My husband and i are trying to conceive. is it beneficial to not stand up for a while after intercourse?

Makes no difference: It shouldn't make any difference - some sperm will leak out of your vagina even if you lay down for a while, but it's the sperm that get through your cervical mucus then up through your uterus to your fallopian tubes that have a chance of reaching your egg.
