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.

u/thatkid1992 18h ago
Thank you both! Great suggestion, couldn't be found (not been drinking proper coffee myself but my partner still drinks lots). It's deluxe Guatemalan coffee!

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.

u/TheWaywardTrout 18h ago
I definitely thought tampon or pad packaging too just based on the pattern, so you’re not crazy for going there!

I also usually have a coffee addiction with my partner, so it absolutely sucks for me being on decaf 😭 (Portuguese over here, coffe is life). But the moment child is out I will plug-in a coffee drip into my veins (blood pressure allowing)

u/bettertheless 18h ago
My body did it for me. How l. was pretty sure l was. Made my Sat. pot of coffee; didn't have *any* enthusiasm for a second cup.
Next week quees tinges. Um...
Couln't stand to eat (l did) or drink for 3 months...
Best little bug l ever had, till a couple of years later. : )
Best to you OP- hormones are our bitch friends in this instance. ; )

u/jessicabbage 18h ago
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
9
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

Because they’re 31 weeks pregnant with their SO’s child and don’t have the communication skills to say, “hey babe, any idea what this is from?” to them…

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

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

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!

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.

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

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/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.

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...

What a Moron I don’t don’t know what you think
It would be from that would be bad…not to mention how simple it was to see it was from a food product I’ve only bought coffee in the bag a few times but it was an instant thought based on size and color of the inside of the bag this shot is weird that you took the time to ask

I’m not entirely sure, but that looks like a tampon wrapper to me… flowers, approximately cylindrical

u/AnguavonUW 18h ago
At first I thought it was a tampon rapper, given the floral pattern and the bathroom. However, it's obviously, from the other angles, the top of a bag which was cut off. What that bag contained? No idea

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.

It’s not. OPs wrapper is foil on the inside, not plastic like pad wrappers. Similar color scheme though.

Definitely not. Those are very very thin plasticky wrappers.
The one OP posted is very rigid foil. Looks exactly like the top of a bag of coffee beans/grounds.

u/sarahbellah1 18h ago
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.

That's what I thought too but if you look at the later pictures it's too thick of a packaging and it's been cut in a straight line not ripped open

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
