Girls only, I'm having problems and need advice!!?

Okay so, I'm 13 and got my first period in January I believe. So it's been almost a year. My mother knows. I used the last pad we have until I couldn't use it anymore, and took what I thought to be the last tampon. I had it in for several hours, to the point where I was worrying myself sick about TSS and took it out. I used the ACTUAL last tampon that my mom happened to have in her purse. After about an hour, I began to bleed THROUGH the tampon - and onto my underwear. Ew! What a mess! I cleaned it up and took care of myself. It's been about 3 days since my period started, and it usually lasts at least 8. I tried wrapping toilet paper around my underwear and it turned out to be a failure. Right now I have some toilet paper I folded to act like a pad, and it's been working for the last 10 minutes or so. I'd say this is the heaviest period I've ever had, and I'm really freaking out. What do I do for the night? It's around 10pm right now and I've got to go to bed soon, because I have school tomorrow. But I don't want to make a mess in my sleep! Is there some homemade sort of paddish-thing that should take care of me while moving around in the night?


Thanks so much for your help and advice.Girls only, I'm having problems and need advice!!?
Ask your mom to run out and get pads or tampons, tell her it is urgent.Girls only, I'm having problems and need advice!!?
if you have cotton wool and gauze, make a pad. get a thick enough wad of cotton and wrap the gauze around it and you should be cool for tomorrow. if not use the cotton alone. if you have neither, bounty would work well, the quilted quicker picker up. girls gotta think. so if you have neither of those...get a piece of plastic, tape it to the bed and get some handkerchiefs, the thicker the better. a rag or something. and you should be good to go.
