okay so you're suppose to put the tampon in the hole closest to your stomach right? cause i tried opening like the lips and its really small...the tampon doesn't fit and i don't know if i should force it...helppppp =/
What really helps when you're first starting is having a mirror to help you see down there and get it in the right place. A hand held mirror that you can hold that in one hand and hold the tampon in the other. Yeah, it takes practice. Took me a little while before i could put it in without even looking. But it's really easy once you get it and it will come to you don't worry!
Important thing is to stay calm. I freaked out too when i first started using them. But don't be nervous, later on you'll feel stupid for it lol
Not being nervous or tense helps to relax the muscles down there because when you first start it will probably hurt a little and won't go up quite so easy as it will after youve done it a bunch.
Just put it up to the right hole and slowly start sliding it up (remember to relax and breathe) and slowly push and dont be afraid to move the tampon around a little work with it to get it up there, wiggle it around some if you need to when you're first gettin it in there.
Don't force the tampon that's not a good idea.
Start out slow and soon itll slide right on in there :)

I'm pretty sure you put it in the middle hole!
i think that's right, almost positive.
you do not put it in the place where you pee.
do not do that.
I'm pretty sure it would hurt a lot. [ itstimetoknow's advice column | Ask itstimetoknow A Question ]

Make sure you're using a plastic applicator the first few times (smoother insertion). Relax! Tension can cause the vaginal muscles to tighten up and close. Don't worry too much about the hole. If you can position yourself correctly, the tampon will slide right in without much guidance. Insert it until that tip is all the way in, then push in the applicator. You'll be fine. If the tip is not sliding in, take it out and try again. If the pain is too great, stop. You'll know its in right when the actual tampon is pushed in. It can't fit up your urinary tract. Good luck!
