What the Research Says #1: Evidence-Based Look at Cord Clamping
The first episode in my new series "What the Research Says", where I am diving into the EVIDENCE from reputable studies about the routine things done in hospitals so you can create your birth plan with confidence! This episode is all about DELAYED CORD CLAMPING, and the evidence of the pros and cons of delayed cord clamping. In this episode we talk about:
- The different times you can wait to clamp the cord, from 15 second to an hour.
- The benefits of waiting to clamp the cord.
- The risks of delayed cord clamping.
- and more!
I hope this episode is helpful for you in making informed decisions for your birth plan. DM on my instagram @lovelynurtured if you have any questions!
