Cord around the neck of the baby may prevent the decent of the baby for normal delivery. Baby can be delivered by normal delivery but it depends on the progress of labor.If it is not possible to decent,should go for C-section. Final decision would be of Gynecologist as per condition of foetus and progress of labor...
