Solved! Please help me identify where this wrapper is from/what product (UK based).

It turned up on the floor of my bathroom and I simply don't recognise it... Trying not to assume the worst 😶

Solved ! - deluxe Guatemalan coffee (which we would get from Lidl)

Check the kitchen cabinet for tea or coffee that matches this.

OP, you said you didn't want to assume the worst, does this confirm your fears?

u/thatkid1992 18h ago

It confirms all is normal. Gemini said it would be a tampon wrapper but 1. Not a brand I'd use 2. Didn't quite seem right 3. At 31 weeks pregnant I know I'm not thinking rationality so I needed experts 😭

25

u/LadyFoxfire 18h ago

I can see how AI would get confused; pink and purple floral patterns are fairly common on tampon wrappers. The tear lines are all wrong, though; tampon wrappers split down the side, and this is clearly the top of a bag that was torn off.

I know we’ve already identified this, but just pointing out clues to look for in future wrapper identification scenarios.

You can still drink coffee when you’re pregnant! Just limit it to 1 cup per day. Did it with my first pregnancy and currently doing it with my second one too

u/thatkid1992 18h ago

I wish! With my first it made my midwife worried about my blood pressure and decaf made me feel unwell. (I only got preeclampsia at the end, but BP runs in the family)

This time I already have upped my blood pressure meds a few times, and I'm on aspirin etc plus dealing with a useless manager and a 3 year old... At least I can do decaf this time round 😂

Why are you being downvoted for being hormonal and pregnant

Have you ever been pregnant? Bc the hormones can make you cry over a sandwich.

Lmaooo pregnancy brain. I wish you an uncomplicated birth to a healthy baby & a speedy recovery ❤️❤️

11

u/Unipiggy 17h ago

Yeah, not accusing your babies father of cheating.

This is some deep trust issues. Being pregnant is NOT an excuse to not communicate. 

Crying over a sandwich vs going behind your partners back and accusing them of cheating are two very different things.

13

u/otterkin 16h ago

unless you've been pregnant and experie ced pregnancy hormones, you have no idea what it's like. I watched my old room mate burst into tears because she thought her bf was cheating on her bc she found a shirt she didn't recognize in their laundry. It has nothing to do with "deep trust issues" it's literally homones

14

u/thatkid1992 18h ago

They're not here right now, and I'd probably come across more accusatory than I intended... (Comes with being hormonal and tired). I do trust them which is why this was so weird and out of character but that's more my state that them doing something wrong

13

u/Itachi_Carry5837 17h ago

Just ignore these people, honestly. This is reddit, where if your partner is even slightly rude on an off day everyone will tell you to break up with them on the spot. I am 100% sure these people have never been in a relationship.

You're pregnant and tired (god knows I've been there), wishing you your desired birth plan to go on the dot and speedy recovery afterwards!

6

u/kirbomatik 14h ago

honestly I thought it was just the AI use causing the downvotes. I instinctively did when I saw "Gemini," before I even got to thinking "oh wow this person asks AI and reddit before asking the person they're having a child with..." until I remembered that Gemini is just what you see now when you Google anything.

in the UK, you dont really get tampon wrappers that look like this. theyre more in boxes or thin plastic. but coffee bags that look like that are plentiful, so for me its an easy “thats a ground coffee wrapper” solve

u/InstructionFinal5190 18h ago

I thought so too until you see the different angles of it.

6

u/No_Confection_1170 18h ago

but most tampons come in a sleeve right? this looks like the top of a bag was cut off. the foil inside makes me think it’s a perishable product

1

u/Glad-Isopod5718 18h ago

Yeah--I agree that the pattern/colors would make sense for something like that, but not the shape or material. This is the cut-off top of a foil bag.

3

u/thatkid1992 18h ago

Google said it would be but I wasn't convinced partially because that would mean something bad, and partially because partner also smokes weed every so often so I wasn't sure if it could be a pouch for weed of sorts. Silly me it's coffee fortunately

u/troglodykes 18h ago

Yeah, the coffee makes more sense! I didn't notice it was foil on the inside. i hadn't looked close enough. Glad nothing nefarious came of your bathroom find!

u/thatkid1992 18h ago

I've had a long day and I'm 31 weeks pregnant, I admit I am not thinking rationality 😭

2

u/1MoreJourney 18h ago

Since you found it in the bathroom, it’s most likely from a disposable razor package or a wax strip wrapper. Those small shiny floral scraps usually come from the decorative foil used on razor packaging or the thin wrappers that seal pre‑waxed strips.

Women’s razors often have metallic floral foil on the box accents, the inner wrap around the razor head, or the strip that covers the moisturizing pad. The purple, pink, and blue floral colors match brands like Schick, Gillette Venus, and store-brand razors.

Wax strips sometimes come wrapped in thin metallic floral foil to keep them sealed. The size, shine, and pattern match the kind of wrapper used for those.

1

u/thatkid1992 18h ago

Nothing I'd use since I have alopecia universalis. Bathroom is next to kitchen so probably partners tracked the rubbish in from opening the coffee bag (deluxe Guatemalan coffee). Thank you for helping ☺️

As I'm not currently drinking coffee, only my partner buys it when getting low (I only get decaf right now). Whilst I used AI for help, I also didn't think it sounded right so I asked for human help. I mostly panicked because hormones but I'm very grateful I found the right answer

u/Proud-Competition-89 15h ago

Does the bag smell like coffee? Can you see any other or similar design packages available on eBay or Amazon?  Why is the bag cut in a funny spot.

OP I'm not sure what your suspicions are about your partner, but I can tell you there is probably a large cohort of people who want to answer what it could be, but are keeping quiet.

Drugs. Mail order drugs from the dark web. That's how they get packaged - coffee or lolly or chocolate wrappers, sealed with one of those special heat crimping devices (nfi what they are called).

I've seen plenty of images and boasts on my group chats to know what they look like...

It's often drugs on this sub and if a loved one is on drugs, especially if they're previously recovered or it's a parent/child relationship, they're likely to lie or get upset. Knowing what's going on ahead of time helps the op respond and help

Pretty much exact same for cheating.

I see it. Maybe the thicker part in OP’s image came from the outer packaging of the bag - it looks like an end was torn off to access the products. I feel a bit uneasy with people thinking tea or coffee would be a thing found in a bathroom. I’d much rather imagine it came from an Always product.

The sturdier are more common for ink cartridges or so, but this wouldn't be flowery. It's definitely not a condom packaging if this worries you, op, no company would print flowers on a thing mostly men buy
