Lube for thermometer

I use KY jelly for my rectal thermometer

I like Vaseline. It feels more soothing to me

We almost always use Vaseline. As a courtesy, I usually wipe the residue off my wife's anus, or hand her a napkin so she can wipe herself. She doesn't wipe me, but that's OK because the Vaseline residue is soothing on the hemorrhoids.

A&D Ointment

I'm old school. I want to see her walk in the room holding a jar of Vaseline. It holds the thermometer in place better as well. If she wants to proceed to other anal stimulus,then We switch to KY or something like it. But for the initial thermometer insertion,Vaseline for sure !

Mom always used vaseline. I can still remember laying across her lap and hearing the sound of the lid being unscrewed.

We use either K-Y or Vaseline. Because it's so slippery, we use K-Y whenever an over-the-knee temp is taken and the thermometer is held in place.

Don't people find Vaseline leaves an uncomfortable residue? It can't be easily wiped. At least that's what I recall.

Vaseline is an all-time favorite, even if it is messy. It has a melted glaze when the thermometer is removed, that can't be duplicated by water-based lubes. It even intensifies the whole rectal temp "experience." The trick is to use it sparingly. For small bottoms, it prevents any pain or discomfort. Some adults find rectal temps. uncomfortable without lube.

I prefer KY

KY is the best. The thermometer just slides in

I suppose I am old-fashioned, but nearly 100% of my experiences growing up were with Vaseline, both at the pediatrician's office and at home. To this day, I cannot see a jar of Vaseline and not think back to those experiences.

@Bell you copied @lizzie192 's comment. Not the first time I've noticed that you did that ?

^^^ Noted @rtobsessed & rectum-fied. 😁

I also only use Vaseline for taking my rectal temperature. I like to buy the large jar and lubricate the thermometer by just putting it straight down into the Vaseline, so when I take it out all that is left is a little hole. I like it when there are a bunch of little holes all over the surface, it adds to the visual effect that of course makes the whole experience better.

In my can of cream you will find these funny holes, too. 😃

I do dearly love the sight of the old familiar jar of Vaseline being brought in along with the baby or rectal thermometer. Other than that, ky is ok, but dries up too soon. Palmers cocoa butter formula (hard stuff in the jar) is great. Sometimes I like a touch of Carmex or just a dot of Vicks if I'm feeling sub

Ditto...

I have used Vaseline, KY and even my own juices. I prefer KY.

Albolene, try it, you will like it. Cleanup is fast and easy. On a butt plug, it has lasted 12 hrs.

Course

I like to lube the hole with my tongue first

Mine is a very thin electronic one so I just use a tiny bit of my own juice to slip it in. Now that I know it's something I enjoy I'm looking to get something bigger so these suggestions will be really helpful

Back when my granny used to take our temps, and being Mexican and all she used Vick's vapor rub.

Vaseline

I like to use Astroglide. It is nice and slippery.

My husband usually uses K-Y on my basal thermometer, before inserting it into my rectum. Besides charting my basal temperature, we take each other's temp rectally with one of my mother's old rectal fever thermometers, which is also in the drawer by my side of the bed. Mom never threw anything away!

Growing up, it was Vaseline at home with KY at the doctor's office. As I have matured, I find the KY to be more pleasing for two reasons. First, it feels cooler against my skin when the probe is inserted and then the clean up is less messy.

One girlfriend's eyes would just light up when I'd put the Vaseline jar on the bedside table. She knew what was next.

Another old girlfriend always wanted me to fingerfuck her ass before anal intercourse, always with a big dollop of Vaseline. And always two fingers.

My lube of choice is and will be Vaseline....I love the sticky feeling and love to use it when I put a finger up a lady.....it stays slick and allows the easiest depest penetration of anything I ever tried.

KY Jelly. Have not used nothing else
