If the fetus is in transverse position, pregnant women can take the left side of the lying position, thus reducing the degree of uterine right rotation, but also improve the symptoms of uterine enlargement compression of the inferior vena cava, thus promoting the blood circulation of the fetus, to ensure that the fetus enough oxygen and nutrient supply. Due to the early and mid-pregnancy, the uterine cavity space is relatively large, the amount of amniotic fluid is also relatively large, the fetus can be rotated with the body, fetal position changes at any time, the fetal transverse position is also temporary will change at any time, the sleeping position does not have special requirements. However, in late pregnancy, due to the smaller space in the uterine cavity, the amount of amniotic fluid becomes less, the fetal position rotation becomes smaller, the fetus is relatively fixed, if the fetus is still in the transverse position, you can follow the doctor’s advice to take the knee-chest position, to promote the fetus to rotate the fetal position. If the fetus is still in transverse position, cesarean section is needed to remove the fetus.
