First time, some soreness afterwards.

I had my first session with the Aneros Helix on Monday. Before then the only thing I have ever had up my rectum is a urologist’s finger when she checked my prostate two years ago.

It is now Thursday (3 days later). And I do still feel a hint of soreness. The anal sphincter was very very tight. I did my best to relax, breathe deeply, and become aroused to insert. It still took approximately 25 minutes of gently coaxing before it finally popped in. I also used plenty of lube. Once it was in it felt absolutely amazing. But it did take some time to get the girthiest part of the toy through the anal sphincter.

My question is if I should be concerned about some residual soreness 3 days later? I wouldn’t say I have *pain*, that is too strong a word. But it certainly feels like something slightly thicker than a finger passed through. I feel it a bit more following a bowel movement as well. I assume maybe the tissues are just slightly irritated and the muscles got a bit of a workout? It really is very mild. I would say on a scale of 1 to 100 it is a 2 or 3. But even so, I want to make sure I am safe about continuing this.

First session today, have questions.

Tried the aneros helix for the first time today. I simply read the booklet that came with the product for basic instructions, nothing else.

Took a while (20-30 mins) of very gentle coaxing but eventually got it in without too much trouble. I started contracting my pelvic floor muscles and immediately felt waves of heat radiating through my body and immediately became erect. The booklet doesn’t say anywhere not to jerk off whilst using the toy so I also did this. Within moments I had the most intense, fulfilling orgasm of my life. It was like warm explosion in my head. Post-orgasm, the waves of heat continued throughout my body. I was nearly crying it felt so good. I also have felt since then unbelievable clarity and mental sharpness instead of the more common post-orgasm fatigue.

Then I go online and start reading how I’m *not* supposed to manually masturbate with the Aneros in. Did I screw this up? I had such a good time I can’t imagine doing anything differently. Can’t wait for my next session.
