Well, plucked up the courage to buy mine through F&Z and have eagerly awaited AF. Well, It's in and I feel rally pleased with myself, but OMG am I dreading getting it out again.....it'll be fine, won't it? Havent felt like this since I was about 13 and trying tampax for the 1st time!

It will be fine, have a dig about and you will find something to grab to get it out I love mine..totally love it ...

I just got one, used it for the first time this month. It worked well, but I think I need to develop the knack of removing it, as it was quite uncomfortable.

I got it because it occurred to me that it would be brilliant on holidays for beach/swimming - better than a tampon that gets saturated and leaky, my theory is that it will hold it all in, so to speak. Hope that's right!

I'm thinking of getting one too.

Hope Franny does another thread. Where is she by the way?

Let us know how you get on.

It came out without too much trouble , think I may be a new convert! Charlie, had to dig a little - it seemed a bit higher than where I left it.....think I may need to trim the stalky bit a tiny bit more though - if I bend wrong I can feel it

Fruittea.....think it's all to do with relaxing and breaking the suction.....really easy to relax with a 3yo banging on the door!

Oh and GythaOggsFrog, not sure where Franny is atm....know she has done a few mooncup threads recently - it took me a couple of months to pluck up the courage Keep checking Health section I guess - her price really is good.
