So for those that like a little help down there but don't want to harm your man's army from doing their job, I found an alternative to preseed that is not only cheaper but it's all natural, so it's nice for those with sensitive skin issues.
Olive Oil
Coconut Oil
Pure, unscented Cocoa Butter
Mix equal parts together and store in a jar with a lid -- I use a mason jar. It's a great natural lubricant (don't use with a condom or anything like that thought for those TTA), but I also use it as an all over lotion and a massage oil. It's GREAT for dry skin!

This is beyond ridiculous. All of it.
I use fresh garlic in cooking every day, you don't see me telling women to stick it in their hoo-has.
Good grief.
Wow, don't you think that was kind of uncalled for?

Yeah, I had too. And my husband had heard of people using coconut oil. I think he found it on a men's sexual health website lol. We've been using it for months and we like it a lot and I haven't experienced any issues with it and I have really sensitive skin and he has psoriasis, so we have to be super careful about what we use. He can't have scented aaaaaanything or else he gets really irritated, so that's why we use it for lotion too.

yeah there are a lot of things that are all natural that I would never put near my girlie bits.. are you one of those girls that used a cucumber as a sex toy in highschool.. no really a girl did that at my highschool..
also just because she has 3 kids doesn't mean that this stuff worked.. as was said.. maybe she is just fertile.. hell my co-worker KU'd his wife twice on birth control. there are super fertile people out there.
Ew, you just reminded me at my school there was a girl famous for hot dogs! Memories....
Couldn't agree more
And apple seeds contain cyanide...
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.....this literally made me laugh out loud! Not doing much work either......
I agree....I also agree with PP and think that you are not who you say you are. Someone that says the ridiculous things that you say cannot be for real. I say troll.
OH! and this is my 500th post- What, what!
I knew that joining TTCAL was going to be great for giving/getting support.
I had no freaking idea it would be this entertaining, though. Thank you for making another lackluster afternoon at the office go by quickly!
ETA: I think we'll stick with preseed for now, though!

Can you prove to me that it is NOT safe for TTC? If so, I would like to know about that because it's one of the only things my partner and I have used that doesn't irritate both of our skin issues. While none have been written by a doctor, I've seen many things about using coconut oil and olive oil -- as you can see, other posters have as well, so if you can give me evidence to show that it is harmful for TTC then that would be most helpful. Thank you.

OMG!! lol yeah this girl bragged about the cucumber and then cried whenever someone mentioned it
Congrats! I canNOT see or hear the words "what what! " without finishing with "IN THE BUTT!" I am four, I know. But Butters on South Park is just so cute!!
Siggy warning
Thank you!!! I've been thinking this too!
Do you have any proof that is IS safe??? As a member of this sh!tty club, you should know that we don't need another reason that "could" cause us to lose another child. Anything outside of this is irresponsible.
Can you prove that it IS safe for TTC???

He's a regular OB/GYN that's part of the main hospital in our city and I told him about it and he said it shouldn't be a problem and he didn't know of anything that would suggest it would HURT us TTC or give me any issues. And like I mentioned earlier in the thread, it's been nice for especially my partner because of his skin problems. (Psoriasis and general sensitivity and I break out easily too.)

Uhh...THIS. I'm not sticking anything in my vag until my doctor gives me the green light. Which I doubt she would for this. And as Grace mentioned, you REALLY don't want to upset the delicate Ph balance in there. So I wouldn't chance it.
I just want to add that if you stick fresh garlic in your lady bits during a yeast infection, after 2-3 days it goes away. I had a bad one during my pregnancy and that's what my MW recommended. It worked like a charm. Lol.
Question?? why do you always refer to your husband as your partner? thats just a little strange to me...
JellyBean, I think we can all agree that you keep using your home made concoction, since that seems to be working for you, and we'll all carry on with our proven-safe Preseed.
