The placenta is amazing!!
It provides nourishment to, and eliminates waste from the baby. The baby takes oxygen from its mama with the help of the placenta. The placenta secretes hormones that regulate and maintain pregnancy, as well as blocking many harmful substances that may reach the baby. The placenta has amazing capabilities during the postpartum period too. It contains your own natural hormones and is made perfectly for you. If reintroduced into your system, the placenta can heal, sustain, and strengthen.
Your baby’s placenta is believed to:
- balance energy depleted by labor & birth
- replenish iron, minerals & vitamins
- balance hormones
- lessen postnatal bleeding
- increase milk production
- help you have a happier postpartum period
- complement your body’s effort in returning the uterus to its pre-pregnancy state
- be helpful during menopause
