Do you Diva during pregnancy?  

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
We are currently ttc #2 right now. I'm trying to get back into the whole baby mode again. And it's coming back to me rather slowly.
Since DD was born, I have adopted my Diva and LOVE her. So I'm wondering if I can use her instead of pads during pregnancy? Does this cause any discomfort that you didn't have during AF? TIA

I've thought about this before, too. Has anyone tried it?

Sounds potentially dangerous.

I wouldn't do it, mostly because you want to be able to see discharge during pregnancy, so you know if you're spotting or bleeding or whatever.

I wouldn't do it, it seems like it could pull on your cervix. I would get some lovely organic velour mama pads and fuggetaboutit.

yeah, I would think that it wouldn't be okay because it can cause suction on the cervix. But also, more practically - I don't think it would really help a lot with preg discharge, becuase I'm pretty sure that a lot of it is vaginal discharge, not just cervical. So the diva wouldn't *catch* it anyway

Personally, I wouldn't put anything in your cervix during pregnancy if you don't need to. Just precaution.

Now relations with your SO is another story....

I also use a Diva cup, and although I don't think it would actually cause any harm (it sits below the cervix, much lower than a tampon) I agree with the previous post that a lot of pregnancy discharge is vaginal, not cervical, so the cup wouldn't really "catch" everything. Some nice soft momma cloths seem to be the way to go.
