TMI

I feel silly asking this.....After DH and I BD...I usually keep my legs up for 20 minutes. Sometimes if I get up after 30 minutes it seems to come out ( sorry for the TMI) but I had to ask. Does this happen to anyone else? How much longer should I lay down...do you think thats enough time for his "little guys" to swim up there?

Re: TMI

Yes, this happens to me...I don't think there's anyway to keep any from dripping out...even if you stood on your head for a day.

But I heard that 5 mins is all you really need to keep your legs up. I used to keep my legs up for 15-20 minutes and all I do is about 5-10 now.

Just think...how many women have gotten pg and NEVER kept their legs up?!?! That's how I think of it now...

Re: TMI

What is actually falling out mostly, is seminal fluid. The sperm itself, actually swims out of that fluid and into your cm...and then enters the cervix.

Try to drink a lot of water, eat tons of veggies especiallly baby carrots, during your "o" time. This can help the cm...be more friendly. Mucinex or robitussen (the decongestant) help as well if the cm is a bit thick.

I had that when we were TTC. Sometimes it would come out and sometimes it didn't. But the sperm that "counts" is already doing their job! I'm superstitious so I also kept my hips raised for 20 minutes after BD'ing. I didn't use them but some women use Instead cups to help keep the sperm in, and when they actually used them they did get PG!

What are Instead Cups and where can I get some?!?!
