A woman asks the nurse, What protects my baby's umbilical cord from being squashed while inside of me? The nurse's best response is:
 
  1. Your baby's umbilical cord is surrounded by connective tissue called Wharton's jelly, which prevents compression of the blood vessels and ensures continued nourishment of your baby..
  2. Your baby's umbilical floats around in blood anyway..
  3. You don't need to be worrying about things like that..
  4. The umbilical cord is a group of blood vessels that are very well protected by the placenta..
