What is the cause of a twisted umbilical cord?Is this report that my umbilical cord is twisted?The ultrasound was done at 23 weeks and then the 4D was done without saying the cord was twisted, both done on the same day and the doctor didn't say there was a problem.Can the baby turn back on its own?Two pictures, the first is the ordinary ultrasound, the second is the four-dimensional, four-dimensional ultrasound to do the report out of the small three days
Condition Analysis:
I saw your ultrasound, the first one shows the fetal position is normal, the fetus is still small, since the ultrasound shows the umbilical cord is twisted.You need to pay attention to the fetal movement yourself.The twisted umbilical cord can easily cause the risk of fetal death in utero.When you reach 32 weeks, you can rent a remote fetal heartbeat to strengthen monitoring and come to the hospital in time if there is any problem.
Condition Analysis:
Hello, the umbilical cord is similar to twine and can be twisted 6~11 times.A few people may twist the cord too many times, which is called cord torsion in medical science.But you are 28 weeks pregnant and your abdominal circumference is only 77 cm, are you on the thin side?From the ultrasound the baby development is in line with the gestational week, and the 4-dimensional small three days is also the normal growth range allowed.
Condition Analysis:
Based on the description of the situation alone, first of all, you need to explain to you that he while in the uterine cavity is non-stop fetal movement, in the process, look forward to a certain degree of distortion, to be exact, should be called torsion, which is generally a normal physiological phenomenon.
Guidance:
If the degree of torsion is within a certain range, it usually does not affect the function of the umbilical cord, but if it is excessive, it may affect the function of the umbilical cord, which is called excessive torsion of the umbilical cord.Based on your ultrasound examination alone, it only indicates that the umbilical cord is twisted, but the number of turns cannot be determined, and it cannot be determined that the umbilical cord is excessively twisted.
