i tilt my hips or rest my legs up for 30 mins or so after (btw i always pee before so i don't have to get up after iykwim) before going to sleep as we normally at night i put a folded tissue between my legs to catch any leakage during the night (hate the stickiness esp if we've used pre-seed)

(again sorry for tmi) any thoughts on this?? xxx

Thats perfectly normal. keep in mind that a) the man ejaculates next to your cervix so the spermies get to where they need to go. b) you dont need the million of sperm to get pg just one really good swimmer with good direction detection skills, lol! and c) what leaks out is seminal fluid and is perfectly normal..doesnt mean all the sperm are leaking out..the clever ones are already having a party by then! lol!

Also wanted to add, i got pg from bd 2 days before ov and ive since read that the highest rates for pg is from bd 2 days before ov and ov day itself 34-36%. I only did it only once and i certainly did not put my legs in the air, lol!! Tbh, i cannot be bothered with that as its boring and uncomfortable and there's really no reason to as the sperm are at your cervix anyway..however, i do think having an orgasm is a good thing, although not vital, as the cervix dips when you do and sort of sucks up more sperm- besides..its a fun thing, no? Lol!!

I also warmly recommend a cbfm and this conception calender for fun http://www.whenmybaby.com/conception-calendar.php

Good luck ladies!!!

Having an orgasm is good, but u should have one before he has his (sounds good eh ladies) only because the vagina is acidic and when u orgasm it nutralises (sp?) the acid giving the sperm a better chance of survival (I read that in one of my books and it worked for me this month cause I got my BFP)

I also kept my legs in the air and used pre seed for the first time.

I bd'd every other day as soon as I saw a feint line and last did it on the night that I got my peak.


Good luck everyone!!!

I personally did the legs in the air technique, that seemed to work. Unfortunately I had an early miscarriage, but we were obviously doing it right!
Good luck to all of those TTC out there



Stay away !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
