What if there was a simple and natural way to provide numerous health benefits for your newborn? Join us on this enlightening episode of our neonatal Cocoa pods Podcast as we, along with... actually our host this time, Dr. Bola Sogade, a women's health specialist and the founder of the Birth Center for Natural Deliveries Foundation, uncover the fascinating history, science, and practice of delayed umbilical cord clamping after birth in a series of episodes.
We delve into the multitude of benefits that delayed clamping provides for both premature and mature newborns, such as increased hemoglobin levels and iron stores, decreased risk of intra-ventricular hemorrhage and necrotizing enterocolitis, and the transfer of essential proteins, immunoglobulins, and stem cells. We introduce further topics of discussion on this topic in ensuing podcast series: the process and technique behind delayed clamping, the concept of umbilical cord milking, and what this practice means for umbilical cord blood collection for banking; and we do not leave out what happens in cases of twins or triplets. Don't miss this incredible conversation as we reveal the power of delayed umbilical cord clamping for your newborn's health and well-being.
