Safety Policy

• It is important to understand the main reasons a placenta could be determined “unsafe for consumption” and avoid anything that is within your control.
• Notify Lauren before she travels to pick up your placenta if any of the following happen:

Reasons a placenta could be determined “unsafe for consumption” that are beyond Client’s control:

1. Maternal fever of 100.4 or above (which is typically indicative of an infection)
2. The placenta having come into contact with high amounts of fecal matter during delivery (determined by your OB)
3. Certain conditions or active infections that were unknown to the Client before time of birth

Reasons a placenta could be determined “unsafe for consumption” that are within Client’s control:

1. The placenta being left out at room temp for longer than 4hrs
2. The placenta being taken to Pathology
3. The placenta being handled without gloves
4. The placenta being rinsed, washed, or coming into contact with any substance or chemical

Travel & Timing Policies

• Lauren charges no travel fee for Clients giving birth and living within a 60-mile radius of Menifee, CA (92584) 

• For Clients outside of Lauren's 60-mile radius there are 3 options:
• 1) Pay a Travel Fee: Pay $0.70/mi for every mile over 60 to pick-up the Placenta and for every mile over 60 to return Home, and again to drop-off your Products and return Home. 
• 2) Meet in the Middle (this option is FREE): Have a friend or family member meet Lauren for the Placenta hand-off and again for the Product delivery.  Lauren can drive up to 60 miles in your direction and your Person can make up the difference. This is our most popular option!
• 3) Shipping (ideal for those too far for driving): You can choose to ship your frozen Placenta to Lauren and then have your Products shipped back to you. Exact shipping costs vary depending on location and size/weight of packages.

*Payments will be requested via PayPal or Venmo by Lauren directly. Payments must be made before travel and/or shipping can proceed.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Placenta pick-ups & Product deliveries are made every day of the week and are subject to Lauren's schedule for that day.  Pick-ups & deliveries are typically not made before 8am or after 8pm. If you give birth during Lauren's "off" hours" simply keep the placenta in the cooler with fresh ice underneath and on top, so that is safely sandwhiched in between ice.
• Please choose a designated "Placenta Person".  This person will be in charge of making sure the Placenta remains safely on ice in a cooler until it can be picked up.  This person will also be in contact with Lauren to let her know of any medical conditions or concerns that might have occured during labor/delivery and to let her know when she can come to pick up the Placenta.  
• When Lauren arrives to pick up the Placenta, she will be in contact with your designated "Placenta Person" who will bring the cooler out to the Hospital Main Entrance where Lauren will be waiting to take it off their hands.  This allows for a qucik pick-up process that doesn't interrupt Mommy/Baby bonding.
• Turn-around time, from Placenta pick-up to Placenta product delivery, can range from 24-96 hrs (Depending on: 1) Lauren's schedule for that day, 2) If there is another Client's placenta already processing, 3) Which Products/Services were ordered).
• Lauren's schedule on any given day will ultimately determine how quickly she can pick up your placenta or deliver your products.

2. Notify Lauren when you are in labor and have your "Placenta Person" let her know when the placenta is ready for pick-up.
