New mum Isabel Lucas has detailed a bizarre placenta story, after welcoming her first child with American partner Cyrus Sutton.
The Home and Away star, 41, gave birth to a baby boy back in December.
Taking to Instagram on Sunday, Isabel recounted an unusual story regarding the placenta, while revealing her son's unique name.
'Archer... our source of delight and joy. Our little beloved is filling our days with a purity of love that keeps growing.'
Continuing, Isabel revealed that she and Cyrus had buried the placenta under a tree on the couple's Byron Bay property.
Isabel also shared a clip of her and Cyrus burying the placenta along with clips of the actress flaunting her baby bump.
We recently buried his placenta beneath a small hoop pine on our land. It was our Christmas tree,' Isabel continued.
'My mum chose it for its scent and modest size, not realising it might grow 60 metres sky high.'
She added that the ritual felt like 'closure.'
'We wanted to honour the life giver and mark the threshold. The earth nourished the mother, the mother nourished the baby, and so in reciprocity the placenta returns to the earth,' she wrote.
'It felt like closure, a living prayer connecting him to his birth soil, his home and family, honouring that his roots stretch far beyond this place.'
The post was met with a flurry of comments, with fans quick to congratulate Isabel on becoming a mother.
'Congratulations. How gorgeous. You will be a great mum,' one offered, summing up the sentiments of many.

Angels everywhere… In the signs and synchronicities, intuitive whispers, in the circles of support, in the water and nature's intelligence,' Isabel captioned the post.
'Through all beauty and the pain, softening fear into love. Opening up new fields of possibilities, bridges of light,' she continued.
'Thank you to all the angels… seen and unseen, known and unknown. Thank you to our bright little son, we love you all ways.'
The veteran Australian actress announced that she was expecting her first child in October.
'Sometimes words flow and sometimes the mystery is too vast. All that remains is to feel,' she captioned the post at the time.
'A new forever exists here. Among petals of silent wonder and pure love,' she added.
'Together we hold this miracle with tender heartful hands.'
Also featured in the pregnancy post was Isabel's beau, American film director Cyrus, with whom she became Instagram official back in August.
In an array of photos, the pair could be seen cuddling in front of an idyllic waterfall, with Cyrus, 43, going shirtless and showing off his muscles.
'Where dreams rest,' the Australian star captioned the series of romantic images.
The loved-up pair embraced and shared smitten looks in the carousel of images posted on Isabel's Instagram.
It's unclear how long the couple have been dating, however, Isabel was last linked to a man named Samuel back in 2023.
The actress, who dated Chris Hemsworth in 2006 before his Hollywood big break in Thor, is known to be notoriously private when it comes to her love life.
She has previously been romantically linked to indie pop singer Angus Stone and Entourage star Adrian Grenier.
