Thanks for sharing that! I have been looking up just how it's done but was always confused but you showed pics and cleared everything up for me! Question though, how's your milk supply? I heard placenta helped a lot with that but not too sure how true it is. I wasn't able to BF my son because I couldn't produce milk at all so this time I wanted to try everything to get a supply going. Even if it didn't help I'd still take the pills but was wondering.

milk supply is great! I actually have such a good supply that I DONATE milk to a lady who had her breasts removed due to cancer.

Very cool.  How did you find the woman you donate milk to? I wouldn't mind donating some of my freezer stash that needs to be used, but I don't have the minimum of 100 ounces that milk banks require.

Awesome! I really want to find a doula who will do this for me after the birth. I just dont think i'll be able to handle the direct cooking aroma. I tried to cook venison once and i was gagging the whole time.
Question, are the placenta strips basically burnt after the baking stage? they look really dark in the food processor. or was that just the lighting?

That is good to hear! Thank you!
And such a wonderful thing to do, donate milk. I would of loved to been able to find someone that donated milk when I had my son but it's not common here and seems hard to find.
