What to do if the umbilical cord is wrapped around the fetus for one week and how to correct it

If you find that the umbilical cord has been wrapped around the neck for one week, you do not need to treat it if there is no discomfort, but if there are signs of intrauterine hypoxia and other symptoms, we suggest that you consult a doctor in a timely manner. If there is no obvious discomfort and the fetal heartbeat and movement are normal during the examination, the baby can be observed temporarily without treatment, and sometimes the baby can be corrected by its own movement. Even if it cannot be corrected, as long as you pay attention to monitoring the fetal heartbeat and movement during your checkups, it will not affect your labor and delivery. If intrauterine hypoxia is detected, you need to actively seek medical attention. If the gestational week is relatively small and the possibility of fetal survival after birth is relatively small, you should try to treat it as conservatively as possible by adopting the left lateral position, regular oxygen intake, and promoting the maturation of the fetal lungs. If the fetus is full term, or has matured, or if there is late deceleration or variant deceleration on fetal heart rate monitoring, a cesarean section should be performed to terminate the pregnancy. After the pregnant woman found that the fetal umbilical cord around the neck for one week, whether or not to choose to correct, should relax, pay attention to observation, on time to do a good job of maternity examination, encountered abnormalities in a timely manner after the medical treatment, to avoid delays in the condition of the disease, resulting in the occurrence of accidents.
