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.

Hi pregnant - We've had
Hi pregnant - We've had plenty of prolapsed moms who have experienced how everything tends to move out of the way for birth. I think there are high points and low points during the pregnancy, but it will be fine. What you are experiencing is not uncommon and what you will really want to do is avail yourself of the resources of Whole Woman to learn about posture and get yourself off to the right start post-partum. Read around the website, blog and forum, get an idea for yourself what we are all talking about and writing about all day long here......and come back with your questions. - Surviving

thanks Surviving60...
Hi, I went to the OB on Friday and he said that I do not have a prolapse but a retroverted uterus that is resting on my rectum making it difficult to have a bowel movement, but that it should move up as the baby gets bigger. I am still going to try the posture and some exercises to help encourage it to move back to a good position. Do you know if the posture can help correct the position of the uterus?

Definitely. Anything that
Definitely. Anything that helps get the organs forward and out of the vaginal space is the ultimate goal here. You can feel the difference if you get down on hands and knees. - Surviving

Hi! I have also always had a
Hi! I have also always had a retroverted uterus, and when I was early pregnant my third time just recently, my cervix was really low as well. To the point around 7 to 9 weeks I constantly had to pee and felt like the baby was pushing really low already. But luckily just a couple weeks later everything moved up and stayed high and everything was fine from then on out. Things have definitely gotten low since his birth -8 weeks- but I also just found this website and I'm excited to get started. With you knowing about it already during your pregnancy and if you can start immediately postpartum hopefully that will help you!

thank you aged_early
Thank you aged_early! Have you started this program yet? I have also heard of Maya abdominal massage helping reposition the uterus so I am looking into that but cant do it until 20 weeks or postpartum. I am having bad back pain and problems with having a bowel movement because my uterus is pressing om my rectum so much, I can't wait for it to move up! I;m happy yours did and everything was fine. Congratulations!

I just want to remind you
I just want to remind you ladies that I also had a retroverted uterus at a young age, and after having my babies, it went way up and I couldn't feel my cervix at all. But, it was still retroverted. Many more years and bad practices went by before it completely prolapsed, so doing the whole woman work now and the rest of your life is what is going to be the most beneficial for you, getting the uterus back into its proper position up over the pubic bone into the lower belly.
I want to let my experience be a warning that just because it is high and out of the way now doesn't mean it will necessarily stay that way.
Also, Christine has discussed Mayan massage on here. Put it in the search box. From what I have read, she said that it may feel good, but it is not going to help prolapse. Whole woman posture does that, with the correct anatomical positioning of the body, our organs are supported very well.
