I guess the baby turned spontaneously, because when the scan was doneafew days later, at 35-36 weeks, it was a vertex presentation and a double nuchal cord was seen . ( Could this have happened when the baby turned?). No, we don't routinely do third trimester scans unless a problem is suspected.However, this was presented to me as a after the fact.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
