Hi,welcome to HCM.
I understand your query and concern. Your scan showed a single loop around the neck of your baby. In my opinion your doctor is right. You should wait till your due date. Then you can get a scan done again, if the loop will be still around the neck then you can go with your doctor's opinion that time because she will be able to see your situation that time.

Hope this helps you.
Wish you good health & good luck.

Thanks.
