Dear welcome to hcm and thanks for choosing us.

I share your concerns. But you should not be worried much, as it will not cause any problem at this stage of pregnancy. You still have about 8 weeks for delivery of your baby and may correct in due course of time. You keep sleeping in left lateral position . There is no way to correct it.

However at the time of delivery it may cause problems. You need to inform the doctor in advance about this and also inform to some responsible relative. Do an ultrasound scan at the time of delivery for confirmation. You may even have to go for cesarean delivery, as cord around neck may affect baby's breathing during delivery due to comression.However it depends on treating doctor.

I hope my reply will benefit you. Please write to hcm or me for follow up queries. I wish you good luck and health. Hit a thanks. Regards
