I'd check her cervix. If favorable, I'd offer her a version and induction. If not...I'd probably recheck in a few days, hoping for cervical ripening and/or fetal position change. I would be worried that this represented an infant who had grown too big for the inlet, or it wouldn't have moved over.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
