What are the position of uterus after delivery?

After delivery, the uterus typically contracts and begins to shrink in size, returning to its non-pregnant state. Immediately postpartum, it is positioned high in the abdomen but gradually descends into the pelvic cavity over the next few days. By about six weeks postpartum, the uterus usually returns to its normal position and size, located within the pelvis. Proper involution is important for recovery and to reduce the risk of complications such as hemorrhage.
