I always take the sac off too. When I clamp, I put one clamp about 1/2 in. from baby's belly and another one about 2 in. from that - closer to mom. Then cut the cord. I leave the one on by mom so I don't lose the placenta. Just stay calm... it will all happen and you'll be doing it before you even realize!
