Hubby and I try to at the same time.. I hope that's just as good as him going first!
The other thing is, if he orgasms first, it means that the swimmers are sat about in the vagina for longer, and due to the acid nature of the vagina this isn't as great for them.
I'd say together is ideal! That way as soon as the sperm shoot out they get sucked up by the cervix!
All you ladies who can time your o with OH at very lucky!

I don't know... I think this whole "cervical dipping and sucking" scenario has been pretty much debunked; I discussed that in a thread about a week ago, that had to do with tilted uteruses (uteri? lol) and how doctors used to think this common condition made it harder to get pregnant (for the reason you just mentioned above), but now they no longer believe that.I came across it ages ago when finding help about TTC. This is why the female orgasm plays a huge role in conceiving just as much as the male orgasm does..
If your OH ejaculates before you hit the big "O" and you get there after he does your cervix will dip into the "pool" and suck it up... it's a bit grim, and a weird thought but hey
Every bit of knowledge helps right
Oh and if you orgasm before he does you may be sucking CM up and pre-cum, CM is acidic, sperm don't like that as much.. so try to orgasm after your OH's
LoL
Theres a youtube link but everytime i try and post it on here it shows the video not the link dont want to cause offence to those who don't wanna see it! LOL :/
I do know that I got pregnant with my children very easily, at a young age, before I'd ever experienced an orgasm (I was a late bloomer in some ways, I guess!)
And I do not now orgasm during intercourse; never have.The only orgasms I have are from masturbation or from oral sex. I have them easily... but not from intercourse. Ever.
I do not expect this to be a problem.
I may or may not be able to get pregnant, at my age... but I am completely confident that if I don't, it won't be because of a lack of orgasm during intercourse.
Hmm i dunno, my uterus is normal and my cervix does that lol if you sit still while O-ing you can feel it..
I think it only helps though, loads of women find it hard to O and still get pregnant..
Only when i Orgasmed just after my OH did in the whole 13 cycles of TTC did i conceive though..
What harm can it do to O after he does though.. when you try for ages you'll try anythinglol

Tilted uteruses are "normal" as well.
It's a normal and perfectly functional anatomical variation. About one in four women has it.
It's just where your uterus sits at a slightly different angle in your body.
Your cervix is at a slightly different angle as well (an angle from which it is not likely to be able to "dip down" into pooled semen).
Doctors (until about the 1960s) used to believe that a tilted uterus made it harder for a woman to get pregnant, because they thought- as you posted- that pregnancy occurred when the cervix dipped down into pooled sperm in the back of the vaginal vault and sucked it up into the uterus.
Now that has been pretty definitively debunked, and they no longer believe that is how pregnancy occurs.
Yep i know, what i meant is that mine sits upright. I worked on ward 5 (a gyno ward with my mum whos a sexual health and a gyno nurse for a few years so heard about my fair share of uterus's)
The cervix can point against the wall, straight down, or even sort of point upwards.
Female orgasm can help in some peoples cases(not for everyone though) it all depends on where you cervix is and where it hits when you orgasm.
Sperm will sit in the pool if you are on your back. but the cervix wont always orgasm and hit that spot.
But it doesn't mean you'll fall pregnant, it can help though. I mean the odds in a healthy couple doing everything right is only 25% chance a month.
After this long of TTC .. it's worth a try lol
