Hello,
Pain in between legs mostly means pain in the vulval region and also over the pubic symphysis due to widening of the joints. Also, with cervical dystocia, a condition where the cervix does not dilate as needed during labor, pain is felt along the vagina and also over the back. This, if it happens, is not a favorable condition for normal delivery. Since your daughter has already passed full term, it is advisable to assess the pelvis for labor and also check the fetal well-being to plan further management like inducing labor to cause a vaginal birth or go for an elective abdominal delivery. Hope this helps.
