So what's life like for January Jones considering this is the first season of Mad Men where she had to juggle acting and being a mom off set?
January told People magazine about her parenting skills saying,
“What’s nice is that the expectations for my parenting is very low, so I can really only exceed the expectations.”
“I think I went back to set six or seven weeks after, so he was really little,” she says.
“I had the baby and the baby nurse in their own room so I could go back and feed him every two hours."
“If I felt like he needed me, or if he needed to eat, or even if I just needed a squeeze because I was having separation issues, I would go back and see him. It was such a blessing that I wasn’t separated from him.”
The strangest part of the interview with People is when January admits she is eating her own placenta for energy.
“I have a great doula who makes sure I’m eating well, with vitamins and teas, and with placenta capsulation.”
“Your placenta gets dehydrated and made into vitamins,” she explains. “It’s something I was very hesitant about, but we’re the only mammals who don’t ingest our own placentas.”
That is a total turn-OFF. Thanks.. Now we will never watch Mad Men the same way again.
