Hello!!!

So DH & I have been married for oooh, 2 and a half weeks and started TTC pretty much straight away. We started on what turned out to be my last ovulation day, and approx. 8 days afterwards AF arrived. Ovulation due to start again this week, and we're having sex every day. However is there anything else we can do to help push things along? We've already changed our diet and cut out alcohol, but is there anything post-coital that I/we can do? I usually go to the loo straight after and it's occured to me that this might be a bit detrimental.

In other words, is it basically just sex, sex and then a bit more sex til the BFP? :)

Yup sounds about right.

Sex at right time - you seem to know your cycle and have that in hand.

The only other things that helped us were using preseed lubricant (helps sperm instead of hindering them like normal lube)
I also did the legs in the air thing. Dont know if it was necessary but DD is now 6 months old. :o

Haha Laurasmurf, I did wonder if I needed to sit with my bum on a pillow to help gravity do it's thing (or even just lie upside down on a chair a la Phoebe in Friends). It does seem like a terrible waste!!!
