(Of course, it may be a moot point if I get an IUD after the baby is born. Maybe I'll never have to have a period again!)
I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

I was never able to get the cup to work for me without awkward spillage. Cloth pads, you just need somewhere to put the used ones - Lunapad's little bag seems like it would work fine but I haven't had occasion to try it out since I got it. Incidentally, I have Glad Rags that I've used for around 10 years that are still going strong.

So the cloth pads have no adhesive? I'm now wondering how they stay put. Friction? Inertia? Ennui?

If it is the one about civility from CNN.com, yes. It wasn't mine, no, people have been good about it, as far as I know...of course some of the shares could be finger-pointy, "look at the train-wreck" ones too. But I don't know that so I'm not annoyed. Just that whole thesis, that we can get along if we play nice, and use polite tactics, blah blah, blah.

The Glad Rags have "wings" with snaps. The Lunapads I only use with the Lunapanties that have elastic sewn in to hold the pad in place. Those are pretty dang nice for sleeping in, I have to say.

I was having dread visions of belts. And that's a thing no one should have to revisit.

They have a sort of pocket you can put a liner in...it works great since I tend to have...containment issues with other protection.

Lunapad's little bag
FWIW, you can get one w/ custom fabric for cheaper at Happy Tushies (who makes them for Lunapads). I use her stuff for cloth diapers and can vouch for the quality.

I've been using Luna Pads for a while. The few times I've had to change one while not at home (usually, a pad plus one liner is enough to get me through the work day, except on very heavy days), I've used the little bag that Luna Pads sells. It's got two zippered pockets, both lined with waterproof material, so you keep clean pads in one pocket and put the dirty ones in the other, then rinse them out when you get home. It's worked fine for me.
