PRESENTATION

The more compact a fetus is during labor, the easier it will be for a vaginal delivery. Malpositions increase the risk of operative deliveries.
Fetal positioning can be determined externally by Leopold maneuver. Fetal positioning can also be confirmed via ultrasound.

Fetal attitude
Fetal attitude is the relationship of fetal parts to each other (flexion). The more flexed the mentum is to the chest, the smaller
the diameter as it passes through the pelvis.
