Fetal sensory-elicited body movements differ in breech compared to cephalic position

Behavior was examined in 28 near term fetuses in the breech versus cephalic position. Breech fetuses had fewer body movements to a vibroacoustic stimulus and more to an airborne sound. These findings raise the possibility of differential perceptual experience before birth. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals,...
