Malposition

The correct order of normal output should be first from the head. If the lower body is first produced, or even the shoulders, arms and other parts are produced first, it is called "fetal malposition". The most common is the so-called buttock position, that is, the direction of the buttocks toward the cervix and the birth canal. Others, such as oblique or horizontal position (shoulder or trunk part facing the birth canal), are less, but the risk is not small. This is only the roughest classification. In fact, only those who give birth in the back of the head is the easiest way to produce. Other methods are likely to cause more or less danger or prolonged labor during the production process.
