Is It Normal To Have Large Stomach And Head Size In Foetus?

My sister is going in to have a C-section on friday. The doctors say the baby has a large stomach and a head size in the 30th percentile. They are worried about the umbilical cord wrapping around the baby. What is the problem with the baby? Will she be alright?
