New to diva cup and it hurts?

I use it from the very beggining coz I couldn't be bothered, lol.
You shouldn't be able to feel it. Are you sure it's opened up all the way? Run your finger around it to make sure it's popped open fully. The first few times I was putting it up too much before letting it open and found it was going up behind my cervix and staying folded up ITMS, so that could cause the pressure and leaking? That's all I can think of!

IT sounds like either it's not positioned quite right and/or it's the wrong size for you.
I know a lot of the sites will say if you've had children then you need a large one, but that isn't necessarily the case.

Thanks guys. Will give it another go...bugger madB really I got the bigger one :-/
will go have another fiddle :-p

It might just be that you need a little more practice. It can take a few cycles to get the knack.
I got a small from meluna and it fits just fine I'm a small build and have a low cervix, so need a smaller one despite having had 2 kids and being well past 30

I had another go and it felt right but I can feel it when I move........I took it out cause I was worried it might leak :-/ will keep going :-) I want to get it right before we go away in February :-)

I think you might need a smaller one- you shouldn't be able to feel it even if it's not postioned entirely right.

More like feel it coming out iykwim. Maybe I need to push in it further?
