Anybody else thinking about eating their placenta? I'd like to, because the health and recovery…

I've been reading about it. I would do it definitely if it wasn't so expensive to do the encapsulation. so I still am not sure.

@michellevaldez4750, You can just take it home whole and fresh in a sealed bag and add it to smoothies, I've heard of women who did this and it worked well :)

I'm not sure if I could do that. I've seen my placenta, it looks so gross I don't think I'd be able to stomach it.

I wish I could! and I know 100% my husband and kids would be way too grossed out lol

@michellevaldez4750 Well, I do think mindset plays a big part. I've trained myself to not find blood and placenta gross, but see it for the beautiful blessing that grows healthy babies, and I definitely want to go through that little bit of trouble to consume the benefits of it ☺

I could probably get over it if I conditioned myself, the husband and kids though I already know it wouldn't happen, I could possibly get him to pay to have it encapsulated though if I tell him the alternative ;) @miicat

@michellevaldez4750 Haha, that's sneaky! Try it 😂

I think I will 😜

I did! my mother is a doula and she dehydrated mine and put them in capsules so I could take them every day for 2 months

@martinajjones That's really cool! I don't think I'll do it in capsules, I actually would like to blend some fresh chunks into smoothies throughout the weeks and keep about half of it, which we want to plant with a tree that will grow as our child grows ☺
