I'm 3 weeks postpartum and wondering when I can start using my diva cup again. Do I have to wait until my first period or can I use it for my lochia? Thanks!

did you have a vaginal delivery? standard care for postpartum moms is nothing in the vagina for at least 6 weeks.... so no diva cup or tampons til then. use pads. then talk to your OB at your postpartum checkup.

I wouldn't use it, just pads, I'm pretty sure I read that you shouldn't use anything tampons, so I'd guess the diva cup wouldn't be a good idea either.

Wow. I had no idea what a diva cup was. I thought you were asking about when you could drink alcohol again. hA. #PadUser

Me neither, had to Google it. How interesting! I say 6 weeks as well.

Kind of off topic, kind of on topic....
I am finding that tampons are uncomfortable post vaginal delivery. Anyone experience this and switch over to a diva cup?
