Goofy Q: Laying there

CalipsCalips
in Secondary IF

So how long do you/should you lay there after giving it "the ole college try"? Wetend to be morning people and when a toddler wakes up it is difficult to stay and marinade.  Is there a recommended time? 15 min? 30 min?

Thanks!

    You really don't have to lay there at all.  Plenty of sperm will be past your cervix after ejaculation.  They won't come back out if you stand up.

    Like the pp it probably doesn't make a difference but just for good measure try for at least 5, it couldn't hurt!

    My RE said 15 mins is plenty, it is more of an extra help but PP is right normally plenty make it w/o laying.  But I am very cautious each cycle so I lay Stick out tongue

    Well for IUI when they put it right directly into the cervix, they have me lay there for at least 10 mins so I would recommend you try to stay at least that long too.?

    Everyone's pretty well covered it. That said, I'm usually pretty tuckered after a good romp anyways, so wind up taking a 20 min cat nap. I guess I get in my wait time anyways!

    At night, I am still laying down after (sometimes I prop pillows up under my hips) and then fall asleep, but if done in the AM I usually try to lay there for 5-10 mins.  When I have had an IUI, they set the timer and have me lay there for 10 mins.  When DS was conceived I was up and about right after.
