Perspectives
The study revealed that mothers with complex anatomic stature at term pregnancy should opt for planned cesarean birth to avoid complications. Relatively large maternal WHR and advance age and fetal macrosomia could prolong 2nd phase of labor, and easily predispose a baby boy to abnormal Apgar score. The study emphasized on the need of a fetal sex specific state-of-the-art anthropometric investigation at term pregnancy.
