Withdrawal of Penis..

I'm still TTC. And I do have a some or..many questions but I hope this one doesn't sound silly.


After ejaculation, with my legs raised, and when the penis is being withdrawn, I feel like alot of semen/sperm comes flowing out. Is that normal? I mean, it seems like what a waste of effort if you get what I mean.


Any advice is appreciated.


Thanks!

Does he wait just a few seconds after he is done? I'm sure it's fine. My first was conceived without ever staying in too long or me even laying down. I ran to the store the second we were done. If it's meant to happen the sperm will make it without any extra effort from you. Good luck.

I think it should be fine. I would tell your DH to wait a little longer before withdrawl... Just kind of stay there for a minute or two to keep those little swimmers from swimming the wrong direction!!!!!

By the time they're in there, the sperm is trying to get where it needs to go.


It doesn't matter if you get up right away or if you sit for an hour.


You're actually not supposed to raise your hips too high anyway, as that can be counterproductive to getting pregnant. (the sperm swims to the back of your vagina, and doesn't get to the cervix)


The first time I got pregnant, he pulled out before he finished

New to this board, been trying since May and we just heard of the Diva Cup. Maybe it has been mentioned on this board before, but I will repeat it in case no one has. The Diva cup is meant for AF and keeping it all in there for up to 12 hours. In TTC right after you have sex insert the Diva cup in and you have no worries about it
