I accidently flushed a rolled up maxi pad down the toilet it clogged up at first but got it to push through with a plunger. It happened 13 days ago and it hasn't clogged up since, does that mean I made it through the toilet line? It happened at my friend's house. I'm scared the toilet or something will back up because of it.

Well don't worry about it, if it hasn't been clogging up for 13 days it must be fine. I guess the maxi pad was small enough to fit in the toilet. I think since its been 13 days you can assume it already went through the toilets pipe line. So no worries. Have a banana!
I don't think there's anything to be scared about, you will be fine
If it were to clog up again wouldn't it have happened by now? Pads expand once they hit water.
Yeah probably, but it hasn't right? So it probably made it out of the drain before expanding, or something.
The pad was rolled up in toilet paper too so I don't know if that helped it or if it's snagged on something and water is just going around it in the pipe
I think since it was rolled up it helped the pad go down the pipe.
This happened on vacation at a friend's house we were staying at. I'm scared they might call us and ask if any of us flushed something that wasn't supposed to be flushed but there is nothing we can do about it now. But i'm scared like what if it's stuck on something and everyone's waste is just backed up behind it and it floods or something?
I got scared because I've heard stories of things like that like a week later and backing everything up.
