Just had a scan and was told I've got some placental lakes in the placenta. The consultant is going to refer me for some growth scans just to keep an eye on the baby's weight.
I'm currently 21 weeks. What are placental lakes? Why would someone get them? Are they bad? I can't find a lot online.
I did ask at my scan, she just said they're usually caused by smoking but I don't smoke and neither does my husband. I said that's a bit weird since we don't smoke and she just said they can be caused by other things but never went into detail.
This is my third baby (and my last) baby 1 was 8lbs 6oz and number 2 was 9lbs 4oz so I've had good sized babies
