I remember getting Kathryn's sms asking if it was too late to book in her encapsulation as she had passed 40 weeks and was still waiting for bubs to arrive. I was on my way to see a postnatal client on the other side of Adelaide, so I gave Kathryn a call to let her know it was fine and that I would email through details later that day. Much to my suprise I got another sms saying she had gone into labour before I'd even had a chance to get the information sent and that she was heading into hospital. A sweet baby boy and placenta arrived just 85 minutes later! How exciting! Baby must have known Mum was waiting to organise one last thing. I picked up Kathryn's placenta from her doula's house the next day (what a great doula hey) and began the encapsulation process. When everything was ready, I delivered the capsules and cord keepsake back to Kathryn at home. "I was extremely happy with the services and support I received. I hope the majority of the western world will catch on and experience the benefits of doula support and encapsulating their own placentas for consumption. I will have to wait until my milk settles down before taking the capsules again as they up the supply a lot :) I'm very much looking forward to starting on the capsules again. I miss that good feeling they give!" I was lucky enough to go back and see Kathryn three weeks later to give her some postnatal support and had a cuddle with her little man. Congratulations on your lovely addition to your family and thank you for letting me be part of your babymoon Kathryn xx Did you feel like your baby was waiting for something before you went into labour or is there something you've left to the last minute?
