Umbillical Cord Gallery
During our three unassisted births we have left the umbillical cord uncut for two hour during our first birth and until it detached during the lotus births of Yana and Dobri. There are many options for treating the umbillical cord and the placenta. Here you will learn about them, as well as problems that might occur with the umbillical cord and solutions.
Two Vessel Umbilical CordSo, your doctor saw a two-vessel umbilical cord and had a worried look. You are so anxious and afraid that something is going wrong with the baby. ok, just relax. The appearance of a two-vessel umbilical cord does not mean that there will be a problem with the baby. The chances are high that your baby is healthy and will be born perfect.
2 Vessel Umbilical CordIf your baby has a 2 vessel umbillical cord, you need to be very careful. You need to be more relaxed and take it easy than usual, take walks in fresh air, make breathing exercises and take plenty of liquids and fresh water. Your baby should not be stressed out.
Baby Umbillical CordBaby umbilical cord is in most cases cut immediately after birth or shortly after birth. We have discussed lotus birth and the options to let the cord dry by itself and fall off. However many people prefer to cut the baby umbilical cord early and want to know how to care for it afterwards..
Umbilical Cord ProlapseUmbilical cord prolapse is quite a rare occurrence -- in four out of a thousand deliveries. The reason you have heard about it and are worried is because it is associated with fetal mortality.
Umbilical Cord Around NeckUmbilical cord around neck is quite a rare occurrence -- in four out of a thousand deliveries. The reason you have heard about it and are worried is because it is associated with fetal mortality.
Umbilical Cord AbnormalitiesUmbilical cord abnormalities are many and some of no clinical significance, such as the false knots, others can cause fetal mortality, such as vasa previa. Many of the umbilical cord complications can be diagnoses still in utero now as the prenatal ultrasound has become more sophisticated.
Velamentous Insertion of Umbilical CordVelamentous insertion of umbilical cord is insertion of the cord away from the edge of the placenta. The vessels of the umbilical cord pass across the surface of the membranes between the membrane building the amniotic sac that surrounds and protects the embryo and the membrane that exists between the fetus and the mother and allows transfer of nutrients from the maternal blood to the fetal blood.
Umbilical Cord HerniaUmbilical cord hernia is the protrusion of a part of intestine through the weaker part of the skin in the abdominal wall. This takes place usually under the belly button.
Umbilical Cord Cyst Umbilical cord cysts are growth or outpockets which develop anywhre along the cord connecting the fetus to the placenta. More common are the cysts which appear at the end of the cord close to the fetus.
Single Artery Umbilical CordSingle artery umbilical cord occurs in 1 out of 100 singleton pregnancies and in 1 out of 20 in twins and multiples. Single artery umbilical cord occurs more often in fetal demise than in live births.
Short Umbilical CordShort umbilical cord is indicative of less fetal movement. It is thought that the length of the umbilical cord depends on the intrauterine movement. If the baby does not move, the cord is short. The normal human umbilical cord reaches 60-70 cm. or even more. The length of the umbilical cord has no effect on the fetal blood flow. However, a long umbilical cord is considered more dangerous as it can be knotted, entangled aroung the fetus and the neck, or prolapse out of uterus during delivery.

If your baby is being born in hospital or through cesaerean and the cord is cut for any reason. You can consider donating umbilical cord blood.
