So do people stay laying down with legs in the air after intercourse or is this a myth?
Opinions please

It's a myth. Although we know exactly which time we got pregnant with dd and it was when my dp grabbed my legs and held them up for ages so you never know.

I don't think it is a myth. A lot of people on here do it! I know I do.

It supposed to help guide/move any lost sperm towards the cervix.

It's meant to help. I did it when I was trying to get pregnant with Ds1. It didn't work for me.
What worked for me was that the month I took my eye off the ball and didn't even think about it ... I got pregnant!!

Try and relax and not stress. Good luck Smile

I know which time I conceived DS2 and I lay with my hips tilted in the air/bottom lifted up off of the bed for a couple of minutes afterwards.
