9th month scan
Hi mam,
In my 9th month growth scan, I noticed Single loop of cord around one side of the neck. Does that mean the cord is round the neck or near the neck? Please tell me

It is a very common finding. It doesn't always mean a cord around the neck.
If you go into labour and have a smooth progress then there is no problem.
If you have a prolonged labour then we have to find a cause and take further action.
