In this episode of Parents You’ve Got This - The Expert Guide to Parenthood Podcast we talk about sex and making a baby.
We get lots of questions about this topic – for example, is there a "best time" to try for a baby? What is the best position to make a baby? Does putting your legs up in the air help conception? Do different positions give you a boy or a girl? What role does lubricant play in making a baby? In this episode we welcome back our fertility expert Dr Raelia Lew to answer all of these questions and more.
Dr Raelia Lew is an IVF and Fertility Expert with extra qualifications in reproductive health and infertility. Dr Raelia is the Medical Director of Melbourne IVF and Women’s Health Melbourne.
We discuss:
- The optimal age to try for a baby
- If it is true that certain sex positions increase the chances of falling pregnancy
- If certain positions help you achieve a boy or girl pregnancy
- If putting your legs in the air after having sex helps sperm find the egg
- If eating certain foods or taking vitamins or probiotics helps you get pregnant
- If having an orgasm increases your chances of falling pregnant
- Is it true that the duration of sex increases your chances of falling pregnant
- Does having sex every day increase your chance of falling pregnant or is it better to have sex less frequently
- Does lubricant aid or hinder your chances of falling pregnant
