I learned very early on that we were doing things we were not supposed to be doing. We were using the vacuum, for example, to assist deliveries, and we did not write it down. It did not go in the chart, and we didn't talk about it openly. So if you wanted to tell another student what happened, you might say something like, well, she had to eat some fruit.

Some people have heard me talk about this and have said, well, why didn't you get out of there all I can say is that it felt like we were doing something good. It felt like we were breaking the law for all the right reasons. I learned how to make placenta pills. Placenta pills are where you take a woman's pieces off of it, put it into a dehydrator, and then you grind it up into a powder.

And then you take that powder, you put it into capsules, and you give them these capsules and tell them to swallow them. We made placenta pills for everybody who wanted them. It was extremely popular. This was in the early to mid 2000s. Probably 80% or more of our clients took their placenta pills.

There was actually a bust where they came in and they took all of the placenta pill making equipment. And when I say they, I don't remember exactly which government agency it was, but it was a government agency that showed up and took all the placenta pill making stuff.

It came to light at that point that the hygiene practices at this birth center were pretty abysmal. The fact that we used to have multiple different women's placentas drying in the same dehydrator at the same time. The fact that sometimes you would mix up whose placenta was whose.

I remember that one time I was cleaning out the grinder and I was really trying to get it clean because I was going from one person's placenta to the next person. me and she was like, what are you doing? And I said, well, I'm cleaning out the grinder between placentas. And she kind of laughed and rolled her eyes. And she was like, we don't do that. You go straight from one placenta to the next.

It was one of those things. I was just part of the culture. I thought to myself, well, what's the point of me being so fastidious if no one else is? I found out that was not the only thing that was happening at that birth center. That was not legal. We were allowed to start IVs, but there were things going into those IVs that shouldn't have been going in there according to the law.
