Does holding your legs up help you get pregnant?
Not exactly, but the idea behind that pose involves the process of sperm from the semen getting into the cervix. I advise my patients trying for pregnancy to rest for 30 minutes after intercourse with a pillow beneath their pelvis, to create a slight tilt.
