andromeda: Actually, the placenta is considered a delicacy in some cultural gastronomancy. I have a Woman's Herbal that gives recipies on how to prepare this beautiful greenish-purple sac for supper.

As for the mucus plug, no recipies are given. But the possibilities are endless, truly. Child's first toy, a tasty teething ring, gum stand...someone needs to market that for Christmas!

dottionline: ACK!

man, andromeda's gonna wet herself when i send her a refrigerated package in the mail after the baby's born ... marked perishable.
