In a ________ Birth, the Baby's Buttocks or Legs Are

Question

In a ________ birth, the baby's buttocks or legs are delivered before the head.
A) premature
B) cesarean
C) breech
D) frontal
E) None of the answers are correct.

Accepted Answer

A breech birth is when the baby is positioned with their buttocks or legs facing down, rather than their head. This can cause complications during delivery and often requires a C-section to be performed. Premature refers to a baby being born before 37 weeks gestation, and cesarean refers to a surgical delivery where the baby is delivered through an incision in the mother's abdomen. Frontal is not a term used in childbirth.
