A breech presentation happens when the buttocks or the feet of a fetus, instead of its head, face the birth canal. Because the buttocks and feet may not provide a sufficient wedge to dilate the birth canal, there is more risk of harm to the baby during delivery. For this reason, most doctors prefer to deliver a baby with breech presentation by cesarean section.
