So you can imagine my surprise when a few weeks ago as my husband and I were discussing he said "your aunty asked me for the twins placenta".
I almost passed out. " Did you give her?" I know my aunty very well and her ways are not too straight. I trembled as I waited for him to continue, "But I told you where I buried them na" he said. Boy was I relieved.
My husband said he asked her what she needed the placentas for and she said it's for her daughter that was yet to give birth.
Another incident was when a family friend of ours went to a jazz man to help her retrieve her money from a man that scammed her. The jazz man requested for a new born baby's placenta. He said when he was done preparing the jazz the scammer would be having nightmares of the baby chasing him. Then he won't be able to function properly until he returns her money.
She said after thinking about it, she decided not to go along with it because she felt that somehow the innocent baby would be affected. When she told the jazz man that she wasn't interested he asked if getting the placenta was the problem that he had nurses that supplies him.
What did you do with your child's placenta? I hear about people eat theirs or mix it with body cream.
My mom said all our own were discarded by d hospital.
ReplyDeleteWe buried my kids own.
DeleteMy doc in Canada says a nurse in the hospital in Canada were i will be having my twins can dehydrate and cut it in pieces so i take it as pills after birth. I hv researched about it and found that its healthy.
Delete..does it make d body immune to diseases? Or na blood builder? No matter how healthy it is, I no go chop am.
Deleteevil people and their evil intentions have made things difficult. placenta is used by plastic surgeon to help in treating burns. serious burns
DeleteMy baby my placenta
DeleteNo fucking human will handle it
Not even my mother in-law
I almost pass out reading this, thank God your hubby didn't give her the placenta o.
ReplyDeleteWe should be careful with all these. Most doctors and nurses are evil and ocultic
How can you say "most"? That is saying almost all doctors and nurses are occultic. Abeg say some are occultic.
DeleteWhether they practice occultism or not, parents should be the ones to discard (burn or bury) placenta (very important).
DeleteWonders shall never end. I think most cultures have their way of disposing or preserving it.
ReplyDeleteCouples should discuss how religious and cultural belief will be handled in their marriage.
Didn't Kim K turned hers to pills?
Yes you can turn it into supplements and take dem but the downside is that you truly don't know if it's truly your babies or dey switched it,you just have to believe it's yours
Deleteeat placental? mix with cream?it meant to be buried in an unknown place by the father na
ReplyDeleteHaving a baby soon. Been thinking of what to do with the baby’s placenta. Wish I could just burn it. Any advice? Burying is okay?
ReplyDeleteBurying is ok. That of my kids were buried.
Deletelook for a place where you are sure no one will dig it upon your absence and bury. if you have a place to burn it around you, then that will be better.
DeleteSee if u can dry and turn it to powder or pill and eat it. Its woderful to your recovery and general well being as a mom.
DeleteJust dig a very deep hole and bury it.
DeleteThank you all.
DeleteI flushed it down the toilet.
ReplyDeleteI didn't bury my son's own. I just kept it in jewellery box, its very dried now. Don't even know what to do with it.
ReplyDeleteThat should be the umbilical cord. Placenta in a jewellery box?
DeleteMy people pls and pls don't give your placenta to any of your family members you don't trust. Some o you are going through spiritual attack,stagnation,sickness now because of the person that bury your placenta.Talking from experience

Sometimes you don't sound alright. They can say somebody's mother died and you will ramble about abortion in that post. The way you even talk about abortion doesn't even discourage but rather sounds like noise. People won't take you seriously when you are rambling on it.

ReplyDeleteThe hospital were I had my kids help me to discard them, I don't even know how it looks like. God dey.
ReplyDeleteHow do you dispose a miscarried baby of 5months?
ReplyDeleteYou can bury by yourself or ask your hospital to help you dispose of the baby.
DeleteDon't BURN but bury them.
ReplyDeleteI developed goose bump reading where someone eat placenta, are u a dog? Though am hearing this for the first time. In my place of origin, the only way of disposing placenta is to burry it, no burning and no eating. In fact it is mostly done by the father of the child and it must be buried where no one will see it, again it must not bend on the ground upon burying it else I learnt that the baby will develop 4:30 eyes upon growing up.
ReplyDeleteBut in Kano some do burry it while some sell it (those that are extremely poor). that was how I came to the conclusion that may be those once doin almajiri up and down that grow up to have meaningless life may fall into the categories of those that their placenta ws been sold out by their parent.
Wow,i f I eventually give birth,I will prefer to eat the placenta as supplements, its the safest so far,good innovation I must commend.
ReplyDeleteMy husband buried my first one i flushed off second one in the suckaway, just hearing that some dried and eat theirs
ReplyDeleteThis placenta disposable ish is not popular in Southeast. Hospitals where the babies were born dispose the placenta themselves.
ReplyDelete*disposal
ReplyDeleteEh I remember how my father in law kept on insisting about giving him the placenta..in my mind I was like come all the way from lagos to calabar to come and get it.smh..this is the same man who didn't call me all through my pregnancy journey to check on me..when I gave birth ,I just tied it inside a nylon and threw it away, nobody would ever know what I kept inside..Evil ppl everywhere
