Full of questions today. Pre-seed?

[geek96]

Anyone use pre-seed? I am thinking of ordering it to try since we plan on having sex everyday during the fertile window this month which I am sure will be difficult.

[KaraOrNot]

We have in the past, but my RE actually doesn't recommonend any lube.

[mrssandro]

We user pre conceive plus both times we where successful. To me doesn't hurt. It's a tad expensive though.

[VillainV]

Yeah, I made the mistake of telling H how expensive it was once, and it completely turned him off from ever using it. He didn't want to feel like he HAD to perform or else it was a waste of money. So we didn't ever use it.

I don't think it would hurt to use it. Just don't tell your H how much it costs...

[littlemisschatty]

We use it, but not as much as per the instructions at all. So its lasted a lot longer than it seems. We just need a little to get "started" sometimes lol

I just bought Conceive Plus for $22 for a 2.5 oz tube. It is expensive, but I'd pay 10 times that if I knew it really would help.

I'd heard awhile ago that some people use canola oil as lube, which is supposed to be sperm friendly. We actually tried it, and got pregnant on the first cycle of canola oil, lol. The pregnancy didn't work out, but it may be a cheaper option to try, if you can get passed the weirdness.

I jumped the gun and bought it before I really knew myself. Let's just say that, timed right with O, I have NO need for lube whatsoever. So we use it when I am really dry the other 29 days of my cycle. A little goes a very, very long way. Really good lube is expensive anyways (apparently I'm a lube snob, because I have to order my usual one online - I don't like the stuff in the stores), so the $22 doesn't bother me.

still followed the "injection" instructions. (I think they recommended 2-5cc or something, I did 1-2 cc.) I don't know if that's why that cycle worked.

Are you talking about PreSeed or the other one mentioned in this thread? Because I really don't remember my bottle saying anything about injecting it; in fact, I think it said the opposite, to use normally. Hm.

[ladygrey]

We got pregnant the first month we used it; not sure if that's a coincidence or not...

[HoneySpider]

We used it our last 2 cycles of trying...obviously got pg the 2nd cycle but of course don't know if it factored in. I don't think it hurts to try. Like others said though, a little goes a long way....I bought one box, used it both cycles and still had some. Worth the $20 or whatever it cost.

[HoneySpider]

I used the applicator but to be honest I hated the feeling...it always seemed to gush right out even when I didn't use a lot.

Come to think of it, I don't think we had sex all the many times the last few cycles, maybe that's why it lasted so long. Ha.

[berbles]

Applicator?? LOL

I noticed a box of free samples at the RE office a few weeks ago, so I snagged a handful. Even though we're not TTC until ~Feb. But they're just little packets (think individual ibuprofen sample). Speaking of which - I should probably take them out of my purse, huh?

[littlemisschatty]

We dont use the applicator, we just use a tiny bit externally on him

[tarheels]

Ah, I've figured it out. It comes in two forms of packaging: just a regular bottle like shampoo or anything else, and then I think measured packets with an applicator? Can't remember, but that must be what you others have and I just have the bottle.

[HoneySpider]

I have what swizz has.

[rosetyler]

I used the sample that came with my OPKs this month, and, well...

ETA and TMI: I don't necessarily credit this with anything, but sometimes H, erm, takes his sweet time, and this definitely helped in those instances.

[geek96]

I ran it by DH to make sure he was cool with using it. It is so lame that I am way excited to order this when I get home.

[bonkers412]

I just got the pre-filled applicators of conceive plus this month. Haven't used it yet. This post makes me hopeful!!

[countthestars]

I had the kind Swizz had. It worked for us on either the 1st or 2nd month (I don't remember when I bought it). May not have been what worked, but it's a fairly good lube either way. I did not use the dispensers, just used it normally.

[winecheery]

Huh. It seems to be oddly coincidental that most people on here have had success with it...

[Cricket0619]

I just got the same as swizz. We tried it todaybformthe first time. I didn't use the applicator, just applied it to me and him.

[Cheesecake]

I use what swizz has and no success so far. I do inject it, but indeed use way way less than suggested. It still lubes me up just fine :-)
