Yes, in fact if she does so it helps the uterus contract, decreasing bleeding and helping to get the placenta out faster.

How does the umbilical cord come out of the mom Will it fall out or do you have to cut it out?

The umbilical cord is attached to the placenta, which develops to nourish the fetus. During gestation, the placenta is attached to the wall of the uterus. However, after the baby is delivered the placenta detaches from the wall of the uterus and is delivered through the mother's vagina via contractions of the uterus like those that delivered the baby. The delivery of the placenta is the third stage of labor. Complications can arise if the placenta does not detach properly, or if is positioned such that it delivers before the baby. Severe bleeding and maternal death could result. In Western cultures, the umbilical cord is generally cut soon after the baby is delivered and the placenta and umbilical cord are disposed of following delivery. However, blood stem cells can be harvested from the cord for medical treatments. Also, some cultures allow the baby to remain attached to the placenta and umbilical cord until it degrades naturally. Some people also keep the placenta and have the mother consume it, or they plant it int he ground with a tree to nourish the tree or it is saved as a keepsake.

What is it called when the placenta is birthed before the fetus?

This condition is called Placenta Previa. With placenta previa, the placenta grows on the lower part of the uterus partially or totally covering the opening of the cervix. The placenta should form at the top of the uterus, above the baby. With a normal pregnancy, the baby would be born first, then the placenta. With placenta previa, the placenta would be delivered first. Women with placenta previa require a c-section because as soon as the umbilical cord comes into contact with oxygen, the baby will automatically breathe with his lungs. Delivering the placenta first puts the baby at risk of suffocation in the womb.


Where do most mammals grow before they're born?

Most mammals are placental mammals: they develop in a placenta before birth. Marsupials also develop in a placenta, but they are delivered much earlier and the placenta is less developed. Monotremes develop within an egg, which is kept inside the mother for some time before it is laid. It hatches several days later.

What happens if your placenta is too low?

This is called Placenta previa and it means that they will have to give you a c-section, because the placenta would be delivered before the baby and that is not a good thing so they play it safe by doing the c-scection. It also depends on how far you are. If you are not that far along then it is a chance that the placenta will move up.
