Re: If you had to do it again, what would you bring along?
In case anyone is wondering why tampons have been historically difficult to find here, it’s simply that Indonesian women very rarely use them. That being “said” I will gladly differ all questions requiring expertise on this matter to the other gender. :P
Re: If you had to do it again, what would you bring along?
Confirmed.
We don't like to have a foreign object within our body.
Re: If you had to do it again, what would you bring along?
In 11 years, I have always been able to find them, even in Lombok.

Re: If you had to do it again, what would you bring along?
i got one...
bulk vitamins and Ibuprophen
btw, most OTC and prescription drugs are available at Kimia Apotek (Pharmacy) which are sprinkled all over. they are consistently reliable for non-expired and non-counterfeit medicine... but in Asia it seems that big bottles of Vitamins and Ibuprophen are not so easy to get. even in Singapore, Ibu is sold only in small blister packs.
Re: If you had to do it again, what would you bring along?
On that ilk and not to seem polyannish, we import a large quantity of pre-natal vitamins and calcium supplements for our village. We have been doing this for many years, and the average birth weight in our village is now up to over one half a kilo from ten years ago. That’s a full pound, and it is significant. Over the past three years in our village, there have been no invitro deaths, and no premies either.
The women curse my name during birth, but shortly after, they show up with coffee, sugar and beras to say “thanks” in their own special way. For the Balinese, “matur suksma” is best conveyed by the eyes and face. Eri and I neither look or listen for either.

If you don't bring these, you probably won't last long enough to need the rest.... :)
Re: If you had to do it again, what would you bring along?
Ladies, save yourself the hassle or buying/tracking down/importing tampons, buy yourself a mooncup (http://www.mooncup.co.uk) costs about the price of 3 boxes of tampons and one lasts a lifetime.
I promise you, you won't look back. Some larger branches of Boots stock them or they're available mail order direct from the company, or get your relations to order and bring one out. :D
I've converted sooo many women to mooncup, I should have shares in the business!

Re: If you had to do it again, what would you bring along?
me neither..... not sure what I think of the idea. I'm sure tampons must have seemed a bit shocking when they first came out....
