Causes for cord around the neck during pregnancy?please mention tips for avoiding this condition
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not unusual. : Cord around neck caused by movement of the fetus in utero. Very common. No way to prevent. Ultrasound can show this. OB's will evaluate for a tight cord around neck near time of delivery. Talk to your OB/GYN to discuss your concerns.
