@jessie433, you're welcome 😊

@daij, oh ok thanks

@jessie433, just say it when you see your doctor or your next OB visit

@daij, how do I tell them ?

@jessie433, just tell your doctor when you see him or her they don't have any problem with delaying it 😊 glad you're making a good choice for your little one ❤️

By delaying it, it increases the baby's blood volume @haileyjane03

I had never heard about this how should I tell my doctor?? I want to do it

@haileyjane03, the placenta is still pumping blood to baby

What is the difference in delaying and not delaying

@emkasting, 😊😊😊❤️

It's in my birth plan

I'm gonna request to delay the cord clamping

@jennerfay, that's what I was told, oh so he just kept it laying by baby and waited

No, mine didn't pump for that long afterwards. He just waited until it stopped and the. Had Rob cut it.

@mamacodi_09n16, very good things. @jennerfay did they wrap it until it stopped? She's my first so I don't know lol

We did it and my dr didn't have a problem at all.

I wanted to do that too! heard good things about it♡

@kaileenicole16, good decision, it takes about half an hour for it to stop pumping tho. 😊

yeah I see I might do that too.

@kaileenicole16, more blood... The placenta is what helped baby live in the womb... You don't want to cut that right off when it's still pumping doing its job. That's how I look at it.

how does that benefit the baby?

@kaileenicole16, yes in my opinion, when baby is born the placenta is still pumping blood. You have a choice if you want it cut or not.

is it better?
