Recently I received a call from a newly pregnant mom. I believe she is expecting her fifth baby. She has a history of postpartum anxiety that starts around the time her baby turns three months and lasts a couple months. This time around she is considering placenta encapsulation to try to ward off that experience.
She asked me what I knew about women's experiences with placenta encapsulation in her specific situation. Since we mostly talk and hear about women taking placenta capsules for the early postpartum period, I wanted to ask my clients what their experience had been and if anyone could relate to this woman's story. Below I've copied and pasted all the responses I received. Once again my amazing clients come through in a big way! You'll see that not everyone who responded specifically could relate to this mom's situation but everyone was very eager to share their personal experience.
