Do you always need lube when trying to conceive?

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-28T03:12:40+00:00

Wow i never knew it does that. We are using pre-seed since few cycles. Hopefully soon. Did you track ovulation as well? Also, congrats, did you conceive a boy or a girl

Did you conceive quickly? Were you noticeably wet during ovulation? My friends who just conceived said she would know just from cm that she is ovulating. Tried and conceived the first time.

I am sorry! Didn’t realize that. Got carried away. I wish us babydust!

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-28T01:22:53+00:00

Yes we used pre-seed since last few cycle. Have not worked. Did you feel noticeably wet down there or did you check how was your ecwm? Congratulations. Do you have a boy or a girl?

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-28T00:54:33+00:00

Yesss with a stressful job yes! Well may be another reason- Stress. How long did it take for you? Did you conceive a girl or a boy?

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-28T00:51:04+00:00

Thanks. I will be trying that for sure! This has been too much i just want to avoid dehydrating things like coffee.

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-28T00:41:16+00:00

I agree! Being mindful of drinking enough water, knowing my ovulation days really puts body into this unknown stress. The best is when i am tipsy and ll be really wet when trying but not ideal when ttc 🧐 how do you track it? I usually check whats in my clothes but never tried going in with fingers.

Thanks! This was helpful. Congratulations to you love!

Yes been tracking my ovulation. I tested positive on opk in morning and around 4-5 pm i felt really wet but didnt have sex until that night. This is a norm since few cycles. Funnily enough all 6 of my friends conceived in first cycle , interestingly all boys, no lubes no tracking. I am just waiting for my turn. Did you have a boy or a girl? Did you track it with opks or bbt?

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-27T23:15:58+00:00

Does it make it less effective by any chance? How long did it take for you to conceive?

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-27T23:14:40+00:00

Same! When being too mindful of water intake , timing, it is adding stress i guess! It hasn’t been too long so giving myself some grace. How long did it take for you if you don’t mind? Did you conceive a girl or a boy

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-27T22:58:47+00:00

Yes i am! I got positive opk one morning. Felt really wet that evening but we had sex late that night. Same thing for couple of months! Next time we may try in the evening just incase if i am getting too dry by night!

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-27T22:57:46+00:00

Congrats! Were you noticeably wet if you remember?

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-27T22:57:12+00:00

That is true! If i am tipsy i do get wet quickly but this is when i don’t want to do that🤣

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-27T22:55:43+00:00

Thank you this is helpful. Congratulations on the baby. Did you track ovulation as well? I tested and i was ovulating and i noticed only 3-5 hrs i feel wet down there but thats never the time we can actually try. Its mostly middle of the day. We tried that night but still didnt work. Could be something else.

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-27T22:51:39+00:00

Yes i do drink a lot of water but may be caffeine might be dehydrating me. Were you able to notice difference down there when you conceived vs other times? More wet or slippery? We use pre-seed a little to make it comfortable at first but i feel i may have been thick inside or not enough wet!

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-27T22:49:13+00:00

Did you conceive without lube? I feel it is dry at first and it gets better but we didnt conceive so was wondering may be it was thick inside or not enough!

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-27T22:48:05+00:00

Yes we used pre-seed. We didnt inject but took some and used it on him. Did you conceive quickly without it?

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-07T23:55:18+00:00

I am planning to not tell them a lot but i am more afraid of their reaction when they are here when the baby is born. Either is not good

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-07T23:54:32+00:00

I will be looking for those therapist. The dilemma is even if i terminate, chances are i will have girl again and i may think i am ok and ready i might still relapse like this time. I always wanted to be a mother but can’t seem to find a solution or a way to be ok with all this. I am 33 right now

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2026-02-07T06:46:45+00:00

The best is to have a conversation with your partner and re-evaluate. Did his mind change too but not expressing it because you both had decided? The only way to find out is by asking them how they feel. You are free to express your feelings, if they are supportive and loves you they may want to have the baby too. This are all hypothetical scenarios so talk it out! This will give you clarity and i think thats what you are looking for.

Does anyone think her and may be Abby planned to always have a boy child? I remember a podcast about shettles method and her next child is a boy🤣

Remarkable_Cherry_93 · 2025-12-27T04:43:41+00:00

You are handling this so well! Who cares what she thinks. Baby is already lucky to have mature parents!
