Making love

[Angelica]

Ok this may sound like a silly thread but here goes...

Me & the hubby have always used condoms and have only recently stopped as we are TTC.
Sometimes afterwards, i feel wet & can feel fluids dripping out...
Een at times when i have laid still & elevated my hips (as reccommended) i have still felt something drip out!!

Is this normal? My husband thiks it could be my fluids & not neccessarily his?!

Pls advise...

That's completely normal and it is a combination of both of your fluids. The fluid is leftover ejaculate and sperm that is (as strange as this sounds) old or dead.

good luck with the ttc x

Sorry to butt in but talking of fluids, can anyone answer me this? Years ago I was on the pill and when hubby ejaculated it would dribble out for ages. We switched to using a condom for various reasons, but now we're TTC. Naturally we're not using any protection and I've noticed that hardly anything leaks out afterwards. Is this a sign of a low sperm-count or just his age (he's nearly 20 years older than when we first met............)?

I don't think it's either, sometimes it drips out loads for me, other times there's not alot that drips out...it's usually when I'm around fertile period though I think...

so if you have leftover fluid does that mean that all of the sperm was old/dead.
if there is some leftover does that mean thats it is not going up right or is it just that you have had enough.

 

[Mynxie]

no not at all!

That's why there's so many:sperm: :sperm: :sperm: :sperm:

cause not all of them will actually pass the cervix

[Mrs-N]

oh right,sorry if im thick! but can you get fresh :sperm: and old/dead :sperm: together?
ill apolagize again for being so thick, soz

Mynxie is right, the amount of sperm that men produce when ejaculating is enormous. And I suppose it is possible, but only the strongest sperm will make it to the egg, sperm actually have quite a few obstacles to get through before fertilizing an egg.
