It’s never too late to start planning for postpart It’s never too late to start planning for postpartum. 
When I say postpartum; I mean for you. Not the baby stuff. 
Put together things that make you feel special. Delegate tasks for people. If you don’t have support consider a postpartum doula. If it’s not in the budget, look for someone that needs experience and trade for a review. Create a space that’s for you to go to and just be, even if it’s 5 minutes. Squirrel food away. Book your placenta encapsulation.  Put together a list of resources in the event you need them. 

I would like to thank my youngest for always taking random videos and photos on my phone for me to use on socials. 😂

Placentophagy was not associated with any adverse Placentophagy was not associated with any adverse neonatal outcomes according to research done by Oregon State University and UNLV.

Placenta encapsulation when done properly is safe.  If your care provider tells you otherwise please share with them this study. I have no doubt that if your provider tells you this it is because they are concerned. However, the truth is most providers have not researched encapsulation themselves and are not kept up to date on the latest research.

Iron is an important element in postpartum. Low i Iron is an important element in postpartum.  Low iron levels have been associated with poor concentration and mood in postpartum.  Research also suggests that balanced iron levels reduce unexplained fatigue during the postpartum period. 

In a study conducted by UNLV, it was found that one serving of encapsulated placenta contained about 24% RDA of iron.  One may think, well that is not a lot, but take a moment to consider the probable bioavailability of iron that was sourced from YOUR body.  There are no studies on this but I think it’s a pretty good hypothesis that iron that was created by you would absorb and be used by you much better than plan or animal iron.  Just a thought.
