"Doggy style" problems (sorry, might be tmi)

So sometimes we try this position. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it doesn't. He's maybe a foot taller than me so I guess it makes sense.

I've googled this and the main issue people seem to have is the guy slipping out, which isn't generally a problem we have once he's in. (Again, apologies for tmi). The main issue we have is he shoves me so far forward I end up between the mattress and the wall and in pain, lol. I just can't seem to stay in whatever position I start in, I'll just slip forward and forward.

I guess my question is, is this something I'm doing wrong? Is there an easier way to stay on my elbows or whatever that I'm missing?

It gets frustrating when this position only works like 10% of the time!

  • Why is he even pushing you? He doesn't need to physically move forward just to thrust. Tell him to stay put and stop shoving.
  • I like it kind of rough if we're doing it doggy style so I try to grab a hold of something so I don't move so far away, if I do still end up moving, MH will just pull me back.

    You could bend over the bed or the arm of a sofa...somthing that won't move and is realtively padded!

    Leaving aside the "doggy" label which tends to limit things, this is actually just 'rear entry' which is a heading for a selection of positions that are amazingly different and surprisingly versatile.   The main limiting factor is the physiology of the couple,..their hieghts, build and genital angles etc.  You could try some of the other variations......

    If he is taller than you as you say then there is a particularly nice method where you both stand, perhaps against the kitchen units or the table.....find something to stand on to enable optimum penetration...then bend back against him and tip your head back for kisses....he holds an arm around your front and pulls you into him whle stimulating your clit with his fingers......    Only minimal undressing is neaded just his fly and your panties!....works well as a 'wellcome home' position.

    ...Then there are the 'G' spot variations.......lie full length on your front with pillow under your hips..he mounts with legs outside yours and 'rides high' until you tell him he is in the right spot, then grind sensually against eachother....

    There's lots of superb 'rear' postions if you just get a bit experimental!....Good Luck!
  • It seems to me you have two problems: staying put, and him going too deep. 

    Before suggesting ways to solve these problems, I hope you've talked to your husband. I've had both of these problems before and they were mainly resolved with my request that he doesn't go so hard or deep. If he doesn't know there's a problem, he can't help fix it. 

    Staying put: I will echo leaning over a bed or sofa. I'm not sure your level of willingness to invest in sexytime play things, but I've invested in some liberator wedges (totally not paid to promote them). They're velvety soft lining is washable and stays put wonderfully on a bed. Plus the big ones prop you up so that may help with the height issue. They're also fun for more than just doggy style! If you haven't, you may want to check them out. 

    The pain: I hear you on this one. Too deep to fast and hard HURTS! Other than talking to him, one thing I've found that helps prevent this is putting your legs together. Once he's in, put your legs as close together as you can - not only does this make it harder for him to go really deep, but he'll go crazy over how tight everything is. 

    Good luck!
