i don't think that you have anything to worry about. my doctor told me the same thing about me, but i have 3 kids now and never had a miscarriage. I think that your doctor would or should tell you if something was wrong with having a tilted cervix, but from my experience i wouldn't worry too much. Good luck and congrats!

I have a tilted cervix, yet had no problems with my pregnancies or births. The OB reported that is amazingly difficulty-loose and that about a million in 5 women people have a tilted cervix. it may reason soreness for the duration of sex yet could haven't any effect on a being pregnant. The uterus will honestly straighten out because the being pregnant progresses. relax ordinary and do not fret.

I also have a tilted cervix, but had no problems with my pregnancies or births. The OB said it is very common and that about 1 in 5 women have a tilted cervix. It can cause pain during intercourse but should have no effect on a pregnancy. The uterus will actually straighten out as the pregnancy progresses. Rest easy and don't worry.

No it won't even be a bother. Most women have a tilted cervix, one way or the other. Nothing to worry about. Mine is tilted and I don't have any problems. I carried all 5 babies to term. (not at the same time) LOL

I have one and my pregnacies went fine in that concern.
I did find this online:
In most cases, a woman's uterus is positioned straight up. Sometimes the ligaments and tendons that hold the uterus in place will shorten or lengthen causing it to tilt. An anteverted uterus tilts forward toward the abdominal wall and a retroverted uterus (as in your case) tilts back towards the rectum. Whether it is tilting forward or back, a tilted uterus usually presents no problem during pregnancy. The uterus tends to straighten itself out by the second trimester as it grows and fills your lower body cavity.
In some cases, however, the uterus does not reposition. As it enlarges, it continues to push towards the back. Eventually, the baby runs out of room to grow and premature labor could occur.
I am also leaving you the link, I hope it helps
