Literally lost the condom!

[Practisingparent]

Hi. Cant believe Im putting this out there... My dh and I had sex this morning and used a condom, but when he withdrew, it was no where to be seen. I have searched the bed and made an amateur attempt to locate it internally, with no luck. I am hoping it will find its way out today. Any advice?

If you don't want to get pregnant and are relying on the condom as your sole source of contraception then you need to get to the chemist for the MAP sharpish.

If it's not found, you need to put your to one side and see the doctor to see if they can 'locate' it...

I've done this before!

Lie down on the bed with your shoulders on a pillow, legs akimbo.

Relax your pelvic muscles as if you're having a wee (so obv best to make sure you have an empty bladder). As you relax, insert your fingers and move them around your vagina in a circular motion. You'll find it, you need to be relaxed.

Have fun!

Oh yeah, and wot Fliss said about MAP

Thanks for your replies. Have tried your advice Lula, with great success so thankyou so much. In terms of pregnancy, not too worried as we were thinking of trying in a few months anyway. Is there anything mn'ers dont know?

I just love mumsnet!

I can't believe one of the things mn can help with is locating a lost condom inside a woman
