Case 12
A 28-year-old G4P3 at 40 weeks' gestation presents to labor and delivery in active
labor and ruptured membranes. Her antenatal course was complicated by diet-
controlled gestational diabetes. Her previous three pregnancies ended in vaginal
delivery at term with the largest infant weighing 4000 g. She is 150 cm tall and
weighs 100 kg. Fundal height was 42 cm, fetal heart tones were normal, and the
estimated fetal weight was 4250 g. The first stage of labor was uneventful, but
after just 10 minutes of the second stage, the fetal head delivered and promptly
retracted against the vulva (positive turtle sign). Normal traction by the operator
did not result in delivery of the anterior shoulder.
