Umbilical cord
Whilst my baby is inside me would it matter if the umbilical cord was around his neck? Just curious as he's not breathing his own oxygen
It would matter if it's tightly around his neck. It would do the same thing as being hanged. The bloodflow to his brain would slow/stop, causing mental retardation and possibly death.
