Hi. Usually one loop of cord around the neck is not too risky. The problems the cord may cause are - 1) might become tight when the baby tries to come down in labour and strangulate the baby causing drops in the baby heart beats 2) might hold the baby up and prevent the baby from coming down during labour.
