Two Vessel Umbilical Cord

Did anyone have this diagnosis, and did it have any effect on the baby? We have to get a fetal echocardiogram because baby did not cooperate at the level II and just wanted some input!! TIA

Re: Two Vessel Umbilical Cord

My nephew had a two vessel umbilical cord. My sister was sent to madonna in mineola and had sonos every week to keep checking on the baby. I had spoken to a few sono techs at my job about and some have said they seen a few times. They just like to keep an eye on the babys kidneys to make sure they develop.

eta: my nephew is almost 2 and very healthy

Re: Two Vessel Umbilical Cord

Thanks ladies. The worst thing I did was google this and find all the bad info about it. But hearing all these great healthy baby stories makes it a bit better. We go for the echo next Monday and another level II after that. Hopefully between the two, it can put my mind at some type of ease. This is our first, and any little movement or pain I get nervous. Thank you to everyone for your help. I'll keep you updated!!
