I have tried this all... Ha ha lol. Sorry for this. I read a lot about this movement of legs in the air or different positions matter. I tried everything but don't think so it helps. Some couple might get success but that's probably they think. But medically and scientifically nothing has proven.

All the best.

When trying naturally we tried this, we had a laugh if nothing else. Good Luck xx

I stupidly blabbed all my secrets to my fertility doctor. And he basically told me that people get pregnant from being In stressful situations such as forced sex, doing it in the car, or even a cheeky fumble in the shower so he told me not to worry about the pillows or the legs in the air, but he said if I think it helps keep my mind occupied that I'm doing something then to carry on haha.

My consultant is so cool and hip, although feels like a conversation with my dad haha!! I feel completely at ease when I blab to him all my stupid moments haha!! But he did tell me to stay well away from google and to only use his expert advise, I told him about this page and he said he was going to follow it out of curiosity haha!!x

Eventually you`d increase you mood, which will increase chances in further steps.
