Tilted womb

Has anybody else been told you have a tiled womb or anybody had any experience with it and does it effect the pregnancy?

I had an internal scan due to a miscarriage back in March and was told I had a tilted womb but that it's just one of natures quirks that affects some women but would have no bearing on conception, pregnancy or birth. I already have a 2 year old son and an currently 17 weeks with my second so assuming what the sonographer said was true.

Yup I've got one, apparently as baby gets bigger it rights itself anyway? I've got a 3 year old and am currently over 40 weeks pregnant so don't worry about it X

I have a tilted womb and shallow cervix apparently.

I had healthy twins, albeit via c-section.

I have a tilted womb and the fertility clinic told me in most cases it moves in the correct position in the weeks before the birth.

Yes. Only found out after a miscarriage when I'd already had two healthy babies. Currently expecting number 4!

Apparently I do. I found out pre-DC.

I've never had any problems related to it, as far as I know.

It shouldn't make any difference. I have one and it just made some scans slightly more difficult for them to get a clear picture but only early on (less than 12 weeks). My consultant said it rights itself by around 17/18 weeks.

I do, meant 12 week scan had to be internal to get a good picture but all scans since have been normal as it rights itself by 20 weeks and apparently generally goes back to being retroverted post delivery.

I have one and managed to become pregnant and carry babies to full term no problem. I was told it rights itself as the pregnancy develops.

I have one. Posed no problem with first baby and posed no problem getting pregnant with second scarily fast! In 2nd trimester now, so it's probably moves into a more 'standard' position. Which it will do. Nothing to worry about at all!

Apparently I have one as sonographer couldn't get a decent image of baby number 3 and had to abandon the nucal measurement. Never been mentioned before and all my early scans with DC1 and DC2 were straightforward. I blame DC2 must be something he did...

I have one, and other than difficulty at scans and internals it was of no consequence at all. Try not to worry, and enjoy your pregnancy.

I have one as well. Only issues have been early scans often need to be internal for longer because it is harder to see the baby in enough detail, but I am currently on my third pregnancy so it harmed my fertility (especially since I have endometriosis and am old).
