Get your Mooncups here for £15.28 including p+p

[FrannyandZooey]

A few people have asked about this month's order so I thought I had better start a new thread.

(if you ordered last month, I have your Mooncup now and will be posting them on Wednesday 11th April )

If you would like one, please email me on frannyandzooey at india dot com.

The next order date will be May 1st, so the money would need to be in my account by then. I can only accept payment by bank transfer or Paypal (full details on how to do this will be sent when you email me).

Franny's mooncups are the cheapest and the best (but she can't get pink spotty ones )

Might start a poll thread - where are Mooncups cheaper - from Franny or eBay

Franny is able to buy Mooncups at a wholesale price and is out of the kindness of her own heart selling them on to MNers for No Profit At All, nanni...

and i really do agree with you about the blood, franny. it's lovely and red, not all horrid and absorbed and brown. i do feel rather different aobut my periods now, of couse a lot of that is down to the fact that the MC has drastically reduced the period pains i get.

gon hunker

oh you are all BAD

nanninurse just ignore these naughty ladies - but if you can't get why I am a bit irritated about the eBay thing, at least give it a rest for now

have emailed F&Z as cannot open attachment but wnat one before my next period.

H2O has it really made you r periods better? fab!

Aitch oh GOOD

I thought I would be revolted by the blood but it is FAB

and I know I am not alone in thinking this, so it is not just me having had a barking epiphany

I would really like to see them become commonly used by young women. I think it can radically affect the way you feel about your body, its products, and the whole process of menstruation

when you have the whole period talk with your daughter will you give her pads or go striaght for the mooncup?

DT I have emailed you

gosh my Mooncup inbox is hot tonight

Shame I have boys [ponders] no, really would be unfair to make them use mooncups

(Nanni, I was teasing, hope you didn't take offence)

lolol hunker!!

I only have a son so far

I expect I would let her choose

do most girls prefer pads at first? I expect so. They are a lot better now than the huge rustlers that existed when I was a lass...I turned my nose up at them and went straight onto tampons

20+ years of sticking expensive cotton shite up my fanjo

i recommended it to my friend with the dreadful crohns disease (you may have heard me banging on about her before). she reckons that, in all seriousness, it has given her three days back in every month. she was using tampons previously and was suffering terrible pains but she put it down to age and the crohns. now she wonders if she was just very sensitive to the localised dehydration in her fanjular area. amazing. i know that she is now recommending them to people, her sister and neice now use them (she's very bossy) and she's telling other crohns sufferers about them too. so, thanks frank for giving me the confidence to try one, as it's made a huge difference to my lovely friend.

No probs I am just glad for other MNers going on about them constantly or I would never have had the nerve to get one

and I am lucky I have access to wholesalers and so can do this

MamaG waver no more

come and join our happy band

have just transferred. Am finishing period now and (TMI) hate that 'dry' feeling you get when you take a tampon out. the pain has been awful too. Am excited now.

Oh good DT I really hope it makes a difference for you

I still get period pain, but my insides are so messed up I can't imagine it being any other way. It's period pain that's bearable with painkillers after the first day now, which is a massive improvement on what it was. I posted re it last night - I'll c&p.

Hi everyone. Am seriously considering getting one but still waivering slightly. Are they difficult to insert and can you feel them when they are in? I use tampons and sometimes can feel them as they 'fall' down and have to remove them and use a pad.

Sarah you should not be able to feel it, no, but if you have problems using a tampon you might also have problems with a mooncup

(I don't mean, I know about this and I think you will, I mean, for all I know you MAY. I don't want to sell you one and have you unable to use it)

They really are not difficult to insert.

Hunker I am sorry to hear it is so painful

Sorry F&Z I really need one for next week and it won't be here on time. So I will pay the extra money and get mine (ok a B one) from you when the rubber disolves on this one.

If the rubber perishes can I get pregnant?

well i don't know, sarahlou. the thing about the mooncup is that it doesn't just stick up there, it stays up by suction to your cervix. (it is the cervix, isn't it?) so i'd have thought that would be better for you than a tampon. being utterly grotesque for a minute, let's say i am doing a particularly difficult poo while the MC is inserted, well, i am aware that my MC can pop out of my vagina (or is it vulva, lord knows?) but the point is that it doesn't fall out, it stays stuck.
