Dear sir,I understand your concern.the report is saying that cord loops are seen on the back and sides of fetal neck.you need not worry about that .that is normal.we need to think when there are cord loops around the neck.in that case also loose cord loops are also of not significance.but sometimes tight cord loops may cause delay or prevent the descent of fetus during labour.so in your case they are just side of neck but not around so relax.
