The oblique lie, as the name says, indicates that your baby is in a diagonal or slanted position in the womb just before labor. Oblique fetal position/oblique fetal lie/oblique lie Flexed breech: Here one or both of the baby’s knees are bent and the buttocks and feet are at the birth canal opening.Footling breech: Baby has one or both legs near the birth canal, making its feet the fetal presentation here.Frank breech baby position: Again, baby’s bottom is near the birth canal, but here baby lies in V-shape, with its legs straight up near the head.Complete breech: Here, the baby’s bottom is above the birth canal (making it the fetal presentation if vaginal delivery was possible), knees bent, and feet close to the bottom.There are different types of breech positions – This is one of the uncommon baby positions – merely 3-4% ofĪlmost all breech fetal positions require a caesarean delivery. In this position, the baby takes up the position that is exact opposite to that of OA baby position – it settles in the head-up, feet-down position. Your doctor may analyze your situation and may recommend a C-section. In this fetal lie/fetal position, the baby is unable to tuck its chin down to fit into the birth canal as easily as OA baby position, and hence, labor can be longer here. Labor is a little more painful if the baby is in the occiput posterior position, as the mother experiences pressure on her spine. The fetal presentation in the occiput posterior position is the head, but the baby comes out face-up hence, this is also titled the sunny-side up position. Hence, the occiput posterior position/occiput posterior fetal lie is also referred to as the back-to-back position. Occiput posterior position/occiput posterior fetal lie is similar to the occiput anterior fetal lie, with the only difference being that instead of facing the mother’s back, the baby faces the mother’s belly, with its back against the mother’s back.
