Thinking of suggesting it to max opportunities without putting pressure on for sex. Husband has been pretty stressed lately and I don’t want the pressure to do the deed to affect our sex life. I’ve seen there are expensive kits made for the job, but also all sorts of syringes on amazon.
What is others experience?

4 successful pregnancies using the "come in a pot, squirt in in with a 2ml syringe when fertile" method. Laid on back for an hour afterwards. Tracked fertility by observing cervical mucous for 2 of the pregnancies and with a kit for the other two. Pregnant each time in fewer than 4 months.
All the good fortune in the world to you if you give it a go.

A couple on TikTok used a calpol syringe. It worked for them.

Hi there, we use stuff provided but he clinic. Maybe a traditional pharmacy can supply?

Our syringes have an attachment at the end, a very long but small tube to "deliver at the door".

Tried 1 cycle so far.

We tried a few cycles using a Tily Blooms kit off Amazon. Didn’t get anywhere. First cycle using TwoPlus and I’m currently 6 weeks (so definitely not out of the woods yet considering I’ve had multiple losses). TwoPlus is very pricey though!

I think doing it into a collection cup might also be a bit of pressure. But less energy than full blown sex.
I have a diaphragm as birth control, just ended up using that the once on ovulation day and now pregnant!

Little bit of hand play together, then scooped what I could, plonked it in and went about my day.
