Hello!
Thanks for your query.

Cord around then neck of a baby (or what's called a "nuchal cord") is very common and usually doesn't present much of a problem.
If all the parameters are normal ,the cord around the neck of your baby isnt indication for surgery.
Please be calm and dont worry .

All the best
