Pre seed success?

Cycle 9 TTC and I'm just hitting ovulation time!
Read some mixed reviews about pressed and thought I'd give it a go this cycle.
Waiting for DH to come home from work so I can try it out. Praying this is our month after a chemical last cycle.
Anyone got any preseed stories to share?

Personally it didn't help me, I conceived the cycle I didnt use it, but I know plenty of other ladies on here who have been very successful

Can I ask what presser is? Hmm

Mumofawarrior12 · 13/05/2017 06:03

Pressed

We used it and got pregnant on our third month using it (6 cycles ttc altogether)

We used conceive plus applicators... they worked first time! Am now 13+6
Good luck!

Congratulations!

Pre seed is a fertility lubricant which is meant to help the sperm swim to the egg! (Apparently!)

Will be trying it tonight for the first time, as I fell asleep early last nigh!

I see people say this a lot, but if you look at the packet the company themselves are a bit more modest in their claims. They say it's a lubricant that (unlike most others) doesn't actively hinder sperm. So if you want to use lubricant (and lots of people do, especially when TTC and so maybe having sex that isn't always motivated by pure lust!) then it's a much better choice than most others - but this widespread belief that it's actually better than using nothing doesn't seem to be proved to the point that the company can claim it on the packaging.

Yup, used it on the natural-attempt-after-failed-ivf, and result is sleeping next to me right now.
(Used along with lying down after sex, Mooncup, shedload of supplements, taking the immunes drugs leftover from my ivf cycle...)

Aw congratulations. So happy for you that you got that BFP and now a gorgeous little bundle of joy.
My TWW has officially started today. Let see how long I can stay sane before I start symptom spotting. can feel a water injection coming on too, so already not feeling great!
