What's the yolk sac??
Hi everyone, can you help me?
We went for a scan at the weekend as some of you may know. Although I'm only 10 weeks we got to see quite a lot, and the baby was moving about like crazy! Was told everything looks fine. I saw a big blob and asked the lady what it was and she said it was the baby's yolk sac and described it as it's 'lunchbox'. I am confused as I thought the baby used the placenta??! Can someone explain what the yolk sac is for me??!
Thanks x
