Preseed/ConceivePlus

[Sanky]

What are people's thoughts on Preseed/Conceive Plus? Has anyone used them, and if so
A) Is one better than the other
B) Did it work?!

We have been TTC for nine months and I am getting a bit bothered now. Haven't sought medical advice yet (thought I'd give it at least a year?) but have gone from just casually DtD to taking it more seriously and now all sorts of old wives tales as well.

I have rarely used lube in the past as I've never needed to and always found it yucky on the rare occasions it's been used (years ago). But on the other hand if it does actually work then clearly it's a good thing. Do you just put some on yourselves and get on with DtD? Sounds pretty clinical but needs must!

we used pre-seed. the first time (post miscarriage) i was tracking my cycle using a thermometer every morning and used pre-seed. got pregnant in the first month. second time I just used pre-seed and it took 2 months i think. If I can remember the woman has to almost inject it and leave it for a bit before the act rather than use as regular lube. some friends who had been trying for longer periods had some success on it too.

@Sanky I have no idea whether it 'worked' but I found conceive plus a nice lube to use when TTC our second. With our first we didn't use anything and got pregnant first cycle. It took three months with the second and I used conceive plus second and third cycle. No harm in giving a fertility lube a go - there are no special instructions with CP (as far as I remember) you just use it in whatever quantity you want. It is a bit more watery than viscous so isn't gross or anything in consistency and it felt a lot nicer than standard lubes. I didn't get any irritation from it or stinging it felt gentle. Only downside to using it was the cost, it's a bit on the pricey side, but some people swear it has really helped them and I can't see the harm in giving it a go :)

Thanks. Well we have gone out and bought some this morning. We'll have sex later and will use it. Let's see how it goes. I think I prefer the idea of using it internally rather than slathering it on like regular lube. And if it's icky then perhaps we will stop.
