So, after the talk of periods and stuff in the confessions thread, and the "cups" I took it upon myself to use my current AF situation as a way to hopefully open new doors to me and fellow interested knotties. Sooooo I I went to Kroger and purchased a box of "Softcups" by Instead. They're disposable and not shaped like the DivaCup or anything, but I figured I'd shell out $5 for 14 of them and see how I felt about the situation instead of spending $35 and maybe being freaked out. And wasting money. (Plus, I had a coupon for $.80 off so...ya know...)
Anyway, I know people were interested/nervous whatever like me so I figured I'd give a report.
Insertion = awkward, but not terrible. I'm sure the next time will make more sense.
Comfort = I don't feel anything. It's very similar to a tampon.
Removal = haven't done it yet, but it's NOT like the DC, you have to put your finger up there and pull it out by the rim.
I'll update in the morning.
BTW: I may be crazy in thinking this might be similar to the DC, but I don't think I am with the general idea being the same. Tell me if I'm wrong!
