u mean in the womb??

i was told if only once wrapped around it is not so bad as the cord is flexible. my big son was born with the cord once around his neck and nothing happened. my friends son had the cord around his neck three times and that caused a lack of oxygen during birth. but he is fine and there are no problems now.

it depends on the severity of the problem..if cord is tight around the neck and the baby's head is not getting fixed, it can lead to blue baby, falling heart beat, brain damage, and even death.
