When you’re at the last stage of your pregnancy or about to your due date, your baby grows rapidly and doesn't have enough space in your uterus to move properly.

During the course of nine months, the baby moves into several different positions. Some of the most common positions are given below.

Several Baby’s Positions in Womb:1. Anterior Position:- This is the best position for delivery. In this, your baby’s head is down and his face is towards your back. Your baby’s chin is tucked into his chest, facing the mother’s back. The chances are higher to get into this position when the labour starts, generally 33 to 36 weeks of pregnancy. When the labor starts the narrowest part of the head can press on the cervix and open it for delivery.
