Retroverted uterus

Those with a retroverted uterus, did you have any issues with seeing anything in your scan? I’m going to a private one and I’m happy to pay it to see if I can see anything (aware that I may need to pay again in a few weeks when things are more visible).

Also I am so bloated and look about 12 weeks pregnant when I’m only 6 weeks

Hi, I have a retroverted uterus and have had a couple of scans already for medical reasons and they have not had an issue seeing anything. Mine were all internal scans.

I have one too and experienced no issues with scans.
Only issue I’ve ever had is examinations and doctors not being able to easily find my cervix as it’s short and far back due to my retroverted uterus.

I have one too and saw my baby at 7 weeks +4 abdominally quite clearly.

my first smear test had me crying cos she was trying her best to find my cervix. Now I know I have a tilted uterus I can say for any future exams

it’s awful!
Had the worst experience a few years back when getting a coil fitted!
The nurses get so flustered too which makes it 10x worse

I did my duty and only told my friends about my experience after they had experienced theirs. I never want to scare people and it’s so important people go. Because of who I am as a person, I was trying not to cry during the exam cos I didn’t want to make the nurse feel bad 😂

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

32 weeks

32 week growth scan and clinic appointment. Did anything unusual happen? Ive heard a few people saying 32 weeks was when they had a induction date

Hey what are your current symptoms?

I’m 37+5

I’m pretty mobile still but anything over a hour or 2 and I’m in discomfort

Getting up from a sitting position is hard

Some of baby’s movements now are bordering on painful especially around my crotch/pelvis

I’m exhausted very easily and nap every single day

Can basically only breathe out my mouth now and I’m snoring and dribbling 😂

Standing in one leg is very painful 😂

Some waves of pain/ tightening but I regular and mild

Low period type aches

And I feel like a fire breathing dragon with this acid reflux

My nose is growing 😂

My fingers swell slightly and go numbs in my sleep so that and constant toilet breaks keep me up ( checked swelling with MW and consultant and all normal, not a worry)

I also do not want to be social in person like I’d rather everyone just be my penpal atm lol

What are your symptoms?
