Re: Now that we're TTC, we're having sex all the time. To keep the romance alive, we're changing up positions, but now I'm wondering which positions give us the best chance of getting pregnant?
Sex Positions To Conceive Baby
To (literally) get more bang for your buck, put gravity to your advantage. Read: The classic missionary position, man on top. This may sound boring, but hey -- you're free to be creative during foreplay! And no stressing.
After sex try this trick, lie with a small pillow under your hips for 20 minutes. This will help the sperm swim towards your uterus. And, it's a perfect opportunity to coax your mate into some postcoital conversation. You are, after all, making the baby. If your OB told you that you have a tipped uterus, however, you're better off on your hands and knees during sex, with him entering from behind.
Speaking of gravity, you may have heard that standing on your head after sex helps the sperm swim down to their target. But, (unfortunately for all you yoga masters) there's no scientific evidence supporting this.
