Placentophagy? Yes, she's definately nuts
 [The Clarion-Ledger] Almost immediately after she found out she was pregnant, Brandon resident Jordan Thiering began preparing for her baby. She bought outfits and stocked up on cloth diapers.She and husband Doug assembled baby furniture and decorated the nursery with the name they had chosen for their son; they would call him Roman, middle name to be determined. They packed a bag, ready for that moment they had to rush off to the hospital. In a multitude of ways, Thiering was prepared for her baby's arrival. One thing she was not prepared for, however, was to go to court. At 33 weeks pregnant, Thiering had to get a court order giving her the rights to her placenta. "I grew my baby, I grew my placenta," Thiering said. "There should be no one that can tell me what I can or can’t do with it." Thiering said she was going over her birth plan with her OB-GYN in March when she mentioned she wanted to encapsulate her placenta. After a postpartum friend told Thiering she put her placenta in a smoothie, the mom-to-be began to look into the idea. Posted by: Besoeker 2016-06-02 |
