I'm really worried about my wife; she's in her 9th month of pregnancy and has been dealing with a cough that's turned into something more over the past couple of months. It started as a dry cough, but now she ends up vomiting in short bursts right after she coughs. She's been taking Sandocal, uprise D3 1k, Ferosyl, and Grilinctus cough syrup. We've also tried antibiotics prescribed by doctors, but nothing seems to help. Can anyone explain what's going on or give us some advice on what to do next?

So, my wife and I are thinking about trying anal sex, and we're not exactly sure where to start with lubricants. Is there a specific type you would recommend that's available at a medical store? Also, are there any other tips or suggestions you'd have for us?

You can use KY jelly. However it's not flavored. You may go for durex gel as well, which you can find in different flavors
