Severe SPD

Today I met up with a lady at 40+1/40 weeks who had such a severe SPD that she could not lie on her back to listen to the fetus. I have to listen to the fetus in the chair only. Obviously my concern was how are we going to induce, how are we going to monitor the foetus etc.

Finally I decided to speak to senior consultant who agreed with my queries and we told her she may be better of having caesarean section even though it was a soft indication.
