I purchased a divacup recently and I was super excited to use it for the first time. I am currently traveling around Australia in a van so I figured I would just try and put it in after a shower in the campsite that I'm currently staying in.

After hopping out of my shower and reading the leaflet, I made my first attempt. I curved it into the U shape and after a few tries, I managed to insert it. I was pretty happy with myself! So I checked the leaflet... What's next? Okay so now I need to rotate it. I put my finger up to do this and I just seemed to be pushing it further and further up and back!! So, naturally, I started to panic. The more I was trying to get it out, the deeper it seemed to go! So I just shoved two fingers up and- somewhat painfully- dragged it out.

It appears that it never really opened up and instead just stayed folded inside me. Or at least that's what it felt like!?

I'm now a little worried about trying again... Does anyone have any tips on how to make easier?😂
