I think i did it
I finally got my menstrual cup in position, yay!!!
I've been using cups for several years, on and off with various different positions to put it in: squatting, foot on either tub, sink, or toilet, or sitting on the toilet at various angles. My go to has always been squatting, but with my knee acting up i decided to try sitting on the toilet again.
First time today, it was on my bladder so i had to reposition it. Sitting straight up, i put it kinda parallel to the toilet and knew immediately that wouldnt work. My third try, sitting straight up, once the rim of my cup was inserted past my tailbone i immediately angled my cup up and let go. Voila! My uterus took over, it made the prettiest sealing sound and the rest was history.
I normally have to empty my cup every 4 hours or else... however, while i was at work and out of pure laziness ( I'm a sheriff's deputy so i have to drive to a restroom, take all my gear off, etc.) I waited until 5 hours. It felt like i leaked, but when i checked i didnt and definitely could've went longer...so happy. Thought I'd share
