Hmm ... maybe next time around I'll try those! I like the GladRags and the LunaPads, though I'll note that since I use the cup for heavy flow I don't need quite as much absorbency.
Interestingly, I have always hated tampons. Never could get the hang of them. Insertion was always painful, I could always feel them in there, and my body seemed to react to them by flipping into a sort of low-level shock mode till I removed them. But the cup--yeah, I can feel it in there, but once I trimmed and sanded (very important, the sanding!) the stem, I only notice it when I pay attention. It's a bit surprising, actually.
