Moon Cups


Just wondered if anyone has tried moon cups after bding to keep the spermies in longer? I read somewhere that some people do this and I'm just curious!

I don't even own one. I know they're eco friendly but I get a bit grossed out at the thought of using one during AF. But if it helps with ttc then I'd definitely invest in one!

Any info greatly appreciated!

Me! in a roun about kind of way......

Well since last cycle we decided very last minute to try we got BD'ing asap...but after a day or two my OH wee guy was getting a bit sore(I have my pre-seed for this cycle!) we had planned to BD before he went to work the next day...which is 6am. Me not being a morning gal...my alarm goes off for me to do my temp then I go pee, then back to bed until my other alram wakes me for work.
Well since he was a bit tender, I really wasnt in the mood at that time he "you knowed" into a container and when I went to pee put it in my mooncup and put it in. Went back to bed, put pillows under my bum and went back to sleep.

God it sounds terrible...

But it was soemthing to try....

elamxie, you are a girl after my own heart!! I love the fact you're being pro-active and doing something different- but very clever, in my book.

You go girl, well done you!! Hope you get that bfp pronto!!
