Q: Fact Or Fiction?

I had read a reply from laura_girl stating [quote] you need millions of sperm to get preg. Yes, in theory it is only one sperm that reaches the egg, and it's theoretically possible for you to get pregnant... Very very unlikely.[unquote] is this true?
I also have a few other questions or statements which I really want to know if they are fact or fiction:

1. You can get preg. Through anal sex

2. Doggy style is the best way to get preg. Because the sperm goes straight to the egg

3. Some people can feel a preg. After just 1 week?

4. It’s best to lay for a while after he ejaculates inside you so all the sperm doesn’t come out of you

all replies would be very much appreciated! Thank you!

1. Yes, laura_girl is right. That is why it is better to wait every other day or so to have sex during ovulation; to let the sperm count build up.
2. No, it is physically impossible to get preg. Through the anus.
3. Sex is sex, doesn't matter which position it is done in, it all goes the same place.
4. Symptoms usually do not appear until 4-6 weeks. Some women, however, have stated that it has happend that early. All women are different.
5. As far as laying down, I am not sure. But, I would think it might help to elevate the pelvis because any help is good help. Gravity works in mysterious way.

I hope that I helped. Good luck!!!!!!!!!
