About this episode
When it comes to making decisions surrounding your birth, you need to think about the immediate after birth, too! Often, we think that's just for newborn care procedures, but today, I want to talk in depth about cord blood banking, placenta donation, and placenta encapsulation. As always, the purpose of this podcast episode is to inform you so that you can make the right decisions for your birth and family. I encourage you to take this information, do your own research, and discuss this decision with your OBGYN or midwife before giving birth. Want to feel in control before birth?
