The placenta, your baby's first mother, this amazing organ is responsible for keeping your baby well nourished. The placenta during pregnancy sits along the uterine wall receiving all the necessary nutrients and oxygen from the mothers blood flowing pass at specific exchange sites, it also acts as a filter to rid any nasties before transporting the baby's now nutrient and oxygen rich blood to the baby via the umbilical cord.
This live to air on 99.9 Bay Fm episode of Pregnancy Birth and Beyond is all about this amazing organ that sustains the life of the unborn child, yet its purpose does not end there at the birth of the placenta... Have you ever felt a scene of lacking purpose, not being grounded, or knowing where you belong... perhaps the answer is in how your placenta was discarded or revered. We also share the history of eating placenta, placenta encapsulation, traditional rituals and modern things that you can do with your babies placenta.
