Wondering why pregnant women, with all that growing weight up front, easily keep their balance preventing them from tip over?

Research shows how evolution has taken place over time where the lower vertebrae in human females have become reinforced to allow the exaggerated curved position of the spine assumed by pregnant women when they are standing upright. This position allows the trunk’s center mass to remain above the hips. Video clip shows a detailed illustration.
