When many pregnant mothers go to the hospital for examination, they are told that their babies have an umbilical cord around the neck is very nervous, in fact, the fetal treasure umbilical cord around the neck is more common.
Umbilical cord around the neck refers to the umbilical cord around the neck of the fetus, most of which are wrapped around one to two weeks, and it is rare to wrap around the neck for more than three weeks.
The fetal umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck, will the pregnant mother feel it?
There will be no sensation, no reaction, no sensation when the fetal umbilical cord wraps around the neck without affecting the normal growth of the fetus.
Only by ultrasound examination can it be determined:
After the umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck, it can be seen on the B ultrasound that a U-shaped pressure mark or a W-type pressure mark can be seen on the neck of the fetus.
If the U-shaped pressure mark is one circle, the W-type is two turns, and if the U-shaped plus W is three times around the neck.
Why does the fetal treasure occur in the mother's womb and wrap the umbilical cord around the neck?
Cord is too long: umbilical cord length is the main influencing factor of umbilical cord around the neck, generally full-term pregnancy umbilical cord length of 30-100cm, more than 100cm we call the umbilical cord is too long. The longer the umbilical cord, the greater the chance of circumference around the neck.
Frequent fetal movement: when the baby is active in the womb, it is very likely that the umbilical cord will be wrapped around the neck by itself, which is a very common phenomenon, and the probability of the lively fetal treasure occurring around the neck is relatively large.
If there is too much amniotic fluid or the fetus is small, the baby will have more space to move in the womb and is prone to umbilical cord wrapping around the neck.
What are the effects of umbilical cord circumference on fetal treasure?
Causing the decline of the fetal first exposed part to be obstructed, the umbilical cord around the neck can make the umbilical cord relatively shorter, affecting the fetal first exposure into the basin, which can lead to prolongation or stagnation of labor.
When the number of fetal cords around the neck is too large, the umbilical cord is easily squeezed, affecting the blood circulation of the fetus, and the oxygen delivery is blocked, which will cause the fetus to be hypoxic.
There is no way to solve the umbilical cord around the neck, after checking out the fetal treasure umbilical cord around the neck, pregnant mothers do not have to be nervous, what can be done?
The cord around the neck is worried that the blood circulation in the umbilical cord is blocked during the neck circumference, so in the case of unable to supply blood smoothly, it will cause suffocation after the fetus is hypoxicized.
The fetal umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck for a week, very common, do not have too much pressure, do not need to intervene, will not affect the baby's blood oxygen supply, and maybe the fetal treasure behind itself re-wrapped out, .
It is also not uncommon for the umbilical cord to wrap around the neck for two weeks. If the pelvis is normal, the umbilical cord can be wrapped around for two weeks. Pregnant mothers should pay attention to fetal movement at home, if there is fetal movement that lasts for 1 hour or disappears frequently, consider the possibility of fetal hypoxia, and should go to the hospital in time for examination. Fetal movement is a way for mothers to monitor their own health, and mothers must learn the correct way to pay attention to and count fetal movements.
If the umbilical cord wraps around the neck for three or more weeks, the more circles it makes, the higher the danger. In addition to several fetal movements, you can also do fetal heart rate monitoring every day, and fetal heart rate monitoring can more intuitively determine whether the fetus is hypoxic. Normal fetal heart rate monitoring generally means that the baby is in good intrauterine condition and has no hypoxia. Seek medical attention in time when fetal movements or monitoring abnormalities are found. Regularly go to the hospital for obstetric examinations, and if the fetal head is found to be delayed after full term, consider a caesarean section under the doctor's arrangement.
During the fetal treasure around the neck, how can the pregnant mother correctly count the fetal movements?
The commonly used method of counting fetal movements in 12 hours first divides 12 hours into three time periods, and selects one hour of fetal movement in the morning, middle and evening. The value is multiplied by 4, which is the fetal dynamics of the current period. In general, it is normal to move more than 30 times in 12 hours.
