I didn't think we had a chance because my CBEFM hadn't shown a peak yet and I wasn't temping that cycle. Well, lo and behold that was the cycle we got pregnant! There were two times my husband was in town that were it. So, all those other times were doing it everyday or other day for the month were apparently a waste of our time. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44849 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 04:34:00 +0000 junebugmama 44849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only thing I changed the 8th month of trying was putting my legs over my head and I got a bfp </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44818 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 01:07:10 +0000 mrsjyw 44818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I prop a lil bit when I remember.

When we finally got our BFP, I think I actually just laid in bed, no propping! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44392 Sat, 31 Dec 2011 00:25:25 +0000 lemondrop 44392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I took a nap... still got that BFP. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44327 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 20:10:12 +0000 ALittleP 44327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did some months and some I did not.

I see the Instead Cup as the lazy way to prop up the hips. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44289 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 18:10:58 +0000 mediagirl 44289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't the first month but the month I got the BFP, yes, I did heels to jesus for a few minutes and did not go to the bathroom until the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44273 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 17:20:10 +0000 banana 44273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally did. And we got pregnant right away. I don't know if it had to do with that. But I'd like to think that it was! I also kept still for 20 minutes right after to let the swimmers swim as fast as they could. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44269 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 17:16:13 +0000 winniebee 44269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't on the first several months of trying but did lift just my hips in the air the month we got a bfp. Turns out I have a tilted uterus so lying on my tummy probably would have been better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44265 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 17:04:47 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 44265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't always prop, but I usually try to keep still for about 30 minutes after. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44241 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 16:25:16 +0000 yoursilverlining 44241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, never. And probably went right to the bathroom right after too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44211 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 14:55:58 +0000 eupenmalmody 44211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: My fingers are crossed for you!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44209 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 14:55:01 +0000 sorrycharlie 44209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@eupenmalmody: you're giving me hope!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44207 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 14:52:57 +0000 eupenmalmody 44207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I did. I propped my legs/hips up with multiple pillows and stayed that way for at least 20 minutes (until my butt fell asleep). Not sure if it helped, but we got a BFP our 3rd month of trying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44201 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 14:47:42 +0000 sorrycharlie 44201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hmm we're on cycle 3, and I did last night. well i just tilted my pelvis, no pillow - and dh got mad that i was blocking the tv. LOL. so tonight, tomorrow, etc I'm going to try the pillow..wouldn't hurt! i didn't do it the last 2 months.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44183 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 14:29:53 +0000 ktgee04 44183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Although we weren't actively tracking my cycle/fertile days (I had just gotten off BCP), I did randomly prop my butt up a few times after BD'ing purely b/c I heard it could help if I had happened to have ovulated. Apparently something worked b/c we got pregnant that same month. Not sure if it was that, dumb luck or a combination of both. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44181 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 14:23:09 +0000 heffalump 44181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did. I felt silly but I did anyway. Figured it couldn't hurt. And I did get pregnant on the first try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-prop-your-hips-up-after-bding#post-44177 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 14:18:49 +0000 Mrs.VW 44177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just curious - and if you got a BFP! :) </p>
