Delayed Cord Clamping - Are their vampires in the birth room?

from Awakening Birth · host Douglas

Up to 1/3 of the baby’s blood is still present in the cord immediately after birth, a vital fluid that has been converted into a commodity and commercial product. Are their vampires in the hospital? In this podcast, hosts and midwives Deborah Flowers and Ibu Robin Lim discuss the new standard of care, in which clamping or cutting the cord is delayed from 30 minutes to as long as three days, a traditional practice known as "Lotus Birth."
