Legs in the air.

[Writerwannabe83]

Hello ladies

A colleague of mine told me that in order to increase the chance of conception I should lie on my back with my legs up against a wall for half an hour post sex!!

Obviously I know it is silly - but I still did it last night!!!

Also - this is a seriously TMI question but I do need to ask it.

After sex, how much sperm do you find leaks out of you??

Even after having my legs up for the wall for about 15 minutes I still found there was quite a lot of leakage when I stood up, haha.

I can't believe I'm talking about this!

I guess I just thought that all the sperm would be shot up to where it needed to be???

Not read thread

To answer your question OP gravity works against sperm, but you can help them along by tiling your pelvis - put a pillow under your bottom.

So instead of the sperm having to go upstream like salmon they can happily trickle down towards your cervix.

oh ffs!

not tiling, TILTING!!!

OP whatever you do, do not do any tiling inside your "love cave"!

haha! Deffo no to tiling in there!

I read somewhere some women have more tilted cervixes than others which means the legs in the air is actually helpful for some, depending on what 'shape' you are?! I frankly can't be arsed.

I think a pearl clutcher is someone who is uptight and conservative, but I may be wrong!

And not agreeing with International means we are uptight??
Interesting....

And Zing : I promise not to start decorating my love cave like a bathroom wall :)

writer imagine someone wearing a few rows of pearls and lovely clothes.
now show this person a child with a muddy hand.
encourage said child to wipe muddy hand in pearly lady's clothes.

watch the reaction of at the thought of something so "terrible" happening.
it will involve recoiling, clutching of pearls, sharp intake of breath, loud gasp or cat bum face and hopefully some eye rolling.
if you like you'll hear the phrase "well I never!"

writer

if you are not agreeing to various things on MN you may be accused of "clutching your pearls" ( being too precious about stuff)

here is a secret - it doesn't matter

Oh no - that sounds like something I would actually do, hahaha

My sister's children always have dirty faces and hands and I'm there, desperately rummaging in my handbag to find wipes to clean them up with, haha

BuggerMe, with a username that clearly invites bum-fun I would never have had you down as a pearl-clutcher. You can relax.

...and unclench your buttocks

Ohbuggerme

here's another one - Baby Gravy

This is going to be one hell of a long post. I'm back with a vengence. where I start first I don't know...... Erm think I'll start on the positive....
Thank you to all the posters who have not past judgement on my situation .It means a lot. xxxxx

RaRaz My user name is after the song international love (Pitbull and Chris Brown) x
Oh Buggar me... Why am I troll because I don't live a perfect life (yeah keep telling yourself that) like someone I might mention,or is because I can hold my own and be assertive! and no I am not going to get your post deleted. I am pretty sure I can handle a flaming from you without mums net to hold my hand!x
Winterwannabe83. How dare you mock my reasons for ttc. Don't we all want a baby so we have someone to love and be loved back!
Yes I do have a hole in my life that can never be filled losing my beautiful baby! I can't believe someone can be so insensitive
Like another poster said very correctly we don't all live like you. x

God I feel better for that rant!!!
Reading through some of these very very judgemental posts I don't think I am the troll. x

B.T.W who ever asked I was not a teen mum and even if I was where is the crime. My angel was planned as was D.D. I am 30+ x

I never accused you of trying to replace the baby you lost, I would never say anything like that to a woman who miscarried. If in any way my post came across as such, then I apologise.

Apology accepted. I'd also like to say well done it takes guts to say sorry.xx

That's ok, we may have different views on your TTC method but I would never want to cause any real upset to you, especially concerning something so emotive as a miscarriage x

You may not agree with what I do and nor do I seek or ask your permission! but my life is not for you to pass judgement. I've never heard of it being stupid to put kisses. I always do after everything. It's just my way.
Thank you for you good luck wishes. Same to you x

ohbuggerme
some kisses are ok

xxx I luff ya xx

I'm going to put it out there international, I am judging you. To be so blasé with your FWB's life and your possible unborn child's is shocking. You are morally bankrupt.

Ohbuggarme. I can't argue with that, hey if I'm wrong I'll be women enough to admit it! I know know why I am bothered about being judged I love a good flame. The world would be a lovely place but also a verym boring place if we all agreed with each other.
However all that said I still feel assertive and confident about my choices.x

I am already a lone parent and if you will allow me to say it I don't think I've done a bad job. I'm not a perfect parent but who is!. x
