The scan report says that the cord is close to the nape , will the cord have chances to tie around the baby's neck ?please clear my doubt

Hi nanbri,

It is possible that it may loop baby's neck, but it likely will not. However, please note that even if it were to occur, it would not be very unusual and it most often would not cause a problem. The cord is very flexible and seldom does it cause a concern. Your doctor or midwife would just slide it back off during birth.
