Okay I must be completely inept with the divacup or way too fleshy and sensitive.
2nd day I've tried to put it in, and upon doing to full turn to pop it open, I managed to slice a part of my fleshy vulva with my short nails. Yesterday I sliced the inner labora, and today I apparently sliced part of the fleshy covering of my urethra.
Argh.
So I guess I won't be able to use the divacup very well if at all. :-/
It burns. *sigh*

Then, were your nails long, or freshly cut? If so, next time you try it, cut them and let the sharpness wear down (or file them down a bit so they aren't sharp) before trying it again.
Were you taking it slowly? If not, try going really slow and moving gently. Sure, it will take longer - but it won't hurt so much. Keep your nails pointing slightly in at the cup, instead of out at your vaginal walls. If using a little lube will help, try that too.
Don't give up just yet. Good luck with it!

Date: 2003-10-01 07:07 am (UTC)The problem is, I have very fleshy down there, and really small too, so manuveuring at that angle doesn't leave much room to not accidentally hit the flesh.
I actually got it in fine.. what cut me up was trying to twist it to actually pop it open. It goes in well, no real pain or anything, but when it's in, it disappears deep in my flesh, so grabbing the base results in me pinching myself at the very least. (I did get it in successfully when I first got it.)
I just also have an issue getting it out. My urethra is covered by massive fleshiness, so when it is coming out open, it sometimes, not always, pushes really hard against it. (Today it made me nearily pass out because I managed to stab myself with my thumb nail on that flesh while putting it in.)
I dunno.. it may be the angle that I have to use. My hands are really small, so it's difficult to actually do anything inside of me anyways. (If I ever want to finger myself, I have to curl into a ball first to actually reach in past like an inch.)
*shrugs*
I guess I'll try it again soon. How long does it take to heal down there? It barely hurts anymore from the cuts, but I'd like to be able to try it this week while I still have my period.
[Thank goodness for 1 year guarantees though!]
