RE: Why Every Woman Deserves to Give Birth At Home
Wow!! So this is the way Anjel came to this world? Since I got to know babies can be born this way I always felt it's the right way..altho I don't know anything about giving birth..but it feels somehow right...
What freaked u guys out about cutting the cord? I have sooo little knowledge about this that I somehow imagine blood pouring out of the cord in all directions..did u save placenta blood btw? I remember it's suuuuper super useful in the future. Great man and friend on ur side :) happy for u guys!

It was pretty crazy cutting the cord 😮 It was really thick and meaty and it just feels wrong holding a sharp thing to a baby... The midwife asked me if I wanted to cut it and I was like 😅 “oh yeah” lol... But yeah it was all natural and she’s eating her placenta in capsule form to get all the nutrients and hormones out of there while her pituitary gland gets started up again. Thanks so much @matkodurko!

Haha man I dunno anything about this :D I just read once it's healthy..that being sad..who's eating it? :D Mum or Anjel?:D Ignorant question but I really don't know haha :D
The placenta is dried up and then put into capsules so the mother can eat them :D don’t worry, I thought it was very strange at first also. It’s dried out, so it’s not necessarily the blood she’s eating, it’s the tissue I think.
So basically during the pregnancy, the brain stops producing hormones in the mother, and instead, the placenta makes the hormones during the pregnancy. So once the baby and placenta come out, the mothers hormone levels start to crash lower and lower, and the placenta pills are there to help keep the hormone levels balanced so it’s not a huge shock to the system.

Ohhhh ok. Wow, crazy stuff! Glad u guys are doing it this way :) It sounds right....I'm off to the bed now, see u around :)
Yes, babies have been born at home for centuries, they started promoting hospital births in the 1900’s. There are many extra complications that you face during a hospital birth. Let alone the germ exposure alone!!
It was just scary being so close to his skin lol, but the dr assisted Alex and he did great. No blood from the cord :)
We saved the actual placenta and she dehydrated it and capsuled it for us. Was amazing!! Highly recommend. Thanks for the good vibes.
