Getting pregnant with a prolapse
Just found out that I have a prolapse but was planning on trying for a second soon and I’m quite gutted about potentially having to put conceiving off for who knows how long while I heal. I understand the logic in waiting but want to know whether anyone has got pregnant with a prolapse and how did they find their pregnancy? Is it manageable?

Oh god I’m sorry to hear that, I hope you’re healed now. What made you notice after the third pregnancy?
I noticed after my 2nd that my uterus never went back to where it belonged. My cervix was always hard to find before and during my 1st pregnancy but after vaginally delivering my 8 lb baby it was about 2" from my vaginal opening. After my 2nd it was about an inch and after my 3rd you could visibly see my uterus. After my 2nd tampons were very painful and hard to properly put in since my uterus was in the way

My uterus prolapsed after my 1st but didn't realize it until after my 3rd. I got pregnant fairly easy both times, 2nd time was even with twins but lost one early on due to a hemorrhage. Pregnancy with a prolapse can be done but it's quite painful as the baby will be carried low in your pelvis the entire 9 months. Remember all the discomfort of the last trimester? This will be your entire pregnancy. I ended up having a hysterectomy 10 months after my 3rd was born as it's the best way to "fix" a prolapse.
