Overview

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of a specific maternal position to correct fetal position in occipito-posterior during the labor.

The investigators hypothesize that the maternal position described by the Dr de Gasquet facilitate the rotation in occipito-anterior during the labor.

The calculated sample size is 438 participants (219 in each group)
