ve all had some embarrassing moments in our lives. I love that Poise has these products for women that need them. It’s great to have access to them.
I love how real you are! Sounds like this is the ideal product to help you not make the People of Walmart page! 😉
Haha
I’m so sorry you had such an embarrassing moment like that! I’m glad you were able to laugh about it afterwards. I always tell myself no one is going to remember it happened by tomorrow anyway! Glad there is Impressa to keep more moments like this from happening.
I’m literally laughing out loud from this post. We all have embarrassing moments I guess.
Thank you for sharing your embarrassing moments, I have had countless ones… but I think I blocked them out of my memory for now lol
Oh, we’ve all had those embarrassing moments, trust me! Thank you for being honest about them. And yes, those LBL issues are happening here too– I’m glad Poise products exist to help with this.
Haha, I think we have all been there with those crazy embarrassing moments. We are all human and things happen. Just gotta laugh it off.
How embarrassing! You’re so funny in this piece I love it. I hope you don’t become a People of Walmart!
I love how real you are! Seriously. I am sure that we have all had our own little embarassing moments, It is so important to just laugh it off.
Your stories made me laugh so hard! Seriously I swear these things can happen to anyone. Thank you for sharing.
Oh girl! I feel you! Ask my kids, I have had my fair share of embarrassing moments just like this at WalMart LOL!
