WELL..If I am not TTC then I get up and pee right after BD'ing...but when we are TTC I pee before and try not to get up at all...this cycle...the day I got a positive OPK we BD'd and I tried not to even move...then the next 2 nights were the same....there was MINIMAL "spillage" at all...maybe my cervix sucked it all up...I can only PRAY

Hi Leigh!

I don't think is a dumb question but it's probably b/c I had the same question like a month ago..lol.. Now I do like Tiffany said if we're not TTC I go to the BA after we finish but when I'm O'ing I lay down and I don't move. But if you BD and have to get up for whatever reason try to lay down for at least 30 minutes if you can (if not I think 10 will give enough time to some swimmers to get where they are supposed to). Also when you're TTC try not to take a shower after BDing because the soap can harm the sperm. Hope this helps!

I hope nobody laughs, but I did a hand stand right after and got pregnant that month after one year of trying.

I am not laughing! I was ridiculous with my first two. I would just lay there and put a pillow underneath my rear for at least 20 minutes. I got pg the second month with dd and the first month with ds. This time I am going to try not to be so anal though!

With my first pregnancy, we did it from behind and I don't think I laid down afterwards or anything and I got pregnant. With my next pregnancy, I was on top and afterwards I laid down with a pillow under my butt for 20 minutes then went to sleep. With this pregnancy, I had just been to the doctor a few days before and she reminded me that my cervix is over to the left and my uterus is a little tilted and I had heard somewhere that if you are too elevated that the spermies can pool up behind your cervix and get trapped. So this time I didn't put anything underneath me. But I did roll to the left for a while, lol. Then I think I rolled to the right for a while just in case and went to sleep. I didn't get up at all.


But technically, it only takes 3 seconds for the guys to swim to their hang out.

Thanks everyone for your feedback! I was actually thinking about the handstand option, but maybe I'll start with a pillow under my butt for a few minutes!
