Using Lime and having a hard time getting pregnant

[6bluewant1pink]

I have been using Lime douche and think it is making it hard for me to conceive. Does anyone know if it does? Should i just go back to using Rephresh instead?

I'm going to talk woman to woman here...

GIRL, I have *heard* of people getting pg with lime. I know someone with a 5th boy conceived with lime. I prob tried it 6 times back in the IG hey-day and NO baby and sore unit.

This stuff makes it incredibly difficult to conceive and makes your vagina feel terrible. I would acijel if you are sold on a low pH product and the rephresh is good too to always be buffering your vagina with its magical ability to bring pH to an optimal level.

If you are sold on douches, there is nothing wrong with the store bought one. I think its a pretty good idea if you have alot of CM.

Can i order acijel in the US? oh yes the lime is making BD hurt i am so dry {sorry tmi} BD is no fun. I use some lime before BD and a little after BD.

I used rephresh (a little every day) and added 3 lime drop to DH's sample!
It worked for me!! When I added the lime drops PH of the sample did not go under 5. I also used conceive plus before and after before inserting the sample.

can anyone confirm how you actually make a lime douche please? is it ok to use 50/50 lime juice and cooled boiled water or does it have to be distilled? Thanks! I live in spain and don't think there is a douche you can buy ready made here?

Not to bust any balls, but I have just noticed historically when people say they are getting pg with lime, they have other "regular" attempts in there as well.

Its a valid choice, but definitely more comfortable and easier ways to go about accomplishing the same purpose.

Acijel is online from NZ

Wilma is conceive plus ok to use for a girl sway?

[Peanut41]

I would stay away from any lube that is sperm safe or helps with fertility because when trying to sway girl we want to make our vagina a more hostile environment per say. Instead it's recommended to use something like Sylk. Or if you drop the lime and use the rephresh instead you might not even need lube since it's probably the lime that is making you like the Sahara Desert :)

peanut41 OMG this past cycle BD was so uncomfortable totally not enjoyable! I am dropping the Lime and going back to RePhresh! I may do Sylk as well. Is it ok to use rephresh right before BD or do i have to use it hours before?

What attracted me in the conceive plus that's it contains magnsium and calcium ions. I googled it and a lot of people conceived a girl while using it. BUT it's sperm friendly so I don't know if you should use it, it just tried and it worked....Could have also been my diet offcourse.

Do not use conceive plus with lime or rephresh, it causes a chemical reaction that can kill sperm.

I strongly advise against conceive plus for pink swayers.

Agree with all of this.

Lime sucks in a lot of ways and we are getting decent results without it.

If us gotta douche, massengil vinegar and water is a fine option

Then I must have been very lucky to conceive my girl!! Maybe it was because of the chemical reaction and the killing of the sperm that swayed pinkbig time for me (less swimmers is more chance of a girl)

[atomic sagebrush]

Maybe! :) I'm just so happy for you!

Hi Ladies,

I used lime and ended up with many problems. It swelled my veins and, after four healthy full term babies, I ended up with chronic pelvic pain and two miscarriages. Please please please be VERY careful if you decide to go this route. The chronic pain is horrible and it seems that the inflammation will last the rest of my life though acupuncture helps a little. I wish you so much luck for your girls- I would probably just try the other, safer methods rather than injecting such a harsh acid. Best!! XXXX
