Why Placenta Pills?
Every living animal instinctually eats their placenta after giving birth. For thousands of years, Traditional Chinese Medicine has revered the placenta as a powerful and invaluable part of the postpartum healing process. After giving birth many new mothers experience a drop in hormones, blood loss and fatigue; all of which are thought of as key factors in the development of the “baby blues” and postpartum depression . Full of Qi, life energy, the placenta aids in postpartum wellness by replenishing your system with natural iron & protein and helps reintroduce these essential hormones back into your system.
Symptoms:
- Mood Instability
- Weepiness
- Sadness
- Lack of concentration
- Feelings of dependency
Today, approximately 80% of women experience some level of postpartum depression/mood disorder. Using the placenta for its medicinal properties during the postpartum period is a natural & healthier way you can help avoid these symptoms and the costly treatments that usually accompany them, such as medications and counseling.
Benefits of Placenta Capsules
- balance your hormones
- enhance milk supply
- increase your energy.
- Quicker recovery from birth
- Brings body back into balance
- Prevents postpartum depression
- Less postpartum bleeding
- Helps to heal tears or cuts
- Assist the uterus to return to size
- Increase postpartum iron levels
Women who take placenta capsules enjoy a faster, more pleasant postpartum recovery and report fewer emotional issues. Women, and their families, notice a noticeable improvement in overall feelings of happiness and well-being when taking placenta capsules. My clients often refer to their placenta capsules as “happy pills!”
The Placenta's Healing Chemicals
The placenta is full of healing chemicals and feel good hormones, so it makes sense as nature intended to safely welcome them back into your system during your postpartum period. The known ingredients that give the placenta its healing properties are:
- Gonadotrophin - the precursor to estrogen, progesterone and testosterone
- Prolactin - promotes lactation
- Oxytocin - for pain and bonding; produced during breastfeeding to facilitate bonding of mother and
infant. In pharmaceutical form this is a very addictive drug because it promotes a feeling of
connectedness with others and is often referred to as the “love” hormone
- Interferon - stimulates the immune system to protect against infection
- Thyroid Stimulating Hormone - boosts energy and helps recover from stressful events
- Cortisone - combats stress and unlocks stores of energy
- Prostaglandins - anti-inflammatory
- Hemoglobin - replenishes iron deficiency and anemia
- Gammaglobulin - immune booster that helps protect against postpartum infections
- Urokinase Inhibiting Factor & Factor XIII - stops bleeding and enhances wound healing
As a Placenta Encapsulating Specialist:
The placenta is encapsulated within 48 hours after the birth. While you bond with your new baby, I am basically “on call” for you and will come to your home/hospital right away and encapsulate your placenta within the 48 hour time period.
The work space and tools are sanitized before the placenta is touched. The placenta is treated as sacred, and is honored for all the work it has done to nourish your baby, while preparing it to continue its work nourishing you.
My placenta encapsulation service includes up to 200 placenta capsules that will help nourish you during your first few postpartum weeks. Each placenta is unique in both its shape and size, so I cannot accurately predict how many capsules you will receive from your placenta.
Payment is due upon delivery of your placenta capsules. My fee of $200 covers all of my materials, gasoline, along with my time and services. I work very hard to keep my fee reasonable and my service accessible to everyone.
If you are interested in having your placenta encapsulated or would like to know more please contact me at info@allaboutbirthing.com.
Many Blessings!
