Lotus birth

What is lotus birth?

  • Lotus birth also called umbilical non-severance is when the umbilical cord is left completely intact, still connecting an infant to the placenta, until the cord naturally separates from the belly bottom. This process takes up to 3 to 10 days.

Benefits:

Some of the reasons women have chosen lotus birth because they,
  • Prioritize the more natural and non-interventional approach.
  • Seek to acknowledge the importance or the spiritual meaning of the placenta.
  • Believe it calms the newborn because they have more time to gently separate from the placenta.
  • Want to reduce the risk of anemia (the same reason behind the delayed cord clamping).

Risks:

  • There are several known risks associated with lotus birth.
  • The placenta contains blood, and once the umbilical cord stops pulsating, circulation stops and the organ is dead tissue and can be prone to infection- which might then spread to the baby. Bacteria can proliferate in dead and decomposing tissue, which is why it is typically disposed of.
  • It is generally discouraged by the medical profession due to the risks, then there are not any experimental studies.
