Just wondering if anyone had heard or done delayed cord clapping with any of their babies when born? A friend of mine asked me if its something I'll get done and sent me the attached pic. I'd never heard of it before..

I don’t understand why it’s not standard everywhere because I’ve seen no negatives about it and only positives
I feel like we are way behind then in the UK as most people I’ve spoken to haven’t heard of it and like it’s the ‘thing’ to ask for if you know about it that is!Yes I think it will become standard practice everywhere before long. When I had my oldest 8 years ago it was a "thing" to ask for, now it's just a given that they wait until the cord stops pulsing.
I know it completely baffles me. I’ve mentioned it to a few people and my hubby said he doesn’t understand why it’s not standard if it’s beneficial and I said I agree!Oh Kitana how scary!! yes of course there will always be cases where it's not possible. So glad your little lady is ok!
SJF yes i wonder what the story is there - all the newest/latest research should be common knowledge everywhere!
