Please take a moment to review our Preparation Checklist page. This details everything you need to know to prepare, such as what to bring to your birthing location, and when to contact your encapsulation specialist. Depending on where you're birthing, you'll be assigned to an encapsulation specialist that has been personally trained by Nurse Bethany. She will reach out and give you her number to keep in contact with before, during and after birth. You'll provide a cooler for storage (many hospitals are now requiring a 28 qt., hard sided, plastic cooler).

Please book your encapsulation no later than 2 weeks prior to your due date. This gives you time to review our Preparation Checklist, as well as ensures that our specialists have availability around your due date. We know that babies come on their own schedules, and we do our best to accommodate last-minute bookings, but we cannot guarantee immediate service. You are encouraged to Contact Us to inquire about our current availabilities.

Our fee is $300. This includes placenta pickup from your birth location or home, the encapsulation process, an un-painted umbilical cord keepsake and delivery of your pills. You may also choose to add a tincture for $100 or a gold-dipped umbilcal cord keepsake for $10. Payment in full is due at the time of booking.

We provide pick up service 7 days a week, from 8am-8pm. If you give birth outside of that time frame, your partner or nurse will need to add extra ice to the cooler and it will be perfectly safe!

In most circumstances, you'll have your pills ready in 3-4 days. We do our best to return your pills to you as quickly as possible.

The size of your placenta determines the number of pills you’ll receive. Larger placentas equal more quantity of pills and vice versa. The average is around 100 capsules per placenta but it does vary.

HB 1670, known as the Texas Placenta Bill, was signed into law by Governor Greg Abbott on June 17, 2015. It passed in the Senate on May 26, 2015, with unanimous support (31-0). The new law allows mothers to keep their placenta after the birth of their baby in any Texas hospital or birthing center, as of January 1, 2016. It is strongly suggested that you tell your doctor ahead of time that you plan to take your placenta home and write it in your birth plan. Also be sure to tell the nurse when you go in for delivery that you plan to take it home. The hospital may ask you to sign a liability release form. You'll need to provide a cooler and ask for ice to keep your placenta cold.
