Lotus Birth?????

Has anyone heard of this rather...*cough*....unique way of giving birth? I first heard of this yesterday when a friend of mine enlightened me that another friend of ours is going to do this!!. Does anyone know anybody who has successfully done this and what was the outcome??

Lotus birth
Lotus birth is the practice of leaving the umbilical cord uncut, so that the baby remains attached to his/her placenta until the cord naturally separates at the umbilicus- exactly as a cut cord does- at 3 to 10 days after birth. This prolonged contact can be seen as a time of transition, allowing the baby to slowly and gently let go of his/her attachment to the mother's body.
Is it just me or would this be a great big pain in the arse???

    When I was a child I would clamp on to my mothers leg every morning while she was trying to get ready for work..If she had only done this.

    :lol: Maybe you would have benefited from a Lotus birth??? Then you could have just layed back and Mum could have dragged you around with her!
