anyone use KY lube and get pregnant

hello and congratulations to all you preggos...I've been TTC since August and no luck . Just put 2 and 2 together and read up on the effects of KY on sperm, although too late this cylce to do anything about it. I want to stay hopeful during my 2ww, so wanting feedback on whether any of you ladies became pregnant despite using KY

Re: anyone use KY lube and get pregnant

  • I wouldn't use KY to try and get pregnant. Try something else like pre-seed if you need the lubrication, or try regular Mucinex to help with CM.

  • Or spit. I know it sounds gross...but it gets the job done...
  • I became pregnant while using it. I wasn't aware of its effect on sperm either.

  • I am 5 1/2 weeks along and got pregnant last month while using Astroglide, which I think is pretty much the same thing as KY. I don't make a lot of natural moisture, so lube is a nightstand staple. We use it every time and I still conceived. We'd been trying for 6 months. I don't know if it impacts sperm, but DH's little swimmers got through just fine and did their job. Good luck to you!
  • I got KU despite using a lubricant called Nympho Desire.  For realz, that's what it's called.  I bought it at a sex toy party and decided to use it a few times, including the cyle I got KU.

  • Most Lubes can kill sperm.  If you want to use a lube, go with a sperm-friendly one, like pre-seed.

    Also, two months of TTC is not long.  It can take a normal couple a year to get pregnant.  

    Good luck!

  • I got pregnant with #1 using KY, and #2 using KY.  We got pregnant on the first try with #1, and on our fourth cycle with #2.  But...truth be told, I was beginning to think we should start using preseed...then I POAS and was KU, so no need to consider it further.

    GL!

    The side effects include a 45% chance my baby will be born a nympho.

  • I used a silicon based lube called ID Millennium. It is fantastic stuff! Bought it at a sex toy party! I couldn't find anything on the web either positive or negative on it's effect on sperm; however, it must not have effected them that bad, because we got PG!

  • I recommend pre-seed for anyone ttc. I like it a lot better than KY and will continue to use it even when not ttc.

    Good luck on 2ww!
