When does the uterus go back into the pelvis? Here’s the timeline of your uterus’ journey after birth: • Immediately after birth: Uterus is about the size of a large grapefruit and sits around the level of the belly button • By day 7–10: It has shrunk enough to drop back fully into the pelvis • By 6 weeks: It’s very close to pre-pregnancy size and weight • By 8–12 weeks: Tissues continue to remodel and strengthen (the quiet behind-the-scenes work) So the pelvis doesn’t get handed back overnight.

This can also relieve some of the pressure on the mother's diaphragm, making it easier for her
