Retroverted Uterus and Amnio

Hi all

After receiving my results from combined screening (1:50) we decided to go ahead with an amnio.

We went to the FMM last friday when I was 15+4 (after psyching myself up) to have the amnio only to find my uterus is 'still' retroverted and my bowel is directly in front of it. My consultant re-scheduled the amnio in 2 weeks time (next friday).

I know this is a long shot, but does anyone else have any experience of this? Would my uterus grow enough in the two weeks to be sufficient enough to push my bowel out of the way?

I'm feeling good (I just have this feeling that everything is going to be ok no matter what) but my dh has not taken it all that well and don't know how he'll cope if we have to have it pushed back again.
