I also check the outer edge to make sure it's in the right place and fully open/expanded. I freaking love menstrual cups and never want to go back to tampons ever again. This bums me out that I am also having issues making it work!</p> <p>I just ordered a size 1 lunette since I'm fairly certain that the size 2 is just too big for me. I have a small &amp; low cervix AND my flow is light to medium, so I just don't need the capacity of the size 2. I also plan on asking my gyno next week when I go for my annual exam, just to make sure it isn't something like wimpy pelvic floor muscles causing this. https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-childbirth-menstrual-cup-size-2#post-1822523 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 22:08:52 +0000 JessKas 1822523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My size one diva cup felt too long post partum. I bought a size two sckoon cup after researching shorter cups and it's much more comfortable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-childbirth-menstrual-cup-size-2#post-1822521 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 22:03:45 +0000 JennyD 1822521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sorry. Mine's not slipping but I'm having trouble with leaking. It's only the second time I've used it post partum. Maybe I'm rusty at putting it in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-childbirth-menstrual-cup-size-2#post-1822361 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 19:48:15 +0000 Lilbear 1822361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-childbirth-menstrual-cup-size-2#post-1820704 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 23:13:24 +0000 Lilbear 1820704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought that turning it inside was more comfortable because it was making it shorter, so it won't fall OUT. I am kicking myself for throwing out my size 1 diva cup since I could have a comparison. I had this same issue with my diva cup, so I bought a size 2 lunette since it is supposed to be shorter in length, but is looks exactly like my size 1 diva sizewise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-childbirth-menstrual-cup-size-2#post-1820701 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 23:08:04 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1820701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't gotten that far post-partum yet, but I would think if it is slipping then maybe it is too small? Turning it inside out would make it bigger too. I think if it works that way for you, go with it. The pre-birth size would be smaller I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-childbirth-menstrual-cup-size-2#post-1820700 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 23:03:20 +0000 Lilbear 1820700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got my first postpartum period and am having issues with my size 2 menstrual cup slipping down. I turned it inside out, which makes it way more comfortable, but I am now wondering, should I have stuck with the pre-childbirth size 1 cup? Does anyone have any experience with this sizing issue? </p>
