To get pregnant, does it really matter?


Ive been reading different things, some saying it does matter some saying it doesn't

Has anyone else got any other info?

No it doesn't matter. Frequent regular sex (3 times weekly ideally) is what matters.

Egg meeting sperm. That's what you need. You can do it standing on your head if you like.

Let us know how it goes if you try that one

Nope. The good uns will be straight up there regardless.

I don't think position matters, I just made sure I stayed lying in bed for at least 10 mins afterwards with my knees up rather than rushing off to the loo as usual!!Wink

Actually there's no evidence that staying put helps either. I got up to pee cos I had so many UTIs when TTC. I still got pregnant. assuming he has rapid swimmers the rapids ones are straight up there anyway. Lying still only ensures the duffers are still in there and you wouldn't want them getting you pregnant anyway!

Some people say different positions influence gender.

Just do not get up out of bed for about 15mins after and do not go to loo for a while after, and sex 3 times a week every week . You should then hit it lucky. Good luckWink
