Pretty much every mamal mother eats their placenta after birth except for humans. It's called placentophagia. Maybe you should eat yours after birthing your child. #discuss

Yeah, came in here to say it does happen. But it's very much in the chia seeds and hot yoga realm of the human kingdom

For some reason I find this fucking disgusting. I mean dogs eat their own shit too, you have to draw the line somewhere.

Yes. There is natural hormones in the placenta that cause the uterus to contract and stop the bleeding. Instead doctors give the mother a needle in the or a pill in there anus to stop the bleeding.
