I wince thinking about how many get thrown away.

Your placenta contains more than you might think: Prolactin, Prostaglandins, Urokinase Inhibiting Factors, Cytokines and Cortisone and that’s just part 1! So perfectly made and so powerful.

You don’t have to do anything with it but you do deserve to know how badass it is ♥️

Studies of steamed placenta capsules showed that they provide approximately 24% RDA of iron which sounds low but nutritionists theorise that the iron from placenta capsules is likely to be more bioavailable to your body and so you may be able to absorb more of it than other forms.

Keeping iron levels up during pregnancy is important as is fuelling yourself well postnatally. Low iron can contribute to fatigue, depression and reduced mental and physical condition. Other sources include organ meat, red meat, seafood, egg yolks, legumes, leafy greens, seeds & nuts and fortified foods.

I’ll link one of the studies below in the comments- message me if you’d like me to send a clickable version!

What is GBS?

Group B Strep is a common bacterium which is carried in the va**na and re**um of 2–4 in 10 women (20–40%) in the UK. GBS is not a sexually transmitted disease and most women carrying GBS will have no symptoms.

Simple carrying the bacteria does not prevent you from encapsulating your placenta however if your baby has an active GBS infection at birth or shortly after, it is not recommended.

Indeed, any infection at birth (of the mother or baby) should be cause for a pause until there is further information.

You’ve just grown, birthed, and are now sustaining a whole human. Remember that.

In my opinion, now is not the time to feel like you need to look like you’ve got everything together.

Let others do the cleaning and the cooking and the running around where possible. The most important tasks on your to do list are healing, bonding, responding. That is far more ‘productive’ than anything else ♥️

Motherhood is a quiet contradiction. It broke me out of binary thinking, the idea that something has to be either this or that.

The awe and the mundane.
The love and the grief.
Giving birth felt like a kind of unravelling and then a rebuilding.

Two things can be true at the same time and learning to hold them both was a revelation.

Tell me honestly…
If you told your mum you were encapsulating your placenta, would she:

A) Say “Oh my Christ”
B) Pretend she didn’t hear you
C) Ask if she can have some too
D) Google it immediately

🛖 Support isn’t a luxury in the perinatal period, it’s essential. Here are a selection of local support groups happening in March. They are almost all free to attend.

🍈 🍼 For feeding support, see , &

♥️ Parents: if you end up trying one of these groups let me know & birth workers: if you have a support group or event you’d like featured in April, tell me all about it 😊

Save this post so that you can refer back to it throughout March 💾

Placenta Mamas

Hi there mama/birthing person! My name is Kimberley Knight and I live in Fareham, Hampshire with my partner and daughter. I set up Placenta Mamas with a vision of providing a high quality, safe, affordable, easy to use placenta remedies service so that any new mama or birthing person wishing to benefit from the nutrients and hormones in their marvellous placenta can, in order to have a positive impact on that precious, 'fourth trimester'.

I cover Hampshire and neighbouring counties and aim to deliver your remedies back to you within 24-48 hours so that you can start to feel the benefits as quickly as possible!

Fully trained with IPEN (The Independent Placenta Encapsulation Network), certified in Infection Control and Food Safety, approved and inspected by Fareham Borough Council Environmental Health with a level 5 Food Hygiene Rating, you can be sure that your placenta is in safe hands. ** Please note that I am currently on maternity leave and will not be taking bookings during April, May, June or July 2020. I will be taking a very limited number of bookings during the months of August, September, October, November and December, limited to those booked into QA, Princess Anne, RHCH (Wi******er) St Richards or home birthing within 30 minutes from PO16.**
