 |
| At arrival/check-in remind the care team that you intend to keep your placenta. It is helpful if you let me know it’s baby time, but not required.

| Step #7: Preparation |
 |
| All work spaces and supplies are sanitized. The placenta is examined for abnormalities, signs of infection, deterioration, or contamination. This is done by a 6 part examination, and a temperature check to ensure placenta was stored at a safe temperature between birth and processing. |

| Each placenta product chosen is prepared with care following the high-standard protocols as taught in my formal placenta encapsulation training. If you opted for pictures, I’ll send photos of your placenta/process every step of the way. Read more about the encapsulation process here or see step-by-step photos on our gallery page. |
