ya you read it right, its a blog about my Placenta....brace yourself and those with a weak tummy are warned!
after Olivia was born we had the doctor save my placenta, which was a little gross but, eh. did you know that alot of cultures actually feast on the placenta after birth and most animals actually eat there own placentas after their babies are born. the placenta actually has alot of benefits for, men, children, women during and after pregnancy. but before you go put one in the crock pot....(that was for visual purposes only, please don't try it) there is now easier ways to get all the benefits of the placenta without having to actually cook and eat it *cringe*.
before i let you in on what i did with my placenta i tell you what all benefits are!
*Postpartum Benefits*
-decreases likelihood of postpartum depression/mood disorders
-stimulates production of breast milk
-enhances production of blood and treats anemia
-balances hormones
-speeds recovery after birth
-eliminates fatigue
-stimulates the regeneration of cells and tissue
-speeds up the healing of wounds
-speeds of recovery after surgery
-reduces insomnia and sleep disorders
*Other Benefits And Uses*

-improves skin condition
-eliminates problems associated with menopause
-treats infertility and sterility (both in male and female)

-treats influenza and the common cold even during pregnancy
-helps sick children improve their ability to fight disease
well in other words its like gold!!!!
well anyways i saved mine and rick and Anna were nice enough to store it in there freezer *cringe*! they then took it to "The Placenta Lady" yes this is what she calls herself, where she then freeze dried it and blended it into a powder and put it in capsules for me to take. its just like taking a vitamin and you cant taste it....well sometimes with the occasional burp here and there but it really just taste like one of those gross multivitamins or iron pills so its really tolerable.
now that some of you might be running for the toilet i have to say I'm so glad i did this. i get really bad postpartum as is and i was afraid how much worse it could have been in this type of situation where i had given a baby up. I'm very anemic which cause me to be fatigued and have no energy. i have a hormonal imbalances as it so my mood swings can get unbearable after birth, not to mention that the other benefits are all a big fat plus as well =)
