My nephew is 3 and still has them, they arnt as prominent(sp?) but they are still there..

Any other stories to share? Would be great to hear some more so that those starting this year (Meee!!!) will have more of an understanding as to what goes on and what to look out for?!

I have a couple more I could post....if only I could remember the details, my brain seems to be on strike right now.

I will have a think and see if I can remember what they are.

I remembered one lol.

I learnt the other day that a placenta has a vein running through it linking the inside sections together...sorry can't for the life of me think what they are called....someone please help me out with that.

I had never realised that, I knew there were usually two veins in the cord, but not any on the inside of the placenta.
