Lol Jules. good old nhs! You are lucky to get them on prescription there because those UK ones are very expensive!
Karly I'm sorry to hear you had some pain with them, I haven't heard of anyone having that before. It's not really any different than having a cath in, just not as long and softer. But I wondered if maybe it is to do with the length? When you cath how far are you able to put the cath in? I think most people can put them in further but Anna's only goes in about 60mm which is the length of the plug, she must have something in the way. So I wondered if that was the problem, because it is possible to get shorter plugs, not mine (though maybe they could be trimmed down lol) but the UK ones come in a shorter length as well.

Rosemary,
I put my cath in a lot farther than the said nec, but I don't feel like it's in good if I don't put it in as far as I do. I feel like it's going to come out when i start the flow if i don't put it in as far (which it has) That may be part of the problem is that it's not that long??? I'm not sure.
