The spines are actually those pointy bits on the mother's pelvis, the bits that hurt if you ride a bicyle for too long. When the midwife or doctor examines the mother he/she makes an estimate of how far above or below the spines the baby's head is. -2 means it is 2cm above the spines, this is quite low down and is a good indication that the baby is in a good position to be born. As labor progresses the head comes down and by the time it is +2 the mother is probably in the second stage of labor.
