I did the legs up the wall thing too! lol! it seemed to work. Also thought hubby was kidding when he mentioned it - he laughed like hell when he saw I was still doing it half an hr later. We also used a "Clearblue Digital ovulation Test" from our local pharmacy - worked out exactly when my last period had been for the last 3mths & used the 3day window - worked

Yep, been doing the lying down thingee

I did try the pillow under the hips but it didn't really seem to tilt me back any further than normal - it was just really uncomfortable

Me and DP were teasing each other last month (1st mth TTC) and I was squirming about all the little tadpoles that'll be inside of me ... and he quickly retorted about my ovaries being little balls of caviar (roe) inside of me already (yucky - what a gross way to think of it

I also found this info from here

Q. What happens to semen after it's been ejaculated into a woman. Does it just stay there until it dies, or does it leak out? If it stays inside, what happens to it once it dies?

A. I get asked this question a lot, BTW.

After semen is ejaculated into the vagina, it can either travel farther up into the vagina, through the cervix, and then up the fallopian tubes, or drip out. Most of it will drip out when a woman stands up. Yes, it gets messy for women, panty liners help). Semen that remains in the body will carry sperm that can survive for approximately three to seven days. If a woman is trying to get pregnant, she should not stand up for at least 20 minutes after intercourse, but that is a subject I will address in an article.

Q. How long do sperm live if they do not fertilize an egg?

A. In laboratory settings, sperm have been found to live up to SEVEN days! Inside a vagina, probably for about three to seven days. The important part of this question is that if you have sex without using contraception up to five days before ovulation (when an egg is released from one ovary), the egg could be fertilized. So, if you have sex on Saturday you could potentially fertilize an egg that is released on Wednesday. The egg (ovum) has a much shorter life span (about twenty-four hours). So, having sex right before ovulation -- and up to one day afterward -- would be the ideal time for fertilization. If you really want to prevent a pregnancy don’t have sex around this time at all, even using birth control. If you want to get pregnant, do the math, it works.

I know that they die after 48 hours (so they aint swimming around for that long!!)

But not sure whether they just 'flush' out or fall out!!

That has been playing on my mind all night!!!

So, with this whole ttc thing, you obviously b'd like crazy around what you hope is the right time.
So, I currently feel like a Safety deposit box,(Or an ATM machine that you put deposits into) with all of those swimmers swimming around, hopefully doing their thing...

My question is: What happens to all of them? Do they naturally come out in CM?? Do they "flush" out when AF comes?? Does my body do a recycling thing and decide I need extra protein???

Just a stupid thought/question that kept me awake most of the night..
