postion and fetal occiput posterior position



avoid this kind of position during antepartum... it just sinks your fetal head with its occiput resting on the hallow of your sacrum! *

Sims’ posture on the same side as the fetal spine is recommended during labor to enhance rotation from occiput posterior to occiput anterior. JOGNN, 36, 135-143; 2007.

* If pregnant women are leaning backwards all of the time, or for a great deal of their time, then the next heaviest part of the baby is the backbone........which will tend to flip around to give a posterior presentation.
