During the last few weeks of pregnancy, most babies move into an anterior position, which is the best position for vaginal birth.

Babies change position in pregnancy and during the birth process. If a woman's womb is relatively balanced, then getting into gravity-friendly positions during pregnancy can help a breech baby to flip head down or a posterior baby to scoot over to the mother's left side and face her right hip.
