Re: prolapsed umbilical cord
I have to get weekly biophysicals and NST's now because my cord is down before the baby's head. She said if my water breaks right now, I have to get to the hospital immediately for a c-section. I wanted to see if this happened to anyone and was it detected before hand or if it was, if the cord moved!

i am sorry, that is very scary i didn't know they could see that on a sono! do you have a scheduled c-section?

Re: prolapsed umbilical cord
it's great that they caught it before it becomes an emergency! good luck to you! I would think they would schedule a C section early , no?

Re: prolapsed umbilical cord
She said if it doesn't move on its own then I will have to schedule a c-section. I am 32 weeks and she wants me to go for weekly biophysicals and NST's and then at 36 weeks I have another sonogram appt. and then we will make a decision then about c-section or not.
Of course I started Lamaze today and asked the lady and now I feel like a freak b/c she said and everything I read says this is very very very rare!
