This is a big debate in our house at the moment!!
I have no interest at all in eating the placenta but because I am having a home birth I don't like the idea of putting it out for the dustbin men!!
If I was in hospital it wouldn't even cross my mind as it would all just be disposed of with everything else, however, I don't like the idea of my placenta ending up on a land fill site!!
So, I am thinking maybe I will keep it and bury it in the garden under a rose bush or something and get a rose with a name that is connected to the baby in some way. I have read that they make very good food for plants and tree's.
Still think I am slightly barmy as I would never have dreamt of doing anything like this but I am quite liking the idea now!!
