how about the fact that fetal circulatory system very different to
mature (ie born already) system? & fetal haemoglobin also very different?

I haven't even thought about it! I would go with the fluid and equal
pressure theory. Being upside down in water at an adult (try it) does not
result in the same pressure as being upside down outside water.
I would take a punt at the even pressure of the fluid filled
uterus along with the baby's blood pressure adjusting naturally
to that position.

Perhaps the pressure exerted on the
baby's head by the contracting uterus aids venous return and keeps the
blood from pooling in the brain?
