Sperm: Sperm have tails that whip back and forth and allow the sperm to essentially swim or move through the vagina, up ther cervix and usually into the fallopian tubes where most conception occurs. Around the time of ovulation your cervical mucus becomes thin and almost watery allowing easier motility of the sperm. Some get "stuck", but there are millions moving up.

No: When you are fertile, your mucus becomes thin and watery. Sperm can swim though this mucus to makes its way up to fertilize the egg. Other times of the month, the mucus is thick, preventing anything, like bacteria, from getting into the uterus.
