They said it went against their policy. I had my boys in Ohio and I wasn't about to deal with the court in Ohio and WV

I'm doing capsules with mine! Make sure you chk with the hospital too. Its big around here tho. I could never fry it or make a smoothie, but I shall make into pill form!

exactly what I was thinking @bentleysmomma I never even thought of the possibility that someone would tell me I couldn't do what I wanted with it

@usmcwife, yeah I'd make sure you can so you're not disappointed! This girl literally went to court and fought for her own placenta. Which is ridiculous, I feel like if it's something inside you that you grew, you should be able to keep it

@bentleysmomma, huh I guess I should look into that cause I wanted mine encapsulated.

Exactly what is the benefits of taking and drinking/eating your placenta?

@usmcwife, there was an article on Facebook of having to have a court order before taking your placenta home because of health hazards or something like that, but not all hospitals are a pain about it

I see this is more and more common these days. I don't understand it exactly....

Why wouldn't they let you take it? @lilanne1927

My hospital wouldn't let me take mine home with either child. I wanted to put it in capsules

Ugg that's so gross to me. Lol. Did the nurses give you a hard time when you asked for it? I've heard a lot of women wanted to take theirs home but they couldn't for whatever reason.
