Should your baby's cord blood go to waste?
Whether your baby is your firstborn or tenth, there are so many decisions that must be made involving birth and health care. With the advancement of technology and medicine, the stem cells found in cord blood are very useful in successfully treating patients suffering from immune deficiency to sickle cell anemia and over 80 conditions.
If you wish to donate your baby’s cord blood, you need to make the decision by the 32nd week of your pregnancy period. Once you’ve donated it, it gets listed on the cord blood registry which can be accessed by doctors who need to find a suitable transplant for patients.
