The current trend of utilizing your baby's placenta.
I understand that the placenta is a miraculous organ that nourishes and sustains your little angel all throughout your pregnancy. That doesn't change the fact that placenta is absolutely disgusting. It's a bloody mass of meat and vessels that was once one of your internal organs.
One of the few things I remember from the drugged haze of my son's birth is being horrified by the placenta. There is no scary movie monster or alien more disgusting than placenta. And this is coming from a woman who made a cartoon monster out of her dermoid tumor.
So, needless to say, I'm really creeped out by all the ways childbearing women are saving and putting their placentas to use.
