When M was born I asked to keep my placenta. The hospital didn't like that and said if I wanted to keep it, it had to be removed from the hospital immediately. I guess that was supposed to be a deterrent, but I sent J home bucket in hand while the rest of my organs stayed put. It lived in our freezer for a year.
We buried it under a new tree on M's first birthday, and the tree bloomed for the first time this week. Delicious white blooms that smell remarkably like a newborn. I don't know if it has anything to do with the placenta, but I'd like to think that it does.
It's time for our fourth Just Post Roundtable. If you have a post of yours or one you've appreciated that was written by someone else, please send them my way (to girlplustwo (at) yahoo(dot) com) by April 7th and I'll send you the button. Go on. It's good for the soul.
We'll link all posts and anyone who refers one (or more) in our Just Post Roundtable on the 10th. If this is new to you, please feel free to check it out here. All Just Posts will also be featured in The Whole Mom webzine every month.
