A. A proper clarity on the situation would be provided by a gynaecologist whatever doubts you have associated with that kindly check with your doctor and the doctor would be built to help you in clearing volume down associated with that

A. yes..it may .. you should consult with fetal medicine expert . they have some advanced scan for fetal .. because this can affect baby's kidney and heart dovelpment . and be concerned about baby's movement . never sleep on your back . and don't be tensed .. it's not necessary that it will harm your baby but there are some percentage of risk with this . I had my second daughter with Single Umbilical cord and now she is one year old and absolutely good. and please consult with fetal medicine expert asap. they can suggest you better.
