The Legs Up Method.

[Nurse 26]

Oh well i might give that a bash too if the witch arrives this month

Tilting your bum up isn't even a natural position, it's as unnatural as you can get so why would it help?

If it did, we would have evolved to already have a correctly angled vagina.

All the medical stuff i've read pretty much refers to the vagina as a die zone. If it doesn't hit your cervix as it shoots out then it dies. That is how pressed is supposed to help by making the vagina less of a die zone

Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable, but on this topic i agree with M2A about it happening when it's going to happen - not because you stood on your head after sex

evening ladies

in my first 3 or 4 cycles i done this but it made no difference, i've given up on it now too!

 

[Esperanza84]

I have tried this some cycles without any results so now I just do what I feel like! But I'm always on the lookout for something new...the pillow method will be my experiment the next cycle!

 

[MissJuly10]

This cycle I've just made sure I fall asleep or at least lay for as long as possible without disturbing the swimmers. x

Found this...

"There's no evidence that certain lovemaking positions, such as having a pillow under your bottom to tilt your uterus or keeping your legs in the air afterwards, can help you get pregnant. Sperm can swim fast enough without the help of gravity - in fact, the strongest sperm can swim through the cervix and into the womb in around two minutes, given favourable conditions."

 

[MissJuly10]

Well there's still no harm in giving it a go. My sister tried for months for her 2nd baby, she laid with her legs up and bam, pregnant! Not saying its a miracle solution (wouldn't that be great!?) but when you're TTC, anything is worth a go at least once.

given favourable conditions.

Need to work on making my conditions favourable

 

[cherrybinky]

I would never try it as I cant be bothered and Id feel stupid plus Im a loo dasher! Ive read its bad to wash or wee after BDing but I just cant help it. The thought of going to sleep with 'juices' running out of me is yak (TMI) lol.

 

[MissJuly10]

Cherrybinky, I used to be the same but now I hate having to pee after BDing because I feel like it's a waste otherwise LOL. x x

 

[kellyedd08]

Totally agree miss july,I too used to be a loo dasher but try to lie down for abit after otherwise I feel as if I'll just be flushing all the spermies away and that wouldnt be a good thing to do,lol

[Tinkerbell3]

I think I'd feel stupid laying there with my legs in the air after we've dtd, before I came off the pill I was a loo dasher too but have managed to get out of the habit at least.

 

[Nurse 26]

Going to make a pact with myself this month "MUST NOT LOO DASH" "MUST NOT LOO DASH"

 

[Samsgirl]

my friend who just had her 4th says she can pinpoint the exact moment she conceived her last....she had just finished af and they had sex in the middle of the night and she fell back asleep.......so the little guys had plenty of opportunities to swim where they needed to swim to!

xx

 

[Nurse 26]

Yep i'm pretty sure that i last time i got bfp i think we put a film on straight after and i didnt loo dash as i was busy watching. going to try fall asleep on OH from now on

Thanks samsgirl
