Question

Meredith in labor for the first time she had a normal pregnancy and good prenatal care labor preceded normal until she was dilated to 4 cm since that point no progress has taken place it has been 12 hours meredith is tired and frustrated the fetus demonstrates no stress as of yet meredith is scheduled for a c-section

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A C-section scheduled for Meredith is best for her. A dilation of 4cm can't proceed with normal labor. Being in labor for 12 hours is dangerous for the mother and fetus. Even if the fetus demonstrates no stress yet, it is safer to have a C-section for Meridith to keep the mother and fetus in good status.
