Marie is one of our 2020 favorites! We caught up on an Instagram live to learn a few signs related to periods.
Marie Cao is the creator of the Instagram account "Little Bun Bao". She is a professional LSF (Langue des Signes Française) interpreter and author of the book "Le Grand guide des signes avec bébé", which gives parents all the tools they need to gradually learn signs. Depending on the child's age and development, parents will be able to communicate with baby from the very first months. This enables children to express their needs, and thus avoid a lot of crying.
Don't hesitate to read her book! We've read it and learned a few signs with our babies, and it's great! In our video, you'll find some tips on how to sign with your baby. How to say "mommy", "I'm hungry", how to say "again", how to say "hello", "goodbye", "thank you".
Marie and I have decided to give you an additional means of communication to talk about your periods. We hope it will help you.
Watch this short video to learn more about how to say in LSF (Langue des Signes Française); "J'ai mes periods ", "j'ai mal au ventre", " protection hygiénique " ....
Many of you still suffer from the taboos associated with periods within your family and friends. Many people still don't dare express the fact that they have their periods, that they need sanitary protection and find themselves in menstrual precariousness without protection. Many also tell us that they are unable to express their pain during periods.
Thank you, Marie, for all the information you've given us to help us communicate a little more effectively with the deaf and hard-of-hearing, or simply with friends and family!
And what signs do you remember?
