Im wondering if anyone has any recommendations for supersensitive condoms, like ultra thin ones?
Im not very experienced with regards to condoms and will want to use them after having my baby until i can sort some other contraception out or my bf gets the snip, but im hoping its not going to feel tooooooo different after going from non-condom useage.
Any recommendations?

Don'ty bother with Durex, they're crap, really hard to put on and tear too easily.
Are XL ones necessary if the man is *ahem* well endowed, or is that just a marketing ploy?
Non-latex don't tend to have differing thicknesses but I think the ultrathin ones are a con anyway.
stil bogof today.
I bought a pack of Mates 12's ribbed today cos they were noyl £1.49 in home bargains.
Shall report back if theyre any good
Have you tried and theyre good?
They do actually, can't remember the dimensions, but when researching them discovered this truely useless fact. They also don't stretch anything like the latex kind, so no hope of getting them over a phone box.
Ahh really? I've only ever used durex featherlite and thought they were poo, big loss of feeling and kept breaking. I still have about 10 left, so I guess I'll work through them because i'm tight, but will change next time I have to buy some... probably in years to come!
Do you think the condomi ones give more snesitivity? That would be good if they did, I really struggle with that.
They do stretch just like the latex ones, well some of them do anyway. I have some Pasante Uniques and they don't stretch AT ALL, they're like a thin plastic bag, advantage is that they have a lip so if your non-latex friend hasn't got too big a dick (like my firend has) they keep you from as much skin to skin contact. Not that that's relevant to SCC's situation. I also have some other non-latex ones, durex avanti's and they feel a bit different but they DO stretch like a normal one. I can fit one right up my leg in fact! lol.
I have the Superdrug ones and I like them better than most because they're easy to roll down, you can do it easily with your lips too - bonus. The packets open easily, which is always good when you're in the heat of the moment. They are less breakable, in my opinion, than durex extra nastys. I think they don't smell quite as bad either.
And there you have my condom review. lol
I have problems finishing too, especially wearing condoms, and I've found the condomi ones to be the best at letting me get all the way.
Ahem.
Mates aren't bad condoms either, especially the ribbed ones, but they have an "interesting" smell. It's really just Durex that are absolutely shite, though- Durex stink, are ridiculously overpriced, and break too easily.
Just PM me your address and I'll send them out on a first come first served basis :thumb:
*PM's*
not just me then? totally wierd, they are just like a plastic bag. Perhaps that's how we should all reuse our supermarket carrier bags?
Also remember elasticity is counter-intuitive - a condom is much tighter at 30% stretch than 300% (a half inflated balloon will deflate into a fully inflated balloon if the two are connected together), and the skin of the penis is much thinner (and looser) than that of the arm or the face, so you can end up with painfully pinched skin.
If they're all that's available, I can make do with normal sized condoms (stretching them on, rather than unrolling them - cos that just isn't worth the pain; having to use your fingernails to try to get enough purchase to unroll it is bad; and broken capiliaries are just ugly) - but unless they really want it I'm much more likely to opt for activities that don't require me to wear a too-tight condom.
