Tried it properly for the first time tonight and, holy fuck.....It hurts! I used some diagrams off Google so I am fairly sure I am doing it right.
Also I think I got over-enthusiastic and grazed myself as there was some blood afterwards :(
It has kind of scared me, thinking that if that's why I can do with my fingers, what is a baby's head going to do?!
But I wonder if this is because I am using water based lubricant. Do I maybe need something more...moisturising, like an oil? To help the stretch?
Any experiences or tips gratefully received!
