Wow. I'm happy to hear if this. I tried a reusable cup about 17 years ago but gave up on it because it irritated my urethra. I've been told that I just didn't get the right size.

I think, as with everything, one size does not fit all.

Yay! I'm going to use a cup/re-usable cloth pads when my periods eventually return. (More than 4 years since my last period!) So glad to read that they've worked for you.

Do you mind if I ask how it's been 4 years since you've had a period?

Well, I got pregnant in November 2009, then miscarried at Christmas. Had a period in January (the last period). Got pregnant in February. River was obsessed with boob (and still is, to be honest, but obviously I'm all about boobing Willow these days) while also being rubbish at it, and the duration and frequency of feeds kept my periods away ( ... )

Thanks for sharing this. I didn't realise you miscarried. I'm sorry about that.

I didn't realise some women don't have their periods while breastfeeding. (Which: how do I not know this?!) I believe my mother did.
