"If you have any doubts about whether to do this, don't.  The time with your baby after the birth is so important and to go through it feeling great and without feeling too exhausted and over-emotional makes everything else so much easier.  When Lynnea came round to do the capsules I was feeling exhausted and felt like I couldn't go on feeding my son as my milk felt empty.  Within 1 hour of taking the capsules I had so much milk he couldn't drink it all. We found out a few days later that he had a tongue tie and were told that it was unusual for him to be gaining so much weight as most babies with tongue ties struggle as they cannot feed properly so the mother never produces enough milk, yet I continued to have loads.  Next time I'll be brave enough to go for the smoothie after the birth and just not think about it, so that I don't have to wait for the capsules and can feel great sooner.   I couldn't recommend it enough.   "  Mum of two, Mary in Guildford

"My experience with Koala Therapies (now IPEN) and placenta encapsulation was one of the best things about my birth experience, which on the whole was quite complicated and traumatic.  I do feel the capsules provided me with the missing energy and balance required to see me through.  Post-partum wasn't completely blues-free but I feel I had a much gentler ride through those tricky few weeks than I might of done without the capsules"  Mum of one, Samantha in London

"Post-partum I had more energy in the initial weeks and felt calmer."  Mum of four, Liz in Sussex who used the Hire Kit service

" I have suffered from mild depression in the past, which becomes worse when I'm tired.  I experienced almost no baby blues or weepiness that everyone else talks about.  I also had several people comment on how happy I was and how well I coped with having a new baby - my husband is definitely a convert!"  Mum of one, Amy in London

"I believe that placenta encapsulation is a natural action.  I wish that this was offered by the Nhs as standard to all women as it is such a healing & powerful source that mothers need following birth. Maybe there would be less PND if this was done. I felt sane, energised, happy even though I had had a particularly traumatic induction due to pre eclampsia. My BP returned back to normal within a week(it can take up to a month or more normally for this).  I allso had a 2nd degree tear that healed up beautifully without infection, I had stopped bleeding after 2 weeks & my uterus had shrunk back to normal after 2 weeks.  My skin, hair & nails still look great 13 wks later, many of my NCT mums have hair falling out which I don't.
everyone comments how amazing I looked after the birth & I put this down to the PEncap. I can't thank Lynnea enough for all her support & conviction that this is a right & normal thing to do, it gave me the confidence to talk about PEncap with friends, family, Health care professionals without feeling ashamed, I felt empowered." Mum of one, Angela

"I had lots of milk, without engorgement, early on. I don't know what would have happened without it, but I didn't experience any pain or wake up suddenly engorged - the milk was there right away. I had a placenta smoothie within 12 hours of the birth." Amy, mother of two

"I was told I wouldn't be able to breastfeed because I had had a breast reduction 6 years earlier. In the hospital I did have some milk, but within a week of taking my capsules I was pumping 5 oz easily."   Ashley, Mum of one

"For me personally the increase in milk and the ease of feeding has been the greatest benefit. The raw placenta smoothie was noticably helpful - the bleeding went from heavy to light in 5-10 hours.  My mood and energy levels were also much higher than I expected.  And it didn't taste of anything other than berries which was a complete surprise - in fact it was quite delicious!"  Kate, mum of two in London

"This was my 2nd pregnancy and I felt more in control and less teary. I can actually notice the difference in my mood once I have taken a pill. This could be because I am more relaxed than the first time round, but I definitely feel that the pills make a difference to my emotional state."  Mum of two, Krishna in Surrey

"I recovered quicker this time, even though the births were very similar and that I had a nearly 3 year old to look after this time too."  Mum of two, Karen in Woking

"Thank you for a friendly and reliable service." Mum of one, Julia in Brighton

"My milk came in earlier (I was) better able to cope, improved mood and less teary.  (It) definitely improved my energy levels in early weeks and also enhanced my mood."  Mum of two Gail in Guildford

"Having suffered twice from post-natal depression I was determined to try benefiting from the goodness of my third baby's placenta.  I really think it has made a difference to the 'tiny baby' stage and I have saved some of the pills for later in the first year, a vulneralbe period for me.  Thanks for making it possible!" Mum of 3, Kate in Oxford

"Lynnea was an absolute super star about coming out to us after my C-section and was so helpful, she made it all so much easier" Mum of one, Nina in West Sussex
