www.cesareanrates.com/ CesareanRates.com launched February 9, 2012, as a snapshot of online cesarean rate reporting in the United States. Updated in late 2012, the site compiles the most current hospital-level data accessible to the public online, whether reported directly by a state�??s department of health or gathered from state hospital association web sites via pull-down menus. The initial goals of the site are to a) show the quality and inaccessibility of information available to the public, b) to assess whether there is public demand for this information and c) to work toward establishing a precedent for hospital data transparency.

placentabenefits.info/ Placenta Benefits (PBi) was founded in 2006 by Jodi Selander in Las Vegas, NV. The purpose of the organization is to educate women and professional communities about the benefits of placentophagy (placenta ingestion) for postpartum recovery. The vast majority of mothers will experience some sort of postnatal mood disorder, with some estimates as high as 80%. When a mother suffers, it affects the entire family. PBi believes that placentophagy can help these mothers have a better postpartum recovery, and possibly avoid the baby blues.
