Today, we're uncovering a practice in many hospitals that could be robbing your baby of a third of their blood volume right after birth. This scientifically backed episode will arm you with everything you need to advocate for delayed cord clamping - a vital decision that can drastically improve your baby's first year of life. From boosting iron levels and enhancing brain development to improving circulation, discover why waiting just a few extra minutes before clamping the umbilical cord is a game-changer for your baby's health. We also tackle common concerns like C-sections and cord blood banking, ensuring you're well-prepared for any scenario. Don't let anyone else make this decision for you; your baby's health is in your hands. Tune in and walk into your delivery room confident and informed.
