The varied apperance of the umbilical cord at birth can be related to its water content. There are associated changes histologically in all layers of the cord, but especially in Wharton''s jelly. Quantimet analysis confirms these findings and highlights a small group where dual pathology may exist. The relationship between edematous cords, large drip volume and respiratory distress in the newborn is considered and a possible explanation for reduced placental transfusion and low red cell mass in these babies is proffered.
