Sperm Meets Egg: Top 3 Sex Positions To Aid Conception
Wouldn’t it be awesome if you could boost your odds of concieving a baby by just performing a few (fun) acrobatics during your next roll in the sack? Well, it’s not necessarily that simple. That’s because there’s not really anything in the way of scientific research that proves that one sex position is better than another for conception There are plenty of myths out there about the subject though. But even though science doesn’t offer a solution, you can have some fun trying out some of the best theories about sex positions.
- Missionary Position: Some believe that the classic missionary position — man on top — is best for conception. The idea is that you (literally) get more bang for your buck by using gravity to your advantage. This may sound boring, but hey — you’re free to be creative during foreplay!
- Hands-and-Knees: If you really want deep penetration, try the position most of us lovingly refer to as “doggy style” (you on your hands and knees, and him behind). Some believe that getting closer to the cervix during sex makes it easier for sperm to swim to their target. But they’re fast swimmers, so chances are, they’ll get there anyway. As another theory goes, if you have a tipped uterus, you might be better off using this position. If you’re having trouble conceiving missionary style, you might want to try switching it up.
- Woman on Top: Sure, you’re working against gravity here, but some experts say that may not matter, with the whole fast-swimming thing. Plus, for some women, this is the most pleasurable position, and that may actually be what’s most important. “We tell our patients the best positions for conception are the ones that are most comfortable for the woman,” say The Mommy Docs Allison Hill, MD; Yvonne Bohn, MD; and Alane Park, MD — ob-gyns who practice in Los Angeles.
After-Sex Position
After sex try this trick: Lie with a small pillow under your hips for 20 minutes. This can help the sperm swim toward your uterus. “Among women who had IUIs, there was a higher conception rate among those who stayed lying down for 15 minutes,” says Twenge. “There aren’t any studies about whether lying down makes any difference after actual sex, but it can’t hurt.” Use it as an excuse to have a little post-coital pillow talk.
Do you have different conception position ideas to share that have worked for you?

Ok oooo noted
Thanks admin , I think the impt thing to also remember when trying to conceive, is that having regular sex can really help. Having sex every two to three days increases your chance of getting pregnant within the year compared to having sex only once a week .
Great.

He hehehehehe. …naughty laughter
When ttc, have sex every other day,after which u raise ur legs let them rest on d wall,depending on d position of ur bed. Stay like dat 4 20mins n also hold ur wee for dat time. It worked 4 me,God willing.
For me if everything between the couple is ok health wise, then what matters is how regular they have sex not necessarily the position
