I did. I felt silly but I did anyway. Figured it couldn't hurt. And I did get pregnant on the first try.

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.

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.

Nope, never. And probably went right to the bathroom right after too.

I don't always prop, but I usually try to keep still for about 30 minutes after.

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!

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

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.

I propped them up briefly and popped in an Instead Cup. I see the Instead Cup as the lazy way to prop up the hips.

I didn't. I actually always pee right after. But got a bfp!

I did some months and some I did not. The month I got pregnant, I did NOT. However, I always stayed in bed either for the rest of the night or for at least 30 minutes after...

Yes, and no I didn't get a BFP right away! When we finally got our BFP, I think I actually just laid in bed, no propping!

The only thing I changed the 8th month of trying was putting my legs over my head and I got a bfp

I did lift my legs in the air afterwards and I was slightly propped by a pillow. 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.
