Lotus Birth

by Shivam Rachana

Lotus Birth is the practice of leaving the umbilical cord uncut, so that the baby remains attached to the placenta until the cord naturally separates at the navel - exactly as a cut cord does - at three to ten days after birth. This prolonged contact can be seen as a time of transition, allowing the baby to slowly and gently let go of the attachment to the mother's body. A world-first, this book is a valuable resource for parents, midwives and health professionals working with pregnancy and birth.
