Wondering did any mamas have issues with venous lakes?

I’ve never heard of this either. Very interesting.

I have a subchorionic hemotoma and started hemorrhaging at 17 weeks. My midwife said they can be normal. It didn’t make me high-risk. I’ve had a normal pregnancy since then. It looks very similar to this accept it’s only in one area on the left side where my placenta attached to my uterus as opposed to a pool in the center. Is it blood, fluid, or a solid mass?

Did your doctor say you have to go see him/her more often? How many ultrasounds have you had so far? I’ve had two extras just to keep an eye on it. I wouldn’t stress.

Mine was found in the 2nd trimester though and never got any bigger.

I had one in my first pregnancy and it caused no issues. In fact, they thought it was a subchorionic hematoma at first so I was sent to a high risk doctor. As soon as they determined it was a placental lake, they told me it was no big deal and would most likely cause no issues.

@taborstar12 Never heard of that. Interesting!

@lovelily,

Venous legs? I still have ugly veins in my legs from being pregnant 2 years ago. Poor circulation.
