I had that problem but then read the leaflet and it told me to push and then i could get my finger around the rim and pull it out.

I used them for the first time this cycle. First time i used it, i got DH to do his bit into the cup and then I inserted it - but most of it landed on the ensuite floor ...

Next three times we did our thing in the normal fashion and then i inserted while sat on the edge of the bed. No spillage no problems - although they're slightly more difficult to remove than they are to fit, but you get the hang of it.

fingers crossed they work ...

I prefer getting DH to deposit straight into the cup before inserting it while laying flat as there is no spillage if you do it this way x

I tried getting DH to do his thing into the cup but I spilt most of it. Mind you, I was following the instructions and sitting on the edge of the loo at the time. After that I get them partially inserted while lying down and then I sit up to make sure it gets into the right position after that. Fingers crossed they do the trick anyhow...

Chocci if you find out where to buy rockets let me know....

.... i never got my instead cups. DH appears to have an affliction as far as his SA goes this week and i think expecting him to do it in a cup will have a worse response! Honestly... where's his sense of adventure!

If i started asking my hubby to do it into a cup he would divorce me, it sounds almost as bad as using a turkey baster haha, and after 20 months TTC i am seriously considering that!!! hahaha

My first time in this thread ladies and it has been an education. I think the cups sound great in theory but I can't even get my head around tampons! I once suffered from thrush for weeks before I could round to using the pessary ( which cleared it up start away). I would really like to try these. Comfort me, it wouldn't really get stuck would it? Images of a trip to A&E!!
