My supply increases at night because we have reverse cycled since he was 6 months old. </p> <p>So if she is truly nursing all night long, your body will make more at night. When you switch back to days, your body will make that change too. It's pretty cool what our bodies can do.</p> <p>Pump weaning was one of the best days of my life! Congrats on almost being there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-reverse-cycle-do-you-need-to-pump-more-frequently-during-the-day#post-247327 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 14:48:00 +0000 T.H.O.U. 247327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter was ill this week and has been nursing almost non stop at night (co-sleeping). I was so happy that I was down to one pumping session at work and really looking forward to quitting the pump in a few weeks when she turned 1. </p> <p>If she needs more milk during the night, do I need to pump more at work? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166725 Wed, 23 May 2012 19:00:23 +0000 kodybear 166725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JessLC: me too! i don't have to pee that much more than before pregnancy. and i think i'm just peeing more cause im drinking more water. so i agree! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166724 Wed, 23 May 2012 18:58:39 +0000 kodybear 166724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sulli301: i think it just tilts straight up, cause i think normal uterus's (the ones that tip forward) will also tilt straight up as the baby grows. so i *think* no matter which way ur tipped, it'll eventually be straight up (or close to straight) around the end of the first trimester. haha i hope i didn't just make that up. but i think thats what i found on dr. google. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166723 Wed, 23 May 2012 18:55:59 +0000 SleepyMonkey 166723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i have one too. i don't know if one has anything to do with another, but i did not experience the frequent peeing that everyone talks about in the first trimester. i was wondering if it had to do with the position of my uterus. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166716 Wed, 23 May 2012 18:43:04 +0000 missifu 166716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me too me too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166707 Wed, 23 May 2012 18:29:01 +0000 MamaMoose 166707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My best friend had this. She said it hasn't presented any problems for her through two pregnancies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166694 Wed, 23 May 2012 18:11:59 +0000 sulli301 166694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: haha yeah I'm 25 &amp; I just mentioned that because I've been going to the OB since I was 18 &amp; I've never heard that before! LOL</p> <p>@Mrsbells: yes! tilted, reversed, retroverted are all the same </p> <p>@kodybear: interesting! thanks :) Does it tilt to "normal" at 10-12 weeks? i read that online but was unsure of what that meant. I didn't know enough to ask questions until I googled it &amp; now I have questions for next appointment!</p> <p>@mrskc: huh! I have no idea if anyone in my family has one, I'll ask my mom </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166691 Wed, 23 May 2012 18:07:43 +0000 mrskc 166691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep I was told I have one at my ultrasound at 7 weeks. The tech said there's nothing wrong with having one and they can actually run in families. My grandma had one too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166660 Wed, 23 May 2012 17:18:47 +0000 kodybear 166660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: yep! its tilted backwards. </p> <p>i have one. the only difference in pregnancy is that it may take longer to hear the heartbeat with a doppler. but i was able to find the heartbeat at 11 wks 3 days which is pretty normal. the uterus should straighten up to normal after the first trimester tho so maybe you got it after your last pregnancy? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166653 Wed, 23 May 2012 17:13:34 +0000 Mrsbells 166653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I dont know what retroverted uterus means either. Does it mean its tipped back? Because I found out my uterus was tilted backwards and I only discovered that when I was 6 weeks pregnant </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166625 Wed, 23 May 2012 16:50:13 +0000 chopsuey 166625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never heard of a retroverted uterus! Had no idea you were only 25! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/retroverted-uterus#post-166561 Wed, 23 May 2012 15:29:53 +0000 sulli301 166561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Today my doctor told me I had a retroverted uterus &amp; I said "wait really?!" I'm 25 years old &amp; no OBGYN has ever told me that! He was my doctor for DD &amp; maybe he said it, but if he did I certainly didn't hear him. I heard that it can happen with childbirth, but he made it sound like I was probably born with it. He said it was like red hair or green eyes &amp; about 1 in 5 women has them. Anyone else? </p>
