Who would have thought those could be connected?

But the other month as part of our book club discussion somehow I brought up that some women eat their placentas after birth. My friends found this somewhat revolting.

I assured them, I could never do that either. BUT, next time*** I think I would definitely plan on drying it and having it encapsulated so I could take pills of my placenta. Surprisingly, they didn’t find this an enjoyable option either. But for moms who have had post partum issues, it is a great option. A wonderful way to help regulate your hormones after birth.

I am going to send them this link from People Magazine.   Afterbirth for Dinner to prove I don’t make these things up AND I am not the only person out there who would do such an interesting thing to her own placenta. 

*** There will probably never be a next time, but if there is I have great plans for all I will do.
