How do you know in advance if you have a small pelvis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exam to estimate: The only way to be sure your pelvis is big enough for your baby is to try to push the baby through it at the end of labor. The size can be estimated by a type of physical exam called clinical pelvimetry but this is only an estimate.
