Was any other method used to prevent semen from spilling out afterwards (e.g., keeping legs crossed)?

RAH - Along the same lines as the two previous sections, this suggestion is designed to get as much sperm as close to the egg as possible. Of the two mentioned below, I would suggest the crossed-legs as preferable over the diaphragm; it seems to me that you might run the risk of trapping some of the sperm on the "wrong" side of the barrier. On the other hand, the diaphragm (or a cervical cap) might be a good idea, if you need to get up immediately to run a 10K race :-).

- RAH This might sound crazy, but after my husband and I have sex I take a paper towel and fold one labia over the other and then cross my legs. 9 times out of ten when I have gotten up several hours later there was no leakage at all. This may sound a little off the wall, but even some doctors reccommend it.

If you have a diaphram put it in after sex. It will act as a cervical cap. If you do not have one they are pretty inexpensive if you have you doctor write a prescription.

I have not bought one for years, but if ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
