Went well but I’ve discovered I’ve got a tilted uterus so they couldn’t get a clear picture for taking babies measurements

I’m due to go back when I’m 13 weeks next week to get a better scan as baby will be bigger

Not worried but didn’t know that your uterus could be tilted?! Also I was in and out the ultrasound room 4 times being told to go to the toilet, and then that my bladder wasn’t full enough etc etc.

Tilted uterus over here too.
Congratulations 💐

does it make a difference to you @wetwashing00?

I have a tilted uterus too! Not been for my 12w scan yet, I was told this at a different gynae scan.

All it’s ever meant for me is that I feel my period pains in my back more than my front. I was told it usually corrects itself during pregnancy (the later stages though)

When I have a smear test they always say my cervix is quite far back, or ‘the other way’ but it doesn’t affect it in any way.
I haven’t noticed any other difference, it’s a common occurrence.

I meant congratulation on the baby not the tilted uterus. 😝

Yes, tilted uterus here too. Currently pregnant with no 3. The only problem it caused me was that they struggled to get measurements at the 12 week scan and I had to go back.
