@crazytoast, same with my hospital. My Dr. reassured me that they always do delayed cord cutting. I'm also doing placenta encapsulation. @hayhayes1 are you going to do that?
The hospital I delivered at does mandatory delayed cord clamping so that the baby gets all the blood. I mentioned it and was reassured that it's a standard practice for all births unless there was a medical emergency for the baby.
and the fact the blood in the cord could be a cure for cancer and you have to go through so much and pay so much to keep it!?! @ginabee93 @mama_mara I just cant. lol I'm on one tonight.
@rachayrn, if you do research it's really good for the baby. I will be mentioning it to my obgyn when I have my appointment. I think it's crazy no doctors talk about it or tell you. it's good because all the blood and everything from the placenta gets to the baby. better than them cutting it right when the baby comes out. you know they end up taking your placenta for testing and such.

Oh I know. They asked me if I wanted mine, and I just offered to donate it. People could use what blood had been left.

It's a nice in theory, but I wouldn't want to pack the placenta around for a week. the cord was a rotting smell on its own.

They should always take into account what the mother wants!

@ginabee93, I just think it's Hella sketchy. If they don't let me do it I will raise hell. or I will just have my baby at home.

I told my doctor to leave the umbilical cord attached till it turned white, so I knew my baby received more blood from the placenta..
