I had never heard that! I will keep it in mind when we try again around dd's second birthday! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-176257 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 13:05:56 +0000 LuLu Mom 176257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put my feet up on the wall and had a pillow under my butt....pregnant the first time having unprotected sex! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-176231 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 12:35:25 +0000 cokiezombie 176231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@His Barista: I have a tilted uterus too, and I read that we should be lying our on stomachs vs on our backs.. not sure which is better, but whatever works :) </p> <p>@Alivoo01: yes, major leakage. DH always asks "did it leak" afterwards. Gosh..the conversations we start having after TTC'ing is NOT sexy at all. "Are you ovulating?" "Are you leaking?" .. lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-175639 Thu, 31 May 2012 23:20:32 +0000 His Barista 175639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a tilted uterus so we decided to put a pillow under my hips. We got pregnant the first month so I like to think it worked. : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-175614 Thu, 31 May 2012 22:40:35 +0000 Alivoo01 175614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For you ladies that propped your butt up, does it not trickle out pretty soon after you "finish"? I started propping my butt up, but not even a minute later, it starts trickling down my butt! TMI - sorry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-175219 Thu, 31 May 2012 19:05:41 +0000 cokiezombie 175219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: I know exactly what you mean. I actually had one from my doctor (PG version) to put in my chair at the office so it'll force me to sit up straight. So when I opened the gift from my friends, I exclaimed, "oh a back pillow for me to bring to the office!". They all laughed at my naivety. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-175051 Thu, 31 May 2012 17:54:29 +0000 Mrs.Someone 175051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cokiezombie - it does look perfect, but I think I have to stick to regular pillows :) Though my cousin had a completely PG version of the pillow for sleeping with digestive issues! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-175039 Thu, 31 May 2012 17:44:28 +0000 cokiezombie 175039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: The pillow is perfect for propping underneath myself after BD'ing because of it's angle :) ..who knew right?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-174960 Thu, 31 May 2012 16:42:39 +0000 Mrs.Someone 174960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cokiezombie - Wow, just wow.

Consider yourself warned!). my friends gave it to me at my bridal shower, little did they know I had another purpose for it!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173993 Wed, 30 May 2012 19:32:28 +0000 heffalump 173993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I propped it all up and got pregnant. Dh read about it so I did it... even though I didn't think it was necessary. Figured it couldn't hurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173961 Wed, 30 May 2012 18:32:28 +0000 hellobeeboston 173961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried this and didn't get pregnant those times - when I finally did I did nothing! I didn't even lay down after! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173954 Wed, 30 May 2012 18:12:05 +0000 chopsuey 173954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha got pregnant both times without propping anything up! I even peed a few minutes after! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173927 Wed, 30 May 2012 17:46:15 +0000 twodoghouse 173927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been more diligent about propping my legs up this month, so I will report back in approximately 2 weeks and let you know if it works!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173924 Wed, 30 May 2012 17:42:23 +0000 Mrs.Someone 173924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for the responses everyone! (Keep them coming) Who knows if it really helps or not, but so far over half of you think it does, so thats good enough for me :)</p> <p>@Running Elley - thanks for the details! What I'm looking for is whether or not it could give a boost to those already timing everything right. Looks like maybe!</p> <p>@mediagirl - hah! Actually, I don't believe in Jesus, but it sounds like raising heels to whatever is up there is a good idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173923 Wed, 30 May 2012 17:41:39 +0000 Running Elley 173923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: LOL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173921 Wed, 30 May 2012 17:40:04 +0000 lemondrop 173921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried it for many months before getting pregnant, but the month of the BFP I didn't do anything special- just took a nap after having a little fun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173920 Wed, 30 May 2012 17:38:56 +0000 MamaMoose 173920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: ha! I laughed out loud at this!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173897 Wed, 30 May 2012 17:13:52 +0000 yoursilverlining 173897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope - didn't do anything (probably went to the bathroom right after too) and we got pregnant first time with no protection. I don't know if stuff like that helps or hurts (don't see how it could hurt), but always be wary of correlation and causation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173888 Wed, 30 May 2012 17:00:04 +0000 WALLAROO 173888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I propped my legs up and pillow under my hips. We got a BFP but not sure how much it helped, but it definitely didn't hurt our chances either. We figured why not try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173882 Wed, 30 May 2012 16:52:33 +0000 mediagirl 173882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: Heels to Jesus, believe in it. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173859 Wed, 30 May 2012 16:33:37 +0000 Running Elley 173859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got pregnant the first month of trying 2 times by putting a pillow under my butt an propping my legs up against the wall after sex during my fertile window!</p> <p>ETA: I am not sure that it was instrumental in me getting pregnant. I also charted religiously and we had excellent timing each of those times. Like I said in the other thread, I watched The Great Sperm Race and it had me absolutely terrified…I was scared that the little swimmers may not make it without my help lol. I also *may* have vocally encouraged them haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prop-up-legs-pillow-under-hips#post-173857 Wed, 30 May 2012 16:31:48 +0000 Mrs.Someone 173857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Inspired by the old wives tale thread! I'm curious if those who have gotten pregnant have done these things. </p>
