Lol ok so this is a lot of info, but for those who check their CP I am curious...

I saw someone post on here once about a tipped cervix, and I can find a TON of information online about tipped and tilted uteruses (which I already know I have a very retroverted uterus), but I can't find hardly ANY information about a tilted/tipped cervix.  SO

DOES the opening of your cervix face the front of your vaginal wall (towards your front), the back of your vaginal wall (um, towards your butt?) or the right or left???  Or is it straight down?  What is normal and what is not?

I ask because when I was checking my CP (which I haven't done in two weeks for fear of messing this pregnancy up), I had to like, reach around this like, bump (?) which I think was my cervix, to find the opening to see if it was closed, medium or open.  It faces so far towards the back that if my cervix was high sometimes it was impossible to reach the cervical opening.  :) so help me figure this out...

take the poll, fill me in on the info I dont know.  Thanks!

I am pretty sure mine faces more towards the back.  but it does seem to change, when its low it seems more centered, but when its high it does get harder to check if its open or not.  I just started checking..so i am not really sure!
