Placentophagy and waterbirth

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
If you plan on consuming or drying your placenta for consumption after the birth is it safe to birth it in the water or do you need to get out first. I'm concerned about any bacteria etc in the water.

TIA

I birthed my placenta in the water and later encapsulated it. We just washed it off.

The bacteria in the water is highly diluted and also its your own bacteria.
