Re: Woke up to....(not for the prudish...)
I'm interested to see responses to this. I'll be brave and answer.
I have a rabbit that I bought when my husband was deployed. Doesnt see much action now, but that was fun.
Besides that I'm more entry level. I really like this *** ring (can I even say that on here?!!) that goes on my husband but has a vibrating portion for me. Speaking of, I need to get this out again!

Lost my dear husband, October 3, 2012. You are the bear of my heart dear, and nothing can take that away.
Kellyrn, I think I'm in love with you. I wouldn't have thought to post this question up here and you're openness makes me giggle, which is hard to do so early in the morning.
I've always been pretty open about my sexuality and have to admit that I've owned a toy or two in my time. What military wife hasn't? Haha.
For a beginner, I would recommend something simple with not too many bells and whitles and most importantly, not too big!
My favorite toy was a waterproof slim vibrator. Too bad that darn thing finally wore out during a deployment.
ETA: I forgot about the ring! Definitely get the ring. It's really fun and it's great that you can use it with DH rather than instead of DH. :::rummages through drawers looking for said ring:::: Tonight just got more interesting...
Haha, what channel were you watching??? That is quite the wakeup. The only thing we have tried was the vibrating ring thing also. Which I didn't find all that great. Or maybe we were using it wrong. Who knows. I just felt like it did little unless it was touching me the whole time which didn't happen.
I have only been to a "shop" once. It was a horrible experience. I went with a friend to pick up something for a bach. party. I was so nervous and clumsy. We were looking at some sort of carboard pin the tail on the donkey (except not a donkey if you get my drift), and I backed into this display that was a pyramid of giant pink vibrators of some sort. Maybe dolphins or rabbits or something some animal. Anways the display was like ten feet tall, they all started falling crashing to the floor and literally I swear some started vibrating right there. So there I was in this busy little shop trying to quickly pick up these vibrating pink rabbits. With two store clerks rushing over to help. Gaaaa So because of this I refuse to ever set foot in one again. Anyone have any good websites that are more for the timid and not too crazy?

P/SAIF Welcome
DH and I have a drawer of sex toys, lol. My favorite, hands down, is the Hitachi Magic Wand vibrator. A favorite as far as insertables go (lol) is a slim g-spot vibrator.
Vibrating c-rings don't do much for me at all, but DH likes them on occasion.
I've actually bought all of my sex toys in person at a shop, but I have heard that Adam&Eve is a good site. FWIW, I got my Hitachi on Amazon, LOL.

LMAO.... I have no shame...I have a drawer full of toys. My DH isn't really into it, god have I tried to push, but he is kinda prudish. Definitely recommended

~~ Bump Bestie/ IRL Lynn0926 ~~
I had a couple vibrators while I was in college - but they died soon after and I never replaced them. Hadn't thought about it in a while - but I do kind of miss my BOB...ha!!
My first trip to the toy store was with a few girlfriends in college - made it much more fun and less weird to be able to laugh and giggle together about the stuff.

7DPO Progesterone: low. CD3 BW: normal, HSG: clear
DX: severe MFI (low all 3) and low T. Undergoing replacement therapy.
Toy parties can be a lot of fun. Lots of lotions and potions and things that go buzz in the night.
I've owned a few BOBs in my day, but DH it a little intimidated by them, so most of them have gone away.
Bababaha! I am just imagining you waking up to that!
Umm, I used to host those parties and they are a blasty blast! I also used to own a B.O.B. (battery operated boyfriend) but threw it out when I got married (DH doesn;t like them, he says why have one when I can do it for ya). The parties are a hoot and a half and I too have been thinking about going to one just to spice things up in the bedroom! With IF stealing some of the romance in bed, some fun toys might spice things back up!
TTC since March/April 2010

I am not shy at all. We have lots of toys, lotions and potions. I had a good friend that did the parties and I pretty much supported her. We have a swing and a fancy chair. I have to say we are pretty wild in the bedroom. IF has not taken that away completely. I have seen the commercials and I have actually bought from it before. We have pretty much tried them all and I think my favorite is my jack rabbit. It's pretty intimidating but it gets the job done. Not huge but lots of buttons and stuff.
I don't like the *** rings too much. They just don't do it for me.
OMG! I've never seen a sex toy infomercial.
I do own a few sex toys. They have been in the "toy box" for a while. My DH's, boss's, wife sell them so she of course gave us a few.
