When I first “cracked the code” on stabilizing and reversing prolapse, and wrote and published Saving the Whole Woman, I set up this forum. While I had finally gotten my own severe uterine prolapse under control with the knowledge I had gained, I didn’t actually know if I could teach other women to do for themselves what I had done for my condition.
So I just started teaching women on this forum. Within weeks, the women started writing back, “It’s working! I can feel the difference!”
From that moment on, the forum became the hub of the Whole Woman Community. Unfortunately, spammers also discovered the forum, along with the thousands of women we had been helping. The level of spamming became so intolerable and time-consuming, we regretfully took the forum down.
Technology never sleeps, however, and we have better tools today for controlling spam than we did just a few years ago. So I am very excited and pleased to bring the forum back online.

I love this question, Chicka,
I love this question, Chicka, and I'm looking forward to an answer or some educated speculation. I don't recall this being discussed before (at least not any time in recent memory). - Surviving

not silly at all chicka!
and I am so thrilled that you are expecting!!!!
I carried like you describe- a big ole bump out front.
The only time I carried wide was with #3 and he was transverse until 2 hours before the birth and that was before whole woman.

Pelvic nutation
I can't argue with Alemama on this. Mine were all much the same once pregnancy progressed. However, the pelvis is a little wider at the back in WW posture because the pelvis nutates slightly around the sacroiliac joints. This means that the bit ilia, the crests, must rock a little closer together at the front. Also, your pelvis may be tilted forward more, so it is logical that you could be carrying more forward.
Twins???? ;-)

hmm
not sure what it is (not twins!) but I am carrying differently. Could be just coincidence. But I'm thinking posture is playing a role in visibly tilting things forward. Slumping and slouching is incredibly uncomfortable in pregnancy!
