In reply to J. I haven't read them yet! This was "a few" years ago, and merely a funny memory now. I still remember the particular lingerie I was wearing when it happened.

Regarding prevention of UTI’s, for post menopausal women, since the wall between the urinary tract and vagina thin considerably, UTI’s can become common. I have had consistent success in beating this issue with the application of estrogen cream. It is expensive, but I use much less than the prescribed amount (one tube lasts 9 months) and have had no trouble since I began using it.

I also pay attention to hydration, using the restroom before and after as suggested by others here, and I never lie on my stomach after intercourse.

I fondly remember a physician who when diagnosing the UTI, asked if I had had vigorous intercourse the night before. I answered “no” and she replied “that’s too bad!” 🙂

In reply to berjiboo. Hmmm, did you read my short stories? I did have a friend who started a smoke moment in her marital bedroom with mood lighting. Oops!

Warning about lighting candles: sometimes they can set off the fire alarm in the hotel room! And then in the rush to blow them out (before you are interrupted by hotel staff while wearing very little) you blow too hard and spray wax on your lip & it blisters making kissing rather difficult. Not that I would know anything about that…. 😉

In reply to J. My wife and I always have some reading material, an actual book or kindle on a tablet. She's the type that has a never ending to-do list in her head and reading helps her relax. Even though we have different likes and dislikes, we can both read for an hour or two. It's no different when we are on vacation, in fact we probably read MORE than usually when we are away from home.

The advice given in this article is wonderful! For our honeymoon 35 years ago, my young bride only brought a special lingerie for the first night. I never even knew about the existence of lube until a few years ago! LOL!

Wow, that’s a lot of stuff!

We went on an anniversary overnight. I packed my toiletry basics, clean socks, undies, and shirt, my swim suit, and nightwear. I may have shoved a book in the bag, too.

In addition to lube, bring along some small towels for clean-up, if you don’t want to get up out of bed right away. Whenever we go anywhere, even for just a night, a small jar of coconut oil and a towel or two are always packed, just in case. The ones we use are called bar towels, I think? They’re about 2/3 the size of a regular hand towel.

Also to reduce UTI’s make sure everything is clean.
Both should trim nails and wash hands well. Scrub those nails.
And…always bathe beforehand.
In addition, while hot tubs are romantic- they can be a big prob with ladies. So instead, try romance with a clean hot bath and ask hubby to wash you. It can be a fun play time.
