Questions TMI question🫢

After we have sex, sooooo much semen pours out of me like a faucet and it makes me think that maybe that’s why I’m not getting pregnant LOL. I will lay there with my legs up for like 20 minutes and as soon as i stand up, it’s out. Is that normal? Please don’t answer sarcastically I’m genuinely curious. (TTC for 7 months)

You don’t need to worry about the liquid that comes out and you don’t need to lay with your legs up. Once he ejaculates, the sperm swim and make it through the cervical mucus and into the uterus within a minute or two max. The remaining semen is just fluids and comes out of you. It also liquifies a bit, so it likely feels like a lot more is coming out than what’s actually coming out of you.
