A Mooncup Question

cherylanne · Apr 25th, 2009, 06:21 AM

They come in different sizes!!

I went to boots to buy a mooncup yesterday and was surprised they come in different sizes. The question is, how do you know which size is for you? At 21.99 i don't want to have to buy it twice xx

Size 1 for ladies under 30 who haven't given birth vaginally and size 2 for if you have or are over 30.

yeah, so much cheaper than sanitary products, really easy to use

daft question maybe, but how do you use it/fit it? is it comfortable? what about emptying/disposing? i always used tampons before pregnancy as i think pads are yucky tbh so having something 'there' kwim doesn't (generally) bother me, but haven't a clue how thesework.

you fold it and insert it, is liek mastering the nack of a tampon. emptying it is easy, you just do it in the sink(or toliet bowl) and rinse it then re insert

oh right, so it opens up when it's in so to speak? is it a soft material then? the pic on the website you showed it looks hard and plastic like.

omg, all i can think is the look on peoples faces rinsing it out in marks and spencer toilets

periods are def a thing i haven't missed since being preg!!!
