((Warning: Fairly long and pretty detailed / possibly TMI body-wise lol - hence using the "Question: Nudity" tag))

(Background: Complete toy virgin until now, vaginal user, never took anything more than fingers with three fingers (estimated 2 inch diameter) being the usual max until working with a M/M Tyv this week)

Been working on being able to take Tyv's knot, and tonight was the furthest yet.

Apologies in advance for not knowing exact muscles bUT had a bit of pain (about a 2 on a 1-10 scale) getting the shaft past the g-spot section where there's that "bend" / "cliff-like angle" transition between the enterance and deeper into the vagina which I expected and was able to work through over the course of about 20 mins or so, thus hitting the knot. Once it got past that "bend" bit, Tyv was able to lock into me as if knotted even though I was only touching the top of the knot.

Over the next 40 mins or so I was able to slowly work the knot in, with medium pain both just past the enterance and around the tip of Tyv inside me (about a 3-4 pain-wise). The further in the knot got, the more the pain built to where I'd have to stop and start in trying to work it in (again, as I expected - now hitting about a 5-6 pain). I knew I was pushing my body to new personal extremes and was likely going to bleed a bit, but being not too bothered by the pain over the pleasure nor the blood knowing it should be pretty mild I kept going at a 'yellow' pace and was eventually able to get the knot in basically all the way.

It definitely wasn't a 'pop' of going in (guessing that will take a bit of work to get to - but was able to have that sensation with the shaft once getting past the g-spot area so yay! that feels Hella Nice(tm) at least lol) but as soon as it was all the way in, there was a circular pain not at the enterance, but within the super dense / thick muscles deeper inside and closest to the anal area basically pushing into the glutes from the inside (about a 7 in pain that would shoot up to a 9 or even 10 within seconds) to the point where brain was basically calling 'red' and i'd have to pop the knot back out and just rest with the shaft for a bit before trying again, leading to the same results, eventually deciding that was the personal limit for now.

In cleaning up in the light of the bathroom, I sure enough noticed a bit of blood smeared on inner thigh hands, and to the touch getting a light pink mix of blood fluids similar to light spotting / "himilayan salt pink" color. I also noticed some mild period-cramp like pains in the lower uterus area, but those have since faded by now and just left an (understandably ngl) bruised feeling like i'd been kicked in the gnards but not enough to actually be any real bother or concern lol.

With all of this in mind, questions are:

1. Is the g-spot area "shaft lock" bit normal?

2. Is the deeper-muscle pain circle just something to work out with time and practice or a sign of a body's hard limit?

3. I don't feel concerned at all about most of the pain bleeding bruised feeling, but is there anything I'm missing / glancing over where I should be concerned?

4. Was thinking about taking a few days off to let body rest and recover. Anything I should expect / look out for during that time? (bruising / more possible spotting / etc)

5. Best way to work on that deeper muscle stretch / other general knotting advice?

Outside of the more extreme pain ofc I'd still give this a 12/10 experience - definitely love the stretch of the shaft challenge of the knot and it overall felt divine through and through! 💖💕
