I'm going to try it next month if this month doesn't work out. I never have much CM, so I'm hoping it might help. I've got it pending in my Amazon cart right now....,.

Totally bought some this week after someone posted about a BFP they got using it. The reviews are good and it's not THAT expensive (or so I am telling myself). I figure it's worth a shot.
We used it when TTC the few times we were able to try... The tube goes quickly, but DH didn't mind it at all. We got it off of amazon as well. We have even done the instead cups.. oh yea.. like @thistle8677 said... try everything at least once. :P
Haha, I just ordered some today off of Amazon BEFORE reading this post! I'm getting everything ready for my first medicated cycle and have been told that I'll get all "dried up" from the medication (sounds fun, right?!?). So I'm going to give the extra lube a shot. I used to produce copious amounts of EWCM (often all cycle long!) but don't seem to be producing as much lately and am worried the medication will make it worse. Reading the reviews on Amazon is very inspiring - almost EVERY review claims they got pregnant on the FIRST cycle they used pressed. Coincidence or not? Who knows! But I'm willing to try all of the things! Let's all get lubed up!!!

I haven't used Preseed, but we did use Astroglide TTC this month. I liked it. It didn't feel weird. I'm always leery of lube because somehow I tend to get more UTIs when I use it. No problems here though! I'll use it again.
Preseed and the other one(pink box?) are the only ones safe to use while TTC. I used Preseed religously while TTC#1 and was successful. We use it now when EWCM is subpar and Mucinex isn't working out. Good luck! fyi - a little goes a long way and some people just use a dab on the finger but I've always used the applicators (about 1/4 full)

We use it religiously when TTC and it worked to get pregnant w/DS and my most recent pregnancy that ended in MC (or maybe it was the vitex, OTC progesterone, acupunture or some combination). In any event, it's a good lube and we just use the dab on the finger method, no applicator here. I say go for it!
Re: Pre-seed anyone?
Haha! Good luck, I want to try to too!
