If you are moving across the country, this will be more expensive than moving across town. Part of that expense is in the gas and wear on the moving van. But this is also due in part to the labor and coordination involved in one crew packing your things in one state and another unpacking in another state.
Lotus birth is a beautiful and logical extension of natural childbirth, and invites us to reclaim the so-called third stage of birth, and to honour the placenta, our babyâs first source of nourishment, Buckley wrote.
Just over five years ago, I gave birth to my first child and opted not to cut the cordâand, subsequently, the attached placentaâand allow it to fall away naturally. Cord non-severance is otherwise referred to as a lotus birth, a process that felt so instinctual to me that nine months ago I also chose to birth my second baby in the same way. Baby number two was delivered in the birth pool in the presence of her dad and big brother, now five years old.
