Single artery umbilical cord

Hey! Just had my 20 week scan and they have seen that I have a single artery (instead of 2) in the umbilical cord. They have explained what this means and I will just be checked more regularly for growth. As I’m under foetal medicine anyway, they have been watching the pregnancy closely and can’t see anything to worry about (like heart defects or growth) so I feel happier but wondered if anyone else has been told the same? Thanks xx
