Hi friends, I am Seema, residing in Thane Dist, near Mumbai (India). I am working with my hubby (own business), but at present taking rest as enjoying my 2nd Pregnency - 37th weeks (my EDD is 20th July, 2010)....just counting the days. Want to share my concern wid you all, as m tensed at present. My latest ultrasound report mentions "NUCHAL CORD" condition. The baby is in Vertex position (head down), but the doctor doing the sonography said that everything is normal - however, nuchal cord will result into CEASEREAN delivery. (which i don't want) Whereas, my gynac said theres nothing to worry...this is a normal condition and vaginal delivery is very much possible with nuchal cord. My 1st delivery was a normal delivery. I also read on some sites that nuchal cord condition may cause distress to the baby, which may be very harmful. Pls let me know, some more info on the same. Thanks and regards, Seema
hi dear recently my sister delivered (3rd june) with nuchal cord in baby's neck... very much normal delivery and both are fine. never get tension about this issue. your doc knows better and when she says no prrobs THEN SURELY NO PROBS. POST BABYS PHOTO SOON TO US regards mrs.n
Hi frenzs, Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with me. It really feels nice to know that IL site is so much helpful for all of us. Once again thnx for your support. Regards, Seema
Hey seema, the cord is mostly unlooped by the gyn dring delivery so yo have a very bright chances of having a normal delivery. best of luck btw, where exactly are u in thane? which hospital/doc are u seeing? i m based in Mira Road (26th week preg) love
