And here I was thinking that coming down with the creeping crud was the sign that this week has gotten off to a bad start, but I honestly think seeing this is even worse. And I say that as someone who learned how to process placentas (so as to make them consumable in a powder-filled pill) at a midwifery conference.
Seriously, just plant it with a nice rose bush. Your baby will thank you for not turning his or her placenta into a freaky teddy bear.
Edited to add: Great minds think alike, heh. Except Abigail provided a much more informative post than my YAARRRGGHHH!!! take.
