25weeks pregnant with twins and baby a has a single umbilical artery. should i be concerned?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: Single umbilical artery does not necessarily pose a risk to you or your child as an umbilical cord with just one artery is sufficient to support a pregnancy to term. However, sua does increase your child’s risk for certain birth defects. Talk to your OB about this and see if you need additional workup....
