I am a belly sleeper and I remember reading somewhere that it is best lay on your back for about 30 min or so after bdin to help with conception..however dh and I bd I usually snuggle up a bit and then roll over on my belly and fall asleep....so any of you ladies think that this could be the problem with me not being able to conceive?? I also remember reading that this is only good for conception if you have a tilted uterous...mmm maybe I am crazy and thinking way too much about it!!

Honey it really doesnt matter how you lay! They say placing a pillow under your hips for 30 minutes is good..I've gotten pregnant 8 times and never done that!

IMHO... I'd think as long as you're laying down, it shouldn't matter how. But there are plenty of people who get up immediately and still conceive (ie, people who aren't trying, those of us prone to UTI's). So, I'd just keep doing what you're doing.

If I lay down its for a few minutes. with my first pregnancy I was laying down for 10 mins got up and went about. I think it will go where it needs to and the extra will come out regardless.

thanks ladies...really just think I am thinking way too much but at this point I think I am questioning everything about how to make a baby!! LOL

Yes, don't think about it so much-easier said than done. Anyway if your hubby has normal sperm counts you don't even need to lie down afterwards as enough sperm that are propelled onto your cervix is enough-the rest is just extra!
