This beauty had a succulent lobe. The bubble looking thing in the middle upper part of the placenta is membrane that was in between the main lobe below & upper smaller succulent lobe above. It's all still one placenta, just a variation in of normal 🤩 #placentavariations #placentaart #placentanerd #birthart #placentamom #sacramento #placentaencapsulation #placentalove (at Sacramento, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKiV7GhpYY-/?igshid=c3muoxa2oinh

I love never knowing what I will have the honor of working with. All placentas are cool to me, but this placenta was an exceptionally cool one with a substantial velamentous cord insertion. "A velamentous cord insertion is when a fetus' umbilical cord abnormally inserts on the edge of the placenta along the chorioamniotic membranes, causing fetal blood vessels to travel unprotected from the placenta until they come together and reach the protection of the umbilical cord." #placentaanatomy #placentanerd #placentatime #placentavariations #placentamagic #placenta #placentalove #placentamom #sacramento #placentaencapsulation #placentaspecialist (at Sacramento, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD2e9Gyp3WB/?igshid=1rdfuxkjqd9lx
