Toews would dive for it and gobble it up. Or put it in the Stanley Cup for later.

Lotus birth is fine by me if you carry the placenta around in the Stanley Cup.

Animals also eat the placenta because leaving a big plop of raw meat lying around is a great way to attract predators when you have vulnerable newborns. Unless there's a pack of dingoes in your maternity ward, this does not really apply to humans.

The lotus birth thing seems so complicated and high maintenance.

making sure it doesn't stink is pretty much your main priority for the next, what, twelve days?

Something you can do with the placenta is take the placental and umbilical cord blood and tissue from a newborn baby and place it in cryo storage so if the baby gets a blood or immune disease sometime in the future they can use the stem cells to beat it. Another thing you can do with the placenta is eat it. Potato, Pahtaho.

You can also eat raw placenta, usually in smoothie form

you're not supposed to eat raw placenta if meconium (poop!) was in the amniotic fluid
― dayo, Friday, 6 April 2012 21:47 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, only eat it if it's completely filtered any extant poop.
