The Placenta
“It may not be pretty to look at, but it's the most beautiful organ there is.”

The placenta is a remarkable organ. It is an organ, just like your liver, kidneys or heart. But it’s the only organ the human body can grow when needed and remove when its job is done. And then your body can grow a new one when needed again. Your bag of waters, growing out of the margins of the placenta, is your baby’s home for many months, with your placenta providing everything your baby needs to grow and thrive. As Williams Obstetrics puts it, “It may not be pretty to look at, but it's the most beautiful organ there is.”
