7. What is your assessment of the progress of labor at 14:00?
Labor is progressing satisfactorily. This is shown by the third X having moved
closer to the alert line. The head, which has rotated from the left occipito-posterior
to the left occipito-anterior position, is also engaged. A spontaneous vertex
delivery may be expected within an hour.
