We are sorry to say we won't be holding anymore Empower Birth Classes this year. Look out for our offerings 2024! Hopefully next year be more "usual".

We used to think that 30 seconds of delayed cord clamping was enough until ACOG started recommending 60 seconds…

Now we have studies that show that delaying for 5 minutes can change brain development 🤯

So, how much time is the right time to delay cord clamping?

The truth is, we don’t actually know. But, what we do know is that every mama, every cord, and every baby are different.

Some cords, if left intact, will pulsate for up to 40 minutes after birth.

So, what’s the rush? Let the cord pulsate until it’s finished. Until it blanches white, turns cold, and becomes limp.

Let your baby get all of their oxygen, blood volume, iron reserves and stem cells.

Let the time be decided by the anatomy of the cord and nothing else ❤️

"And the cord was around his neck..."

"It's a good thing I was in hospital/had a caesarean because THE CORD WAS AROUND HIS NECK"

Have you ever heard stories like that?

Let me put my dark glasses on, and steeple my fingers and ask...

What if I told you....

That the cord being around your baby's neck was EXPECTED?

Think of all the boogying around in there they do. Wouldn't it be a bit weird if it wasn't looped around them?

What if I told you...

It's pretty common. It happens in around 1/3 of births, and it's not usually a cause for concern.

What if I told you...

It's not strangling your baby. He's not breathing with his lungs yet, remember. And it's coated in Whartons jelly to protect it even if it's knotted.

What if i told you it's a GOOD thing!

Around the neck is infinitely better than around the head! It would get very squashed there as he moved down and out.

Please see the commments for a l i n k to more information about this :D
