Had to look that up. Umbilical cord prolapse is a condition during the last stages of pregnancy in which the umbilical cord descends into the vagina prematurely. This most often occurs after the membranes have ruptured and the baby moves into the birth canal for delivery.
I've never given birth, so I wouldn't know.

@Carla1951 Thanks for clearing it up! Sounds troubling.

@kayoshin I am fairly certain your Obstetrician keeps watch

@Carla1951 I'm pretty sure it can't happen to me, with being male and all :)
