Best position to get pregnant might be one of the fertility boosts you just need. If you are trying to conceive, it is wise to try everything natural to help you along the way.

You might be surprised to know that the question "Which is the best position to get pregnant?" was asked by so many people, that there was scanning to answer the question.

Magnetic resonance imaging scannign was made while volunteer couples were making sex to understand what was going on in the female body during sex in different positions.

To best position to get pregnant proved to be the missionary position with man on top and woman lying. This position allows deep penetration and uses the gravity.

The magnetic resonance imaging scans confirmed that in the missionary position, the penis reaches the recess betwen the cervix and the wall of the vagina at the front of the cervix.

So it is just logical, that when the sperm is deposited closed to the opening of the cervix it would be possible for more sperm to travel to the released egg in the fallopian tube during ovulation. Timing is crucial in getting pregnant, as the egg can survive not more than 24 hours after ovulation.

Some people are wondering if the position they make sex can influence the gender of the baby. There is no scientific evidence, but still there are lots of legends. The best position to get pregnant is also considered the best to have boys. Simply because the male sperm is faster, but weaker and it is harder for it to survive in the vagina for long. So some experts beleive that if you make sex with the man on top and the sperm is expellled closed to the opening of the cervix, the male sperm will reach the egg faster than the female sperm. This is true, however, this can happen if your timing is correct -- that is if you are making sex when there is an egg released in the fallopian tube indeed. Otherwise, if you are making sex a few days before ovulation, the male sperm might get extinguished, while the female sperm might survive and fertilize the egg. Timing is really important, as well as making sure you do not miss the ovulation. So it is always better to try for a baby just before ovulation occurs. If you wait for the sure sign of having ovulation, it might be too late, as the egg in the fallopian tube might die before you make sex.

Do you need to lie down after sex to make sure you get pregnant?

Just as with the position, this cannot be the defining factor, but it doesn't hurt. So you can just relax after sex and allow the sperm to stay in your body and travel further, before you get up. Of course, you are using gravity. When you get up some of the sperm can be expelled from your body. So what most women do when they are baby dancing is staying in bed of a few minutes and even putting a pillow under their feet.

Some women lie on their back and bicycle with their legs for a few minutes after sex. If there is no research in the area, it is clear that in this case gravity and uterus cotnractions will help the sperm to travel faster to the fallopian tube. If your timing is correct, this can help just a little bit. Besides, it can be fun and make sure you enjoy it as this matters most.

The main thing to remember when you are trying to conceive, is to have fun and have regular sex -- every other day. You do not need to make sex everyday, as this will result in weak sperm. Doing sex as mucha s 10 days apart also result in unsatisfactory quality and quantity of the sperm, Doing sex every other day or every two days results in peak quality sperm.

So have fun, drop the worry and just enjoy yourself while trying to conceive.
