What do you do....
after  time? Some people say to lift your legs up, some say to elevate by putting pillows under your butt, some say to lay on your stomach or just stay lying down for 20 min.....Just curious what you girls do because it seems like a lot of different advice....

Re: What do you do....
I know it's kind of a funny thing after and I felt even silly asking....but I've had so many of my friends tell me what they did and what they heard to do....I'm so confused! lol

Re: What do you do....
I prop my hips up on pillows for about 15-20 mins. A friend of mine told me to let DH stay 'in' for a little bit, but that was just a little too much, and a bit gross to be honest. Sorry for the TMI

I felt like this was a TMI question so I really appreciate the honesty girls....This is all so new to me!

Re: What do you do....
you'll get varying advice on this
when i asked my dr he laughed and said it doesn't do anything, but if it makes you feel better, go for it

Re: What do you do....
i agree that most drs will tell you that everything that is gonna go where it needs to go will do so and if you get right up - but i still wait 5 mins before getting up - cant hurt so why not

Re: What do you do....
When I got pregnant once we were done I put a pillow under my butt for about 10 minutes and that was it. I dont know if it mattered but I got pg so its worth a try

Re: What do you do....
roll over and go to sleep. the Dr told me to do this. I used to wait 20 mins or so but he told me that's not enough time, so now I'm trying this method

That's what I've been doing. Hopefully it works for both of us!

Re: What do you do....
I usually put a pillow under my but and lift my legs for around 15 to 20min...then I usually roll over and go to bed...I try not to get up and go to the bathroom until the middle of the night or even morning....some websites say you should lift your legs and some say it is an old wives tail...it doesnt hurt to try anything.

Re: What do you do....
I don't do anything except wait to pee until the next morning since urine kills sperm.
