What symptom does pregnant woman have in fetal death abdomen

summary

If the umbilical cord is really tightly around the baby's body, or the loose umbilical cord is compressed when the baby is moving, it may cause excessive pressure on the umbilical cord blood vessels. Will it increase the risk of fetal death? Let's take a look at the following.

What symptom does pregnant woman have in fetal death abdomen

First: from the clinical research data, this possibility should be small. In May last year, a document published by an Israeli scholar in the United States pointed out that three-dimensional ultrasound found that 62% of the fetuses had umbilical cord around a certain part of the body when they were 13 to 16 weeks pregnant, of which 43% had cord around the neck! After 13 weeks of pregnancy, only 1% of the fetuses had miscarriage and mortality, which was far lower than the incidence of umbilical cord around the neck.

Second, the position of the umbilical cord will change with the fetal activity, and the umbilical cord around the neck may only be temporary. In addition, the umbilical cord can not only wrap around the neck, but also around the body, hands and feet, which is really "changeable"! Therefore, it is difficult to believe that the umbilical cord around the neck is an important reason for fetal death.

Third, some literatures have found that cases of umbilical cord around the neck may slightly increase the chance of abnormal fetal heartbeat, instrument assisted delivery or cesarean section.

matters needing attention

Umbilical cord around the neck or around a part of the body, is a very common phenomenon, should not increase the risk of fetal death.
