backward uterus? ??

HI All -

I am still pretty new here - only approx six weeks pregnant and i went to my first drs appointment on Thurs.
The dr told me i have a "backwards uterus." Didnt seem to make a big deal about it - but now im mad at myself for not asking more questions.

Is this OK for the pregnancy? What happens if it does not move back into the normal position?

Any advise would be so appreciated - I'm still early so nervous about anything/everything.

Thanks so much!

Re: backward uterus? ??

never heard of this but I just found a little article:

"How can a tipped uterus affect my pregnancy?

Usually between the 10th -12th week of pregnancy, your uterus will no longer be tipped or "backwards." This should cause no difficulty for the pregnancy or for labor and birth. If the uterus does not move into a "middle" position, miscarriage can occur, but this is very rare. "


from AmericanPregnancy.org


Focus on the "very rare", if doctor wasn't more concerned I wouldn't worry.

Congrats and happy healthy pregnancy to you!
