Are you asking if it's safe to use lube? I don't get it... If you are, then yes it is. I don't need lube so we don't use any.

How would you know if it is safe to use? I see some lubes that have tons of nasty ingredients while others claim to be natural or even organic. Which one am I supposed to use? Esp. If your having a baby. You want to be more conscious of what you are using right.

I think I got an answer. We(me and feonce) have to use lubricant every time. It's safe to use, but if you read the package it will tell you if it is safe, and then there are some that say do not use if pregnant. I use ky brand. Hope this helps.

thanks for your reply!

I have read a lot about the ky brand and although it has been around a long time I think I have found a better choice. I get nervous when I read the ingredient list on the back of most lubes, (ky uses "methylparaben", not good I think), and since being preg. Is a very good time to get active in a healthy lifestyle I figured I would stay away from ky.

I shall keep looking and let you know what I find :)
