Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mrs. Floyd's accentuated lumbar curvature during pregnancy is likely due to lordosis. This is also known as "swayback" and is a common spinal curvature that occurs when the lumbar spine curves inward too much, causing the buttocks and abdomen to protrude forward. This is a common condition during pregnancy as the additional weight and changes in hormones can affect the curvature of the spine.
