My son was born with the cord around his neck three times. I was a bartender and did a lot of reaching for glasses and bottles. My doc said that it had nothing to do with reaching. It has to do with the baby's positioning and movement.

actual not. that is elementary experience if u truly imagine about it. Your toddler is in a muscular sack low on your abdomen. How ought to raising your fingers, that are literally not correct for your uterus in besides, over your head reason the umbilical cord to at least one way or the different bypass and wrap itself round your toddlers neck? Plus, a toddler doesn't breath with the help of the airways, he receives his oxygen with the help of the blood from the umbilical cord, so even being round his neck can not damage him. It in elementary words causes a situation at start with the potential of the cord being compressed at start, yet you clinical specialist will be on the look out for that. only an previous different halves tale.

no, its not true, I have three kids and I can guarantee that I lifted my arms above my head with all of them. Not one of them had the umbilical cord around their neck.

No.
That myth was actually featured on the DiscoveryHealth channel this morning!
So raise your arms all you want. Discovery also said women used to believe the same thing about stepping over a rope or string. Think about that version of it and you realize how silly it is. How could that possibly affect your baby?
So no worries!

Is the umbilical cord attached to the mother's arms?
If not attached to arms, no it is not possible.

No, that's an old wives tale. A baby is safer in the womb that we think.

Don't be daft!
if that happens, it isn't due to raising your arms above your head.

Ummm..... NO. It's just an old wives tale. Why people still believe this one, I will never know.
