If the umbilical cord is over the cervix during pregnancy, a condition known as cord prolapse, it can lead to complications during delivery. This situation may compress the cord, restricting blood flow and oxygen to the baby, which can result in fetal distress. In such cases, healthcare providers often monitor the situation closely and may recommend a cesarean section to ensure the safety of both the mother and the baby. Prompt medical intervention is crucial to mitigate potential risks.
