Presentation refers to the baby’s body that leads, or is expected to lead, out of the birth canal.
There are various presentations
1. Cephalic presentation.. Baby is coming with head first
2. Breech presentation…. Buttocks first
3. Shoulder presentation…
4. Compound presentation… Many parts together
The most favorable for vaginal birth is the cephalic presentation where baby comes with the head leading
The other presentations vaginal birth is also possible but with more skills. The midwife or doctor should be experienced to avoid complications
Also know that presentation can be known through scan or abdominal examination, so you and your doctor or midwife can make an informed decision concerning your birth
In all forms of birth seek skilled birth! And yes the presentation of the baby with other factors can also determine your mode of delivery
Don’t leave your pregnancy to chance.
