Term to describe: A uterus is somewhat shaped like an inverted pair, the terms you list describe where your placenta is on your uterus and what position your baby is in. Placenta anterior means the placenta's on the front part, low lying means it's closer to the lower part instead of up in the domed part.Breech legs extended means your baby is upright with his head toward the dome part like he was standing.

Anterior placenta: Tis is describing where the baby's placenta is implanted on the wall of the uterus - yours is low lying, on the anterior, or belly button side of the uterus, and is in a breech position - head up, body down - that is ok at 26 weeks. The anterior low-lying placenta could be a problem with bleeding in labor, called placenta previa - please discuss with your OB for more information
