Re: Eating The Placenta?
I heard about this... DH and I were joking with my OBGYN - DH said with a straight face to her that we wanted to bury the placenta... she looked at us in shock and we started laughing...
she said, "dont even joke - I had a couple that wanted to eat the placenta!!!"
So it happens more than we think!!!

Re: Eating The Placenta?
Pretty nasty indeed. However, I saw somewhere where a couple made shish-ka-bobs out of it....***VOMIT***. While I have heard there are a lot of nutrients...it's still pretty gross!

I had to shut it off when I saw that.
My old boss took was being certified in prenatal yoga and they had a whole day about what you are supposed to do with the placenta

Re: Eating The Placenta?
for whatever reason after I delivered DS about an hour late my parents and inlaws were allowed in the delivery room where I was recovering and they still had the placenta sitting in the giant petri dish right out in the open. My brother almost fainted when he walked in the room. And of course my DH kept joking with him "hey, want a steak" because that is kind of what it looked like. Gross

Re: Eating The Placenta?
I'm sorry eating it is just plain gross! My best friend took her first child's home with her and buried it. It was her DH's idea. Her mother and I still crack up about it.
