Omer ocean mimetic 3 mm

hi all, i recently got this wetsuit, its my first open cell wetsuit, (usually i just used regular scuba wetsuits). I tried it yesterday for the firt time. I had a bad experience. I fullly immersed it in water before i put it on ( to make that easy), i got into it with some difficulty, but nothing major.
My problem was kind of emabarassing, the wetsuit was almost water tight, so difficult to move around/adjust once it was on me, i wanted to adjust myself "down below" to get more comfortable but couldnt, 2 layers of non moving wetsuit/gloves to make matters worse, the 2 crotch clips of the jacket were also sort of hurting me, I had to abort the dive (i guess i have more precious priorities than fish )
what am i doing wrong? do i have to use more lubricant (shampoo/conditioner/talcum etc...)to get in or is this Normal? to its credit the water was freezing and i felt totally warm though. I know i will get a lot of sarcastic comments about this, or this wouldnt be deeper blue, but at the end please try and give me some good advice
Cheers
