So of course I sell them

But I really do like them. They are so comfy. Ive tested them overnight on heavy days and they are fine. I am a SAHM so I generally use them at home. They dry quickly.

The best verdict on them I think is that they are my best selling product.

Ive seen a few queries in the past on forums like this and sadly they dont get many replies - not sure why - maybe the many buyers are'nt forum users.

Thanks Heather!

WSS. I really love my Jam Sponge. Before the Jam Sponge I used a Mooncup, but since I discovered Jam Sponge it just sits in a corner unused.

Interesting, maybe I need to try one

Just got one and used it at the tail end of last month.

It was fab! I had a mooncup and didn't get on with it - couldn't manage to get a seal - maybe because of scarring? The jam sponge was easier to get in (softer) and felt better inside.

Only downside was it's not as easy to change as a mooncup - moon cup is a tip and reinsert, whereas a jam sponge needs a rinse.

But definately got the thumbs up from me - I bought some reusable tampons at the same time but not sure whether they're going to get a look in - haven't even tried them yet, and considering selling them

Thanks for the additional comments.

I haven't had the return of AF yet due to BF, and I have some CSP ready for when it does, but I'm thinking a jam sponge might be the best thing to use whilst exercising/going swimming, etc... I prefer pads tbh, but do like to have something available for those times when a pad isn't very practical.

The info I've read on how to care for the sponges has confused me a little - do you take it out, rinse and use it straight away again, or do you wash it in the machine after use? I thought I read that it has to be moistened before being popped in?

Rinse and replace! then rinse in vinegar and leave to air dry at the end.

It does need to be damp to use it.

Sarah, did you try one of these? im thinking of trying one after my pp bleeding has stopped once bump is here...just wondered how you were getting on with it?
