[QUOTE="azure, post: 1433459, member: 39639"] To answer your question about scans, my scans checked blood flow to the placenta and resistance of the blood vessels. It was a Doppler scan, I think they called it - an extra thing they did in the second half of pregnancy. Placental function is harder to check. My consultant said there wasn't any way to spot this on a scan - which is why they recommend induction between 37 and 38'6 weeks (or earlier if concerns arise). [/QUOTE]
