I am probably looking way too much into this but was curious and cant help but ask.
Does it matter if you goto the toilet after BDing and some of the *stuff* comes out? or are you supposed to stay lying with it (as sticky and icky as it may get) And does it make a difference if they ummm stay in you? Or pull out straight after "releasing". Stupid questions probably i know LOL -------------

I have read that it is best not to go to the toliet after you BD because you will pee out all the sperm and that will make it harder to get pregnant  ------------- http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/250ed1" rel="nofollow">  TTC#1 Jan 2009 |

Haha nothing is TMI when it comes to a TTC forum!
Does it matter if you goto the toilet after BDing and some of the *stuff* comes out? or are you supposed to stay lying with it (as sticky and icky as it may get) * I personally don't get up afterwards when TTC - I clean myself up with tissues and then just put my knickers back on to catch any "leaks" lol. I normally put a pillow under my hips straight afterwards aswell for 10 mins or so. My sister has been told to always empty her bladder after sex because of recurring UTI's. She asked her gp about it when ttc and she said to stay lying down for 10 mins then get up and go to the toilet. And does it make a difference if they ummm stay in you? Or pull out straight after "releasing". * This I have no idea about! I wouldn't imagine it would matter though? ------------- Kelly, mum to DD, 19Jun06 (26wks 1lb15oz) DS1, 24Oct10 (32wks 4lb11oz) and DS2, 31Dec11 (32wks, 4lb11) http://lilypie.com">

Lots of people suggest lying with your legs up a wall after for like 20-30 mins just to give the swimmers the best chance of getting where they need to go.
I vouch for this and as you can see my result is over a year old now -------------

Well, when we were TTC, I'd try to put a pillow under my hips afterwards and would often fall asleep like that. Occasionally I'd lie with my feet up the headboard too. I'm not sure if it made any difference, but we must've done something right! ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

This is what I've heard too... Hmmmm ok, am I the only one that never leaks after?!? 
I can get up and walk around and sit down and watch tv and nothing ever leaks out lol, it comes out when I go to the loo though. Do I have freakishly strong muscles down there? (Never get 'stained' sheets either   )------------- Formerly Wishin41 |

I've heard that any sperm that are going to make it into the uterus will have done so within 20 mins - anything that 'leaks' isn't extra as such, just those that went in the wrong direction etc! Apparently only a small percentage make it into the uterus anyway, and even fewer make it to a fallopian tube, and only half of those go to the correct tube!
Wishin, re not leaking - how's this for strange: sometimes I leak, sometimes like you - nothing. I've even asked DH if he was faking  but he swears he wasn't.

Lol, my DP doesn't fake... cos it's always there when I go to the loo.... but it's like my muscles are so tight or something that nothing escapes unless I choose it to LOL! ------------- Formerly Wishin41 |

Lol Ladies thanks for your input!! I love that i got feedback so fast aswel lol! Ive had times where nothing leaks and times when it does haha but maybe that has something to do with the size of their "load" ?? I think i will do the hips elevated thing though coz seems it has worked for a few of you! -------------

I always have a pillow under my hips too to help "assist" things. I stay there for at least hour hour to hour to be sure.... anything helps! ------------- My Beautiful Little Emily http://lilypie.com">

Hehe, I used to lie on my back and hug my knees for 20 mins then go to the loo so I didn't get a bladder infection. Did the trick
Ummmm, I think we 'stayed together' for about 5 mins or so?? Man, it's been a while... GOOD LUCK WITH MAKING A BABY!!!!!! -------------

My FA specialist backs up what Hope2be said, that as long as the male ejaculates that will get the sperm to where it needs to be.
You should go to the loo afterwards to avoid a UTI. |

I go to the loo afterwards every time, I just can't seem to not, and there's plenty of excess. I have heard the advice about UTIs as well. -------------  |

We kind of "lie together" for about 5 minutes afterwards (or until it falls out  )...then we both get up and get cleaned up. It obviously worked for me

Well I read somewhere you're supposed to put your legs up in the air (like when you do 'candlstands" as a kid) and then move your legs in a cycling motion to help mover everything down.
Everytime I try this DP wets himself laughing and pushes me over. But other than that I usually jump up and go straight to the loo due to horrendous UTI's over the years. Still waiting to get BFP though so can't say if it's worked or not. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I have been reading somewhere that staying for at least 20mins with pillow under hips etc, letting him stay in until he soft so it doesnt work like a plunger when still hard and if at all poss having a 2hour nap afterwards......
They also say to stay as still as poss so your muscles dont contract and push the fluid south and to try to not laugh or cough etc as well. I also watched a documentary once about the human body that said the fluid (sperm)is designed to stay thick enough to give the swimmers a chance to make it through the suicide course and then after 15mins it breaks down and will then head south. The fluid is just a transporting tool for the tadpoles Ive been laying there for at least 40mins with pillow under hips (i put tv on so i not getting bored) just get a towel up between my legs to make sure i dont lose a drop and if i can just stay in bed for the night.........So because of this i am really tired because im having much later nights than i would normally. Oh and I hug my legs cos i just couldnt have my legs that high for so long.......and cant put on wall as i wouldnt be able to see TV...LOL And since doing all of this i dont have as much escaping afterwards.......but when not in fertile zone, a i get a good blob that comes out if i stand up right after and go to the loo for clean up on isle 9

I think it really makes no difference if you go to the toilet straight after, as ee and Penis come/go from two different holes (so to speak), and the urethra's diameter is not wide enough to impede on your vaginal walls when urinating. They say to use gravity to your advantage, so having your pelvis tilted by using a pillow or something, however I'm sure it'll make little difference as ultimately it is the sperm, the medium they're swimming through, and timing. -------------

I have never stuck a pillow under my hips or put my feet up a wall and we have been lucky to get pg quickly twice. Sometimes I get up straight away and go to the loo (I too have heard about the UTIs) and sometimes we cuddle for a while before I get up, depending on the mood (or the state of my bladder ) ------------- Lindsey

I dont think it makes a difference. I got pregnant without and with my feet up the wall.
We never stayed together as such, and I went to the toilet if I felt I needed to. Touchwood I have never had a UTI, we have a "sex towel" for tidying up.... comes from flatting in London.. it was so embarrassing getting caught doing post coital toilet dash! It has kind of stuck and nice cos we can cuddle and not break the mood. -------------

This thread is funny!!
Remains me off those 50's books on how to concieve. I think coz the sperm travel at such speed (approx 200km/hr) that it usually gets to your cervix in afew spilt sec and thenyour cervix sucks it up. I guess it worth giving anything ago when you ttc.  ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">
