Has anybody used the Diva cups during their periods? I keep seeing them at store and even though they cost around $40.00 they'd pay for themselves in a couple of months. I'm most curious to hear from gals who have had children naturally and used the #2 cup.

Hi AnneMarie! I use a monthly cup. It isn't Diva, though. I got my lady cup through a group buy with the company ($10!!) and got a couple. I have used them for over a year. I find that they are starting to leak a bit, so I am planning to order a skoon cup. The shape seems better. I have had 4 c-sections, been pregnant 5 times. I also have several friends who use a cup and have had natural births. I do recommend it! That being said, there is a bit of a learning curve while you get used to it. Wear a liner for a while until you get the hang of what works for you. I use Mama cloth, as well, something else you might look into! :)

Many Blessings- Alicia #5232

I use a diva cup and have for years... I'm a momma of 6 with number 7 on the way... 2 have been c-sections. I also use momma cloth as well. They more than pay for themselves, but I also have found that my cycles have been shorter and less painful by using a diva cup opposed to a tampon.
