TMI but need advice

I know this is probably TMI but my partner and I have only this month started trying for a baby. We were using condoms up until Feb 1st. When he finishes I feel like so much semen/sperm leaks out and I’m worried not much is going up there. I do feel like less comes up during my fertile window but there’s still leakage. Is this normal? Please help me put my mind at ease!! 😂

Totally normal. You can always lie down for a bit after or raise legs in the air but I believe that’s not actually proven to increase the odds of conception even though people used to think it did.

Yep that's normal and an annoying part of DTD 😂. The sperm swim straight up right after ejaculation, what comes out is just the fluid they were in. I lie down for 15 minutes afterwards to give them a helping hand but you can get pregnant without doing this.

Exactly what @ButterscotchBabe said! Totally normal.

When I was ttc I used to keep it in overnight as best as I could, though I'm confident it didn't work and this isn't advised as it can cause a uti.

Yes just a note that you don’t want to get a UTI when pregnant as it can harm the baby xx
