"Umbilical Cord Varix is an abnormal dilatation of the umbilical vein within the umbilical cord. The term 'varix' indicates an abnormal enlargement of a blood vessel."

I got the call back from the doctor. Apparently it is something they see fairly often. She said they don't seem too concerned about it. They actual concern is that my fluid levels are bouncing and they want to make sure baby is getting what she needs. I have the NST set for Wednesday and we will go on about the results afterwards; they don't want me to go over my due date but they may not push to go before, so I may be able to just do it ON my due date. I am feeling a lot of relief. Baby girl is still moving around a lot and growing on time so I can relax. Doctor wants me to walk as much as possible to try to progress in hopes she will come before having to do that, though.
