Cord Blood banking is becoming more and more popular, now that people are understanding more about its benefits. I know with my first son, I received a pamphlet about it and I didn’t really understand it. Then with my second I learned a little more, and now thanks to the Internet, I feel pretty well educated about it. I don’t know that it is something I would do if I got pregnant again because the cost for me is just something outside of my budget right now, but it is definitely something to think about. I also like to share new ideas and practices with others.
Over 12,000 Cryo-Cell umbilical cord blood stem cell transplants have occurred worldwide to treat over 75 different diseases. That really amazed me, as I used to be single minded and thought umbilical cord blood could only help a few uncommon diseases. Also, I read that cord blood stem cells are 100% match for the infant donor and a 1 in 4 match for a sibling.
Right now, Cryo-Cell is offering a special discount for expectant families to store their baby’s cord blood. By using the promotional code “HOT” you can save $725 off the Cryo-Cell’s U-Cord Service, but the discount is only good until 6/28/09. Cryo-Cell is the industry leader in cord blood banking with over 175,000 clients and more accreditation’s than any other private cord blood bank.
