Pre-Seed users....a fun poll

[requiressnacks]

I bought Pre-Seed this cycle for fun.  I was really surprised that it came with these odd, plastic applicators. I'm just curious - who out there uses them?  Tell me how you Pre-Seed.

[requiressnacks]

Personally, I tried the applicator just to see what it was all about and I found it to be very uncomfortable. It felt sort of "sharp" (for lack of a better word). I was surprised it didn't have a rounded edge for ease of application. Probably won't be using again.

I use the applicators. I have no way of knowing if the preseed was a factor, but I used it by the book with both pregnancies and had great success. I will be using it again when we get off the bench.

Used the applicator, but didn't use the recommended amount. It was TOO much. I used less and was fine with it.

Used last time ttc with no applicator. Haven't used in a long time.

I only use the applicators for a few days after I get a +OPK. I figure a little extra pre-seed up there can't hurt. When I was TTC #1, we used pre-seed and at that time the had a version that came without applicators. I liked that one better. I'm really not a fan of pre-seed so we only use it during the first part of my cycle. During the TWW, it's back to KY.

We use it without the applicator if needed.

This was our first time using preseed and we used the applicators. I'm sure once we run out we will use it without them though.

We use it like regular lube and switch it out for KY outside of FW. That way it has lasted us for 8 months TTC.

I hope I don't need to buy a new tube...

[cheezee]

I use the applicator but not the full amount...way too much!

[wilmaroo]

We use it when we're going for "quick encounters". I use the applicator and use about 1/2 of what is recommended. Works well for us.

[wirt2cute]

I have used the applicators, but most of the time we don't. Like pp's said a little goes a long way.

I only used the applicators once. I hated the process of using the applicator and I agree it was sharp and uncomfortable. But I like PreSeed, I normally use lube so we just switched it out and now always use a little PreSeed. I've had this tube since April or March so it does last if you don't follow the directions.

Phew! Glad I'm not the only one who thought this.

Overall, I like pre-seed as a product. Just not a fan of the applicators.

I hate those applicators and feel they make you waste product. I've only used it externally and agree with PPs that less is more. DNW slip-n-slide.

All of this.  A little goes a long way.

I used Pre-seed, applicators give waaaaay too much. It really goes a long way. Use it like regular lube.

I miss you all too! I'm trying to be a better lurker. Hugs and kisses. 

[risscaboobs]

We used Conceive Plus with the pre-filled applicators. I liked it okay. Not uncomfortable.

[teachermomtobe]

We use it like regular lube. Externally on both of us and if it's really needed I put some on my fingers and put it internally. I never tried the applicators because people said it was too much.

Random lurker but + 100%! I use the tiniest amount but the applicators are horrible. "Sharp" is right....why not rounded?

[icedtea]

This question makes me feel better. We got it and I opened it one night, only to be totally baffled by the applicators. We ended up just not using it and I've been eyeing it with confusion since then. I feel like I have to at least try, but it is odd.

[thelittleredm]

I use the applicators. It's a little odd but not any different than a tampon in my mind, except that it doesn't stay in.
