CIRCULAR CORDON

CIRCULAR CORDON

Circular cord is when the umbilical cord is wrapped around some part of the fetus' body. Remembering that the cord is approximately 50 cm long. In general, babies tend to move around a lot in the womb, so they can make and break circulars at all times. The cord neck (around the neck) occurs in 25 to 30% of fetuses at birth and usually does not cause any harm, even during normal delivery. Most studies indicate that the presence of cord circular is not related to worsening fetal prognosis, with no need to change the obstetric approach.

My third baby’s cord was around her shoulder, neck and down the other shoulder like a halter top. It was spectacular to see

My son was born with the cord around his neck & that's obviously a common occurrence. But somehow, the little squirt managed to tie a knot in the cord & the Doctor said that's one that he hadn't seen before.
