<s>[INST] Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Hi, my daughter is 41 wks and has been at 3/5 for 2 weeks, and has been told her cervix is tightly shut ! She has pain inbetween her legs sometimes and is worried that the babys head might be stuck ? This is her 2nd child.Please type your query here... [/INST] Hello,Pain in between legs mostly means pain in the vulval region and also over the pubic symphysis due to widening of the joints. Also, with cervical dystocia, a condition where the cervix does not dilate as needed during labor, pain is felt along the vagina and also over the back. This, if it happens, is not a favorable condition for normal delivery. Since your daughter has already passed full term, it is advisable to assess the pelvis for labor and also check the fetal well-being to plan further management like inducing labor to cause a vaginal birth or go for an elective abdominal delivery. Hope this helps. </s>
