Hey mom, sit on my face

Really?

British doctors say more parents are requesting so-called "vaginal seeding", when a swab from the mother's vagina is wiped into a newborn's mouth after caesarean-section birth, despite a lack of evidence for its medical benefits.

The practice, also known as microbirthing, involves wiping the swab over the baby's mouth, eyes, face and skin to bring it into contact with bacteria from the birth canal.

The hope is this may boost their gut bacteria, and reduce risk of conditions such as allergies or obesity, experts explained in a report in the BMJ British Medical Journal - yet scientific evidence to support it is severely lacking.

Both of mine were c sections . I can just imagine taking a giant q tip afterwards and my wife asking what I was doing . Well I'm going to swab your vagina and rub it all over my daughters face . Umm no

As long as it's not my own mom then I have absolutely no problem with this idea.

True story. My sister volunteers at a Memphis area hospital.

A mother named her new born girl, "Placenta" because the mother overheard nurses using the word prior to giving birth. She like the name "Placenta".

Truth!

Same with me. But it may not be too late to try this. You go first.
