My son was born 2 1/2 months premature. My wife had tumbled down the stairs and broke her water. At the hospital, they tried to stop the labor that began to occur and were successful for a couple of days until an infection entered the womb.

I don't know about the placenta, but the umbilical cord was bright green when he was delivered. I remember it vividly.

My son turned out fine, btw. He's joining the Marine Corps as an officer after he finishes his senior year at A&M.
