Please don't worry unnecessarily.
You need not repeat the scan after one week. The scan should be repeated when it is due.
Two loops of the cord around the neck at 28 weeks means nothing because ;
a) We can't unwind the cord.
b) We can't take the baby out at 28 weeks.
So we can do nothing, whatever the findings may be.
Yes, if there is consistently one or two loops of the cord around the neck upto 38 weeks, then I will not give a chance for normal delivery to that lady. She will have a Caesarean.
