NuvaRing and foreplay

I know a lot has been posted about NuvaRing and a lot of questions have been answered. I know that you can take it out for up to three hours for IC and that most men and women don't feel it when it's in. But I also know that the vagina isn't very long and therefore the ring is not in very far.
As a result, I am wondering if anyone has had problems with the ring during foreplay (if I decide to keep it in). Sorry if TMI, but my boyfriend likes to finger me before we have sex and I don't want him to accidently pull it out or be worrying about pulling it out. I know it wouldn't be a big deal if it came out and I could just put it back in when we're done, but I'd like to get some feedback from NuvaRing users to see if it is easily pulled out during foreplay.
Thanks is advance for your help!

It may be a trial-and-error thing at first. You could try your normal stuff and if it presents itself as a problem, then you can remove the ring for all or part of the encounter, but if it doesn't interfere with the fun, all the better, right?
Good luck!

I don't take my ring out during foreplay, or sex. My BF says he can't feel it during sex, but obviously feels it if he's fingering me. He says it doesn't bother him at all. For me, it hasn't ever been accidentally pulled out at all, but I asked my gyno what to do should it come out accidentally ever and she just said to wash it and put it back in!
I like to always just leave it in there (the benefit to having "don't have to think about it" BC)- i did have to take it out once tho when the condom slipped off and i needed to get it out (again sorry if it's TMI). I have read on these boards some women posting questions and concerns about low-libido and the Ring, and perhaps they can be more helpful on that, I haven't had that experience at all!!
Good luck with your next BC choice. Hope it works out for you.
