    Hey Irena, I completely misread your post! I was thinking about retroverted uteruses, like Teirae has (me too).
    I doubt it matters too much anyway - good luck with TTC

    @marcellus, thats cool, its not inverted, its tilts the right way but even more so than normal. It makes sense though - I have an unusually deep curvature on my lower spine than most people, along with a few other congential back problems - so it didn't actually surprise me when the doctor told me that. She did say that it will put a lot of added pressure on my bladder and bowels when I'm pregnant - so hurrah for me!

    You know, I would think it might make a difference in early pregnancy, but later on it probably wouldn't because the uterus grows up and out of the pelvis anyway.
    Like with retroverted uteruses - at some point they flip to the front in order to expand beyond the pelvis.
    But I'm not a doctor of course....

    marcellus - the doc said just wait and see what happens, can't tell until I get preggers anyway =)
