Informed Birth with Kayla Crowley

10/20/2025

I had never seen the umbilical cord like this before, I thought it was just a little tube that fed the baby when it was inside the uterus and that was it, but nooooo, now I know it's 2 arteries and 1 vein... the vein carries oxygenated, nutrient-rich blood and the arteries carry deoxygenated blood, waste products (Carbon Dioxide) and nutrient-depleted blood through the placenta and into the bloodstream to get rid of it.

Each one plays an important role in keeping us alive before birth. Our nature is so complex, so minutely detailed that we need to exist. That's why it's important to cut the umbilical cord after three minutes so the placenta can return all the blood and complete its process.

❤️the lifeline you share with your babies is absolutely beautiful in its design

.
➰TRUE KNOT or NUCHAL KNOT - active babies in utero can create a knot in the umbilical cord, the baby’s life line.
➰The umbilical cord has two arteries and one vein which connects to the baby’s belly button to the fetal side of the placenta. The vein’s job is to transport blood, oxygen and nutrients to the baby. The arteries job is to transport waste material and carbon dioxide away from the to you which will be processed out through your kidneys.
➰The umbilical cord is covered by Wharton’s Jelly to protect it. The jelly keeps the cord from compressing on itself and stopping the blood flow to and from baby.
👶🏽Babies are born with knots in the cord or the cord wrapped around body parts all the time! They usually are not discovered until after baby is born.
💫This Godly phenomenon of and is ultimately created for survival of mom and baby.

I love this. The Dudla!

Has anyone heard of a Dudla?!

I heard of this term a while back, and we think it’s PERFECT!🤩

Dads are crucial to the success of homebirths, and we love seeing them step up and support mamas through this incredible time in their lives!

What are some helpful things your partner did for you during birth?
