Day one mother nature is a B***h
hey ladies and gentlemen. if you are reading this well thank you.
So I had a friend ask me if I knew anything about this thing called a diva cup and let me tell you before today I had no clue. However I wanted to find out what this wonderful thing was that would help save the planet by creating less wast. How you ask so let me give you my example. I was a avid tampon wearing female.m My average period lasts 5 days. I am all about changing my tampon frequently so at the most every 6 hours. That’s 20 tampons every cycle or 240 per year, that I am now not going to be using. That’s just the environmental savings let talk money savings. If your like me and buy one box of 24 a time at the price of $8.50 a box you would be saving $85 a year and this if for the cheap tampons. So When all is said and done I decided to invest the $40.00 get a diva cup and give it a whirl... I am going to blog this journey for all you other women out there who are curious.
So the way i started this is I wore the Diva cup for a full day not during my cycle so I could find out how to insert it, remove it,m the feel of it etc, without making a mess. I am so very happy i did this it made day one of my period so much easier.
This thing i hate about this is how up close and personal you need to get with yourself. and when i say up close and personal i mean up close and personal. However being comfortable with my body it wasn’t a hard thing just uncomfortable.
so how did day one go. I would say well inserting and removing it went easy it is hard to get out of the habit of changing it every few hours as this option lasts up to 12 hours.I have realized that we don’t bleed as much as we think. I did ware a liner so that if i experienced any leeks I didn’t ruin my clothing. Luckly with my earlier practice i was good to go. I have to say it is nice to have this in I don’t notice it at all it feels natural. Just like a normal day.
I am worried about sleeping tonight however that is something we will have to see how it goes. For know I am giving this product a pass however you never know what the next 4 days bring
Lets see how the night goes.
