More Information
The time immediately following your baby's birth, is a crucial period for bonding. You will want to see and cuddle your new little one as much as possible.
Most routine newborn procedures can be done without taking your baby away, so don't allow him/her to be separated from you unless it is medically necessary.
Procedures such as weighing and eye drops can be delayed allowing you and your partner to relax and bond with the newest little addition to your family!
Expect to feel:
- Contractions that are very manageable
- Joy, relief, and a mixture of emotions
What Your Partner Can Do:
- Hold the baby and you
- Remind you of relaxation and breathing techniques.
Some women save the placenta - perhaps ask your practitioner to give you a quick tour of this amazing organ that nourished your baby for so long. In a homebirth it may be your responsibility to dispose of the placenta, so be sure to ask! For some families planting the placenta is a ritual.
- Dig a deep hole, at least 16 inches deep
- Bury the placenta
Wait at least a year before planting a tree or anything over it (the soil will be too rich and kill the plant). Planting a tree over the placenta on baby's first birthday for example, is a wonderful and special ritual!
AfterBirth Drops are manufactured according to the highest standards, individual ingredients are well-researched, and natural. |
