Have Your Baby!
Text me when you have your little one joins us earth side! I will then coordinate with you or your partner/doula for pick up. I offer pick up times between 7am - 7pm. You will need to bring a cooler with you to your place of birth and keep it on ice until I arrive to pick it up! Sometimes you will be allowed to put it in their fridge/freezer, but this isn’t always the case.
I offer a discount if drop off/pick up is handled by you :)

Making the Magic ・゚:*:・゚*:・゚
I offer placenta encapsulation using either the Traditional Chinese Method (TCM), or the Raw Method. TCM involves cleaning and gently steaming the placenta with lemon + garlic (and herbs if desired), then dehydrating it for about 8-12 hours, grinding it into a powder, and distributing it into capsules. The Raw Method is very similar, just minus the steam.
In addition to the encapsulation of the placenta, I also include a placenta print and a cord keepsake in all of my packages.

Would recommend to anyone! Even got beautiful photos of my placenta once it was cleaned before it got encapsulated. Very grateful!”

What is the evidence?
The majority of the evidence we have on placenta consumption is anecdotal. However, from this anecdotal evidence, there is quite a bit of positive feedback! There have been reports of a more balanced mood, increased energy levels, better sleep, restoration of iron levels, and increased milk supply. There has been some scientific evidence that suggests that following the preparation process, hormones remain present in the placenta. Researchers have found that progesterone and estradiol remain at high enough levels to cause physiological effects if consumed.
No large randomized study exists that suggests that there are any serious risks associated with placenta consumption. A very small number of people did report a feeling of jitteriness and an increase in anxiety - similar to being overly caffeinated. Some suggest that if you have caffeine sensitivity, encapsulation may not be right for you. There have also been a small number of people that have reported a decrease in supply after ingesting the capsules, but, without a large randomized study, it is difficult to say whether or not this was actually caused by the consumption of the placenta or just the natural variation in breastfeeding experiences. The CDC currently warns against placenta encapsulation, but again, there is very little evidence to support this recommendation without a large randomized study.
