Post Sex Rituals

HoneyRose31 · April 2014

I was just wondering if you all had any post sex rituals you follow while TTC. For example, is there a certain amount of time you wait after sex to use the bathroom, do you prop yourself up on a pillow afterwards?

ImJessesGirl · April 2014

I roll over, or hop off, then go pee. I have had too many UTIs in the past and that shit is painful. I do whatever I can to avoid them. I still have to convince myself not to prop my hips or something because I just feel like it should work, lol.

Sacrifice a goat. Male goat for a boy, obviously.

This seems like the kind of thread where we might learn too much about someone and can't un-learn it.

Like storing a used tampon in your sex drawer. I'm still scarred from that one.

nowsgood · April 2014

I lay in bed for up to 15min and then go pee and shower. I'm scared of UTIs! I've had one too many in my life, so I always shower after... Sometimes it's annoying. Especially if I had just showered before with no plans of having sex.

Sometimes we have ice cream.

Usually just high five/congratulate each other on being awesome, then clean up and bathroom break before sleep.

This:

No. Actually I take an antibiotic to prevent recurring UTI's.

JackoftheBox · April 2014

Shower and pee....

Now i can't un-learn that someone stored a used tampon.... and i will be forever be curious as to why this was done.

AllWeHave · April 2014

+1 for peeing and then showering. No UTI's here!

jrcalhoun · April 2014

Sleep.

Because when you're on your period and must have sex rightthisminute, who wants to waste time walking to the bathroom?? Just tuck that in the drawer next to your sex toys, duh! Just be sure that YOU are the one reaching for the sex toy during that sexcapade!

chaysefaith · April 2014

I usually clean up and go pee. I might roll over for a second first so I don't have a bunch of bodily fluids running down my leg as I walk to the bathroom...

Since you wanted to know.

8411mommy · April 2014

I usually lay there for about 10 minutes and then go to the bathroom.
Get a sip of something to drink and go back to bed..
Lay there and play hay day on my phone
go to sleep

nittanyllama · April 2014

Afraid to say it... I do lay around for like 10-15 minutes, on my stomach because I have a backwards-tilted ute and I read that it could help. I don't put my feet in the air or prop my hips or anything. WebMD and some other reputable websites say staying horizontal for a little might be good. I'm of the mindset that if it helps great and if not then ok. After that I pee immediately, because you know, UTIs.

News article about a 2009 study from the British Medical Journal: "A study of 400 couples in the Netherlands found 27 per cent of women who remained lying down following insemination (IUI) conceived compared with 18 per cent of those who did not."

Our post coital routine goes like this: <br><br>

DH heads to the bathroom and cleans up himself and any sex toys that may have been used. If it's night, I might just roll over and fall asleep. If it's morning I wait until he is done and then get up, pee and clean myslef up.

You shower every time you have sex? Damn, that's commitment.

Not every time probably more like 60/40. Definitely not completely committed.

I'd venture to say that a bigger commitment is making pancakes every single time @nariadraming . That's just nuts.

lizzyp9112 · April 2014

@Joy2611, Same here. I am wired after sex but DH passes right out. I end up reading on my iPad or watching youtube videos while my adrenaline slows down.

@nariadreaming Is it always pancakes or does he ever mix it up with waffles or crepes or something?

I'm usually quite awake after sex while he's like "zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz."

I've read that this part is biological. Same at our house.

BabyCowbell · April 2014

First I log it in FF! Then pee.

We are the opposite. I roll over and go to sleep and H is re-energized.

caitlindenise · April 2014

I just lay there for about 5 minutes then get up and pee.

I am going to tell my husband he better step up his game...

Damn. I'd have sex just for the pancakes sometimes.

What the?!

I hobble with my legs clamped shut to the bathroom to pee.

AlfiesMOM · April 2014

I generally wait a 5-10 minutes but I don't do anything special and then I clean up and I am off to pee!!

I put a tampon up there post-coitus. I can't stand to have globs of semen in my undies for the next twelve hours. Newp.

Seriously?!?

Oh, I've done that! It never works.

I also shared this because I needed an excuse to use the phrase post-coitus.

Wait the tampon thing isn't a joke?

Do you leave it in there? Or just put it in and take it back out? I thought tampons weren't safe to use unless it was your period. And I'd be afraid it would absorb all the spermies?

Didn't mean to sound so appalled. I loathe tampons (team diva cup) so this is extra strange to me :P Also, I just use a small pad/pantiliner after sex.

Have you tried coughing while over the toilet? Or sneeze? lol.

I don't have to explain my art to you, Warren.

you must be the picasso of vaginas.

YellowBag · April 2014

@LindsRockies - I am seeing you in a whole new light today, between this thread and TMI. You may be a little freaky, but I think I like you.

trinitrotoluene · April 2014

We cuddle and lay there for a little bit, then I get up and pee, and we shower together.

ETA: and yes, we shower EVERY time.

JRClaire · April 2014

I get up and pee, clean up, and then lay down again. Sometimes I can sleep but I'm also one of those re-energized by sex, so I usually read on my kindle. Meanwhile my husband just passes out.

Wow...I don't know why this is so scary to me, but it just is! I'm team kegel exercises after sex for sure.

Legit question though, does it effect the sperm?

MCAngel09 · April 2014

BF gets up, cleans off and brings me something to clean up with. If it is the middle of the day, he gets re - energized and ready to go. If it is night, he passes out. Me, well I lay there 10 mins or so then get up to go pee and try to get back in bed for cuddles and sleep.
