I had the pleasure of talking with Carrie Lauth from Natural Moms Talk Radio, and the show is now available! It was a great interview, so take a minute to check it out when you get a chance. Carrie was so easy to talk to, I could have chatted for another hour.
Thanks Carrie!

Gee, is The Placenta Blog becoming some sort of celebrity hound? Nah, but I figured since I was on a roll here…
Apparently Amanda Peet had some depression issues following the birth of her daughter 18 months ago.
Here’s a snippet of the interview she did for Gotham magazine:
AP: [after I gave birth] I had a fairly […]

I admit, I have a bit of a crush on Matthew McConaughey (I mean, get a load of those abs!). But now I can declare myself an official fan, though it has nothing to do with his role as a movie star.
After the birth of his son Levi on July 7, he buried the placenta […]

This is my long-overdue book review. I must admit, I’m terrible at returning library books on time, and apparently, my book reviewing career is off to a similarly late start.
Jan Tritten of Midwifery Today graciously sent me a copy of Cornelia Enning’s book on placenta, with a simple request that I review it here. I’m […]

Yes, I realize it is now the 5th of July, but better late than never, right?

June has been an intense month, and as it draws to a close, I’m looking forward to next month, and whatever it […]

Mark’s memorial service was on Thursday evening, so I was in Wisconsin for that. I’ll be heading back down there next week to spend some time with my aunt.
I’m posting because I just discovered that the submission form on my contact page has had an error. If you have tried to contact me through that […]

My uncle Mark passed away yesterday. He fought a brief but strong battle against cancer, after getting the diagnosis of lymphoma in February. He was incredibly strong and healthy, but the cancer was cunning, hiding itself until it was already very well established throughout his system. He leaves behind my fabulous aunt Roz, and their […]

I’m working on the site right now, finishing up the final details. I’ll have it online just as quickly as possible.

Tomorrow is the big day for the launch. I have been shining and polishing and fine-tuning the site all day. Sometimes it’s tough to be a perfectionist (I blame my Virgo nature)!
I can’t promise what *time* tomorrow the new site will go live, I will want to do some pretty decent testing on it, but […]
