thought it was funny when the Dr told me..
So, DH and I went to a urologist for a follow up on SA, and the Dr. told us that when we have relations (as he called it) that I should put a pillow under my butt with feet in the air for 30 minutes.  Really? I thought that was just a myth. Oh and he said if anything leaks out to put a tampon in. has anyone ever heard this as legitimate advice?

Re: thought it was funny when the Dr told me..
I did that when we conceived DD and am doing it again this time around. I don't know if it worked...but just the fact I got preggo doing it the first time, is making me do it again. I only did it for 15 minutes. Good Luck!!  
ETA- I didn't go so far as to stuff a tampon in. I just, sorry to be so graphic, put a towel there and kept my legs and butt up nice and high.

The pillow and legs up worked for me but I did it for 10-15 minutes....How can a tampon work when it absorbs liquid! lol

Re: thought it was funny when the Dr told me..
OMG I'm so glad you posted this!
No joke-like 8 of my friends/coworkers/DH's friends wives/etc, all who are either PG or have kids said that doing the pillow underneath and legs in the air was what finally got them PG. They really believe it made all the difference.
And yes on our  marathon this past month I did stay in bed an extra 15 minutes legs in air under a pillow! LOL 
Whether its a myth or sound medical advice, IMO it definitely can't hurt! If the chances of sperm meeting egg are so slim, every little bit helps.
