taye diggs had a placenta lady for a doula

not that i had any idea who this was (aside from my addiction to alldoulas and the internets, i'm kind of a cave woman) but apparently he was on jimmy kimmel talking about how great his doula was and how she did placenta encapsulation. they kind of make fun of it but hey, for mainstream tv, that is probably the best we'll get for now.

I saw this too, and I was a little annoyed with the fun making, but you're right, at least it's being talked about some!

So I posted this on my Facebook. And a former client commented, "Taye Diggs can do whatever he wants with my placenta!"

I

Taye Diggs! What a great clip! Wish they'd have said a little more about WHY the placenta is encapsulated...but hey, even though they laughed, Taye's wife had it done! So that's gotta prompt some research by some people, right?
