Cx: C/2-3/-1????

Could anyone let me know what 'Cx: C/2-3/-1' stands for?

I am a little bit confused.

Cx = Cervix

C=???

2-3= dilated 2-3cm

-1= station

Am I right???

Where I work we also use "C" as completely effaced. So on the board, it can look like: C/C/+1 for example, meaning Completely dilated and completely effaced, and +1 station.

Sometimes we'll even say, "She's complete, complete, +1"

We have a doc who's originally from NYC (I'm in CA) who also says "She's fully"....all meaning the same thing. I think sometimes it's a part of the country thing.
