I did the same thing at my last (4th) birth! I put a piece of placenta between my cheek and gum - however, my piece was half smaller than this one in the video and it worked anyway. Also (for me) it didn’t feel like I had blood in my mouth... it actually (to my complete surprise) felt and tasted good. With the rest of the placenta... I did homeopathy, a protection amulet, capsules... oh, I also did a placenta print and I stretched the amniotic sac around a frame ;) #willmafied #placenta #postpartum #crazy #birthvideo #placentaencapsulation #childbirtheducation #love #childbirth #birth #midwifery #freebirth #Repost @midwifeangelina with @get_repost ・・・ No this is not for everyone, but some people may choose raw consumption.

And they eat it eagerly and in a hurry. For humans this is not a common behavior we see in today’s times for various reasons. But consumption of the placenta dates back centuries around the world and is often tradition in certain cultures. But not until the 1970’s did consumption of the placenta start to gain ground and become a growing practice among midwives and alternative-health advocates in the U.S. and Mexico. ✦ The placenta produces hormones needed to sustain a healthy pregnancy. These hormones are: 🔅progesterone 🔅estrogen 🔅cortisone 🔅interferon 🔆POEF 🔅oxytocin 🔅HPL ✦ Once the placenta is born, all these hormones and nutrients suddenly leave the body. And it can take several months for the mother to adjust. 👈🏻TO COUNTERACT THIS HORMONE IMBALANCE, MAMMALS IMMEDIATELY CONSUME THEIR PLACENTAS. ✦ Humans favorite way of consuming their placenta is by encapsulation. Slowly introducing the hormones again to the mother. ✦ Consumption of the placenta is believed to carry many health benefits: ⭐️placenta is rich in iron, high in protein and nutrients ⭐️fights fatigue ⭐️boosts milk supply ⭐️decreases postpartum hemorrhage ⭐️wards off postpartum depression... https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn27oALFyVk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ap0tp9jpme94
