Default Instead cups and PG

Well ladies...discovered a great way to get PG fast!!! Have a friend who had unexplained IF and it took 7 years to get her son. Come to find out after TTCing #2 for 8 mos her cervix is tilted. She can only get PG from on top. She used the Instead cups (ya know for AF) GOT PG 1ST MONTH!!!

Now...for those who know me. I have been TTCing for 2 1/2 yeasr with 5 losses. I got PG 4 times in 8 months that 1st year. All the times I was BDIng 2+ times per day and on top!! We did missionary and every other day after that for 9 months...in May 2006 I got on top on our wedding night and got a BFP!! We lost the baby at 6 weeks. I was diagnosed with PCOS and put on Metformin to reduce the risk of m/c. It has been 1 year and no baby.

Well...no suprise when I am not on top. I have a tilted uterus and cervix. So this month I am BDing on top and using Instead cups.

Here is how they are used to knock us up. After BDing (remember to BD in many positions) lay on your back and get the cup. Pull your knees up to your chest. Squeeze cup and press it against the bottom of the vaginal wall. This is a way to scoop up any stray boys. Release the cup as you insert, and press under the pubic bone and around cervix. This traps all the goods into the seminal pool and near the cervix for uptake. Leave cup in for 1 hour or more...I do 6 hours. This is poor man's IUI. It works and we have 3 women in the past week graduate from TTC after 1+ years doing this...you could be next!! So far out of 12 total women in the last 2 cycles - 4 are PG!!! Go get the cups...$5.84 at Walmart for 14 cups. Let's see how many women all over the TTC world can get PG npw!!!

I was reading a lot about that while TTC b/c my cervix is very far back but not tilted. There are a lot of women who get BFPs with them. If you do a search on the net you will find a lot of articles about this! Well good luck to anyone who tries it!

BTW: GOOD LUCK KIMMIE!!!

Good plan! Wishing you baby dust!

With a tilted uterus (I have one too), lay on your back
with a pillow under your hips to raise them up.
Lay for 30 - 60 minutes for optimal exposure after BD.

Good luck!
