Cups after TTC

[livia_baba]

Friends,

When using instead cups, how do we put it in after TTC? And should we still have hips in the air? A little confused about these cups

I second this. Quite wanting to try them but am confused as to the practicality ? Anyone ?

I'm not sure I can explain it - I use them for AF - but there should be instructions in the box. Or you can always go to their website and I think there are videos there on how to insert.

this is what i did, and i got pregnant the first time, after you bd, you keep your hips up for 10-15 minutes, then put the instead cup in, make sure its under cervix, i had to stick my finger in and check, then i left it in for 10 hours. good luck

There are instructions on the box, but basically, you pinch it in the middle with your thumb on one side and 2 fingers on the other. Insert the front of it into your vagina and angle it so the front is higher than the back. While keeping that angle, push it to the top and back of your vagina, right up by your cervix. Slide your fingers to the back of the cup, and use one or two fingers to push it up on the back side. (the back side of the cup should face the front of your body, and vice versa.)

It should open up and stay inside. You shouldn't really be able to feel it. I'd suggest practicing a few times BEFORE you try it after sex. You want to have the hang of it before it's urgent.
