A slang term for the placenta, sometimes used by midwives.
Midwife: Well done, you have a beautiful baby girl, now lets get her handbag.
Mother: Pardon? What?
Midwife: Oh I'm sorry love, the placenta, I believe baby's handbag sounds a lot nicer that 'afterbirth' or 'placenta'.

I have everything in my handbag to keep me happy and contented, and that's what she's had to keep her happy and
contented for 9 months.
