King gave birth via C-section to a son, Lucky Levi, on September 1. Her mom, London King, served as her doula.
"Appreciation post! My mother, the angel of all angels is the best doula ever! I will get into my birth story when I'm ready…but this person is my best friend," King wrote. "She helped us get the whole house ready and even though Lucky ended up a belly birth, she was my doula through the whole process, and most importantly she was the best mom I could ask for. She is seen here cooking my placenta to encapsulate it for all the amazing benefits! I love you @pushlovedoula! We couldn't have done this without you!"
Some people believe that a birthing person can obtain benefits like reduced postpartum mood swings, increased energy, and a better milk supply from consuming their placenta in pills. Consuming one's placenta is known as placentophagy.
