Question: Pad Blood Clean Up

Leslie

How do y’all make sure you’re cleaning up when you wear a pad? I just switched to a pad and I’m having a hard time finding the best way to clean up right after going pee. Like do you clean up all the blood after each time you pee or do you clean up just the pee and some of the blood? Also how you know when to switch your pad so you’re not wasting it but also not going to leak? I have so many questions I’ve never used pads but tampons were hurting me to I’ve had to switch.
