What to do after intercourse if trying to conceive?
We just started trying this month and im overthinking everything lol. Like should I lie down after, lift legs up, all that. Whats actually worked for u ladies?
Oh, the pressure we put on ourselves during this time is immense, isn't it? I remember doing all sorts of things! While some people lie down with elevated legs, scientifically it's not proven to make a huge difference. Try to relax and not stress too much about the 'after'. Focus on enjoying the intimacy and tracking your cycle, that's what truly matters.
There are many old wives' tales about what to do after intercourse for conception, like lying down with legs up. However, medically, there's no strong evidence that these positions significantly increase your chances. The most important thing is timing intercourse around ovulation. If you have concerns, speak to your gynac for personalized advice.
My doc told me it's mostly about timing, not what you do right after. We just relaxed and stayed positive. Honestly, overthinking can add too much stress! Just enjoy the process, keep track of your ovulation, and believe in your body. It will happen.
Haha, I remember all the crazy things people told me to do! Like stand on your head, or do a happy dance. Honestly, just try to relax for a bit and don't immediately jump up. The main thing is to have fun and time it right. Don't turn it into a science experiment, just enjoy the journey!
My mom always used to say, just lie down for a little while and relax. Don't rush to clean up or anything. I don't know how much it helps scientifically, but it felt comforting. More than that, try to track your cycles and be stress-free. Take care, beta.
