I am a bit to be honest, i really wanted this baby to arrive well before he went off to sea. Seems i was doing it all wrong! [further muppet emoticon]

Playingthewaitinggame · 10/06/2008 17:25

Just cos its expensive so I am not sure its worth it. I remember squack posting an article that said KY Jelly reduced motility (sp?) of sperm and I know what we currently use is not sperm friendly. Its just nice to use a bit of lube sometimes, particuarly in foreplay but obviously I dont want it to reduce our fertility.

Nat will never let you last that long Playing. Unless you have will power made of steel.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 10/06/2008 17:26

Aww, really feel for you. Have you got a better idea of when you are due yet? When does he go?

kayzisexpecting · 10/06/2008 17:26

Any idea when you'll get a scan LG&T?

Playingthewaitinggame · 10/06/2008 17:27

I know the pressure will be huge. However, I am going to try to resist. I won't believe a BFN, so will just keep testing if I start early and it will cost s fortune. We'll see how long I last

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 10/06/2008 17:28

Playing, like I said I have heard good things about pre-seed, but then who is to say they wouldn't have got pregnant with out it? Do you not fancy the real egg white?!! Sorky has a good aim with a water pistol apparently - LOL that's your foreplay LOL

It might be worth getting some, nothing stopping you using it even if you got pregnant straight away/soon, well except the sea sickness...!

Playingthewaitinggame · 10/06/2008 17:29

LG&T, sorry that you're DH will be away when baby comes.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 10/06/2008 17:29

eBay cheapies, they don't cost a lot, I think I was getting packs of 10 for less than £3, you can't go wrong with that!

kayzisexpecting · 10/06/2008 17:29

I got pg and we were using KY jelly. Had no idea it was unfriendly to sperm.

Playingthewaitinggame · 10/06/2008 17:32

LOL at sea sickness (until I get it myself ). Don't know but £7-8 for only 6/8 sachets seems a hell of a lot. I mean, we would go through a couple every cycle.

lardylumps · 10/06/2008 17:32

Playing I have used it.

It comes in a little pipett and you break the end off put the thin end of the tube up and squeeze the ball.

dont put the whole lot up there are it does take away some of the feeling and can make it a squelchy affair....

Playingthewaitinggame · 10/06/2008 17:33

this was Squacks link about lubricants.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 10/06/2008 17:34

STEP AWAY FROM THE LUBE wet patch.... urgh, one of the things I don't miss about fucking in bed! LOL

Playingthewaitinggame · 10/06/2008 17:35

Well, maybe I will do without this cycle and re-evaluate next cycle. Not sure I can justify the expensive if I don't "need" it.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 10/06/2008 17:36

Joking aside, I remember you saying that you have quite good EWCM, didn't you? I wouldn't have thought you'd need it if you do...

kayzisexpecting · 10/06/2008 17:36

I might have to follow Nats lead and not fuck in bed. I always end up having to sleep in it.

Or make DH wear a condom

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 10/06/2008 17:38

LOL Can you imagine that convo? "Put it on" "Why? You are already pregnant" "I don't want the wet patch" LOL

lardylumps · 10/06/2008 17:38

Only need to use it if no EWCM playing so you may not need it at all.....

Playingthewaitinggame · 10/06/2008 17:38

Yeah, I do have quite good EWCM. Not sure I need it, it would just be nice to have the option. But, at that price I am really not convinced.

kookykid · 10/06/2008 17:39

Hi again,
Sorry for briefness of last post. Had just found AF and was a bit gutted and just wanted to tell someone. It's not much of a surprise as sure I was pretty sure I wasn't, but there's always a little part of you that hopes against hope, isn't there??!
Anyway, fingers crossed next cycle will be mine.

Glask, am really pleased for you! What a lovely birthday present!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 10/06/2008 17:39

I think it is a bit of a gimmick.

Am sure there must be other lubes that are sperm friendly, failing that, only use lube at other times of the month.

lardylumps · 10/06/2008 17:40

Have I missed something Has glaskham got a BFP

kayzisexpecting · 10/06/2008 17:40

Really sorry Kooky!

That may be our conversation next time we GOF Nat!!
