If wearing the tampon feels weird to you, it may not be in high enough. You shouldn't feel it at all if it's in correctly. If you are using tampons for the first time, maybe try using a small size until you get the hang of inserting it. Try putting one leg up on the toilet ( with the lid closed ;) ) and then inserting the tampon. Pushing it in until your fingers , that are pushing the tampon in, touch the outside of your vagina. You shouldn't feel it once it's in. Plastic applicators are the easiest to use, don't bother with the cardboard ones
