g1, 39 weeks. To triage for r/o SROM and labor. Hooked her up, ctx q2-3min. Nitrazine swab of perineum equivocal, but ferns seen and then large amounts of fluid. All good. SO we know she'll be an admit.
I go to do a SVE. I don't feel a firm head-I feel nubs. 3 small nubs(for lack of a better term). My first thought, literally, was "What the fudge is that? That is NOT a head!" WHen I spread my fingers apart to assess dilation (she was 7, btw) it was so strange b/c I could feel 2 things (legs, i assume)moving back and forth. and there was so much room inside the cervix without the head right there.
I had never felt a breech before, much less been the one to discover it first. This pt thought she was vertex, and had been 2 weeks before when she had an SVE.
Totally wild.
