Re: Ok, be honest...

We did for our first pregnancy but not for the second. What I do that I think is better is I don't get up after at all. So I make sure my teeth are brushed & I am washed up and ready for bed....we BD and then I don't get up until the morning. Gotta keep all the potential swimmers in the game!Chat Icon

Prior to going to the RE and we were trying naturally, yes... I did.
We always laughed about it, but it did give me free reign over the remote for a half hour!

I picked Other. The months BEFORE I got PG I was a counting propping pillow fool. I remember one night DH said, "Maybe you should just stand on your head" Chat Icon .

BUT the month I got PG I did nothing. I didnt even know I was late, when I was "o" nothing. I was moving and was way to concerned trying to find a place to live. So hence my "other" vote.


Im no help.Chat Icon
