Fetal presentation: Breech, posterior, transverse lie, and more
Posterior position is formally known as "occiput posterior" because the back of your baby's skull (occipital bone) is in the back (posterior) of your pelvis. In the frank breech presentation, both the baby's legs are extended so that the feet are up near the face. This is the most common type of breech presentation.

Variations in fetal presentations include face, brow, breech, and shoulder.

Abnormal presentations include face, brow, breech, and shoulder. Occiput ...
Breech Presentation
Breech Births. In the last weeks of pregnancy, a baby usually moves so his or her head is positioned to come out of the vagina first during birth. This is called a vertex presentation. A breech presentation occurs when the baby's buttocks, feet, or both are positioned to come out first during birth. This happens in 3-4% of full-term births.
Abnormal Fetal lie, Malpresentation and Malposition
Abnormal Fetal Lie. If the fetal lie is abnormal, an external cephalic version (ECV) can be attempted - ideally between 36 and 38 weeks gestation. ECV is the manipulation of the fetus to a cephalic presentation through the maternal abdomen. It has an approximate success rate of 50% in primiparous women and 60% in multiparous women.

Presentation of twins in Der Rosengarten ("The Rose Garden"), a German standard medical text for midwives published in 1513. In obstetrics, the presentation of a fetus about to be born specifies which anatomical part of the fetus is leading, that is, is closest to the pelvic inlet of the birth canal.According to the leading part, this is identified as a cephalic, breech, or shoulder presentation.
What is malpresentation?

At full term, around 3%-4% of births are breech. The different types of breech presentations include: Complete: The fetus's knees are bent, and the buttocks are presenting first. Frank: The fetus's legs are stretched upward toward the head, and the buttocks are presenting first. Footling: The fetus's foot is showing first.
Fetal presentation: how twins' positioning affects delivery
This fetal presentation is the most promising for a vaginal delivery because both twins are head-down. Twins can change positions, but if they're head-down at 28 weeks, they're likely to stay that way. When delivering twins vaginally, there is a risk that the second twin will change position after the delivery of the first.
