I have read it can slow sperm down... if you buy the kind w/ spermicide then it would kill it for sure.

Zayannee is correct. KY is definitely not the way to go. They have a special lubricant out there called PreSeed and it's sperm friendly :) We used it and loved it. We're pregnant and we still use it! lol!

YES it is true. Dont use it. After you conceive, then use it again. ALthough, i dont know about you but some of those brands have left me more uncomfortable the next day than i would ever dream. LOL, it could have been us though... Anyways :) dont use it. it does kill sperm.

Some KY does have spermicide and some does not. Check the label of what you use. Make sure what ever you use says it does not contain spermicide.

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
