Excerpt from The Glasgow Medical Journal, Vol. 36: July to December, 1891 In morbid conditions the same thing is manifest. In lumbar lordosis the pelvis inclines to the vertical, in kyphosis to the horizontal. In pregnancy the inclination of the pelvis seems to vary a good deal with the individual. In some cases, and these are perhaps the most frequent, the pelvis is more vertical, the shoulders being thrown back to counterbalance the weight of the foetus in front of the spinal column. In other cases the pelvis is more horizontal, the shoulders being more forward, the weight of the foetus being balanced by this movement of the pelvis carrying the weight of the trunk farther back.
