So I'm 32weeks and my OB was non chalantly talking to me and mentions another ultrasound at 36wks ( to keep an eye on things ). Then says for the marginal cord . Im like what is that ? And then my OB was like oh we've been keeping an eye on it seems like baby's growth is okay for now though.

Well i guess marginal cord insertion is when the cord is grown off to the side of placenta instead of in the center . Which when you (google it) worst idea ever it will give you a heart attack !

Complications such as ...

Pre term birth

Low birth weight

may include excessive hemorrhage during childbirth and decreased blood supply to the fetus, which may affect fetal growth and development

outcome is generally good in a majority of cases. However, complications can develop which may be avoided through an elective C-section delivery

If the marginal insertion is present in the cervical outlet of the uterus, they may rupture during early labor. This can result in stillbirth. This condition is known as vasa previa

So now I'm extra worried !

They acted so casual in office

When i wasn't even aware ..

Do any of you ladies have this ?

Or have you ?

Was child birth okay?

Did you have to have a c-section ?
