Our Lotus Birth Bag is a handmade crochet bag designed to hold the placenta during a lotus birth.
Made from 100% cotton, this soft and practical placenta bag is designed to comfortably hold the placenta along with herbs or other materials used as part of your chosen lotus birth practice.
The bag features a drawstring closure, allowing you to securely close the opening around the placenta while keeping it contained.
What Is a Lotus Birth?
A lotus birth, also known as umbilical nonseverance, is the practice of leaving the baby attached to the placenta after birth rather than immediately cutting or clamping the umbilical cord.
The placenta remains attached until the umbilical cord naturally dries and separates from the baby's belly button. This commonly takes several days, although the timing can vary.
If you are planning a lotus birth, speak with your midwife, doctor or other qualified maternity care professional about appropriate handling, hygiene and care of the placenta and umbilical cord.
