I Have One Last ? About Conception
Posted: 02-05-04 22:15pm

I have listened to all the hints that all u wonderful women have given on different methods to conceive, but I just had one more.

After b'dcing I know im suppose to lie still and relax with some cushions under my butt to help the little bliters swim but I was told to try and pee after sex so as to minimise getting an infection. Does peeing matter, or should I wait as long as possible as im a little confused on this issue. Im thinking if I p (not to be gross) but all the little buggers will be washed away.

Sorry if this is a silly question and all that but was just wondering.

I think you should lay with the pillows under your buttox for 20 min. You walking to the toilet and then sitting in the upright position, gravity takes its toll, maybe if your stuck on the habit of peeing, alternate lay for 20 one day; pee the next you could also just lay for 20 all the time then pee after 20 min is up. Which ever works or comes first. Wink

Its not a habit and I dont always have to p I just do to limit the chances of infection. If I was to lay on my pillows for 20mins and then p does this have any impact on the sperm, I mean do I flush it all out from my system or are they past that point.

I might just not p and stay sitting on my pillow with my butt in the air and help the swimmers then go to sleep or wotever and p when I have to and not worry about infection.

I always lay there for about 30 minutes... Then go to the bathroom. I always p after bding too to minimize infection. Then go back to bed and go to sleep. I just feel that after 30 minutes the little soldiers should be in there Laughing

Well I had my last af dec 10 and then three very light spotting days around jan 24th. So I called doc and she put me on a generic provera to force a period. Today is my last day of that and hopefully in a couple days I will have a period. After af comes on cycle day 21 I have to have some lab work done to check out my hormones. I also have the option of clomid but it kind of makes me nervous.

So that's my story Laughing

Clomid

Jewel
just an fyi for ya. I have a friend at work that is just now getting off of clomid and she has gained alot of weight, very moody, and I also heard there is a higher risk of overian cancer when taking it. The cancer is the main reason why I won't take it. If I have to do anything I may go and get artificially insemenated. Cost alot less then invetro. Just wanted you to be aware of the risks of clomid. Good luck

Clomid

I have heard the risks of clomid... Ovarian cancer. But it's not confirmed b/c what causes ovarian cancer is not ovulating and and that is my problem. Clomid starts the ovulation.

At least that is what I thought I understoo Confused

For me, a girl with a severe tipped uterus and only one ovary, I stood on my head for as long as I could. The first try and gravity worked for me. Now 14 weeks!! Just a thought for anyone trying to conceive!!

Oh and remember... At least every other day, days 10-17 of your cycle.
