I have to C&P this one from the Bump
in Married Life
From Blended Families:
" I know he stays with her every night at either his or her house but something hurts a little more to know they will be making it "official" by sharing a home. The place I called home for years. The place I was building a life in with my fiance. The place where I buried my placenta with a tree thinking I would watch it grow for years and think of my son...it's like my heart is breaking all over again..."
Please tell me normal people don't do this.
Seriously, people. If your faith in humanity is destroyed because your parents told you there was a Santa Claus and as it turns out there is no Santa Claus, you are an ignorant, hypersensitive cry baby with absolutely zero perspective.

January Jones dried hers and ate it. DOn't know if she counts as "normal" or not, though.
But yes... this is a "thing".

Yeah, one of the replies:
Actually injesting (like im doing) your placenta has many medical benefits and many people plant it or dry it and keep it.
i wonder if it makes you literate.
this is such a freakin bummer. that's hardcore having to LITERALLY leave a piece of you at the new house where your xh is banging his girlfriend.
it gives me the wiggns.
Lol.
A lot of people claim that encapsulated placenta can stave off ppd.
I guess I don't think this is that weird, although I had no desire to save mine. I think the placenta is fascinating and I can see why people are attached to it. Hippie, party of one?
If you have a homebirth you cannot just dump the medical waste in the trash. Many people will bury the placenta.
Of all the crazy out there in bump/nest land, this is not too far out. It is kind of sad.
lol! I like this.
And at least January Jones had it put in capsules and took it in pill form. This grosses me out a lot less than picturing somebody at the dinner table with a fork and knife.
Yeah I think it's weird but I'd be super pissed if I went through all the trouble of actually doing it and some new chick is living there now.

I feel like burying medical waste wouldn't be okay either. That gets into the water table yo.
Then I guess you wouldn't want to be downhill from where I buried my horse.
dh once did a funeral where he buried a guy next ot his horse.
