Trying to Get Pregnant

Are there any "best positions"?

Now that we are TTC, we have babies on the brain. I am having my second IUI in a couple of weeks but I would like to know this for natural conception purposes: are there any sex positions that are more effective while TTC?

Some say that there are and some say that there are not and i'm confused. We are doing double duty (IUI and natural) to increase chances of conception. Any suggestions or information would be helpful to us! :)

  • Yes.  Penis in the vagina.  This is the most helpful position.

  • I am assuming since you are doing IUI that you and DH are struggling with some sort of infertility issue.  Did your RE recommend a good position?  I think any position will be fine, but if you want to get technical, perhaps the "deeper" the better?  That way the sperm is being deposited as close to the cervix as possible and has a shorter distance to swim.  So doggy style or something else that allows for deep penetration.  Good luck!

    And here I thought it was in the butt....

    A lot of women get confused.  They think the holes are all the same.  They are not the same. Wink

    But a turkey baster should remedy any confusion, right?

    That is a question better answered by Paula Deen. Or maybe Flavor Flav.

  • Oh wow. I hope that was a joke. I'm looking for serious answers.....
    imageimageimageimage
  • Thanks for the real answer LOL I almost choked reading that first persons answer. I just thought that maybe I was missing something that could be more effective.

  • Mine was serious.  Put the penis in the vagina.  Not on it, not beside it, but in it.  Move it back and forth until eruption. End of story.

    It's a joke.

    And I personally thought it was funny as hell. 

    And I also will have nightmares of Paula Deen with a turkey baster.

  • I hope I don't start to laugh in the middle of my next IUI thinking about Paula Deen with a turkey baster....

    And sorry guys. I'm just a little uptight right now. I'm just so pissed that I'm not pregnant yet. It's taking sooooo long and I'm getting sooooooo anxious!
