Cord Blood Banking

I am in my 25th pregnancy now and it's time to start get things ready for the baby to come in September.

First thing I needed to do was to try to find out the information on cord blood banking, 臍帶血. I finally got the chance to call on Friday. I was going to do it for Cassandra 4 years ago, but after the cord blood went to the lab after delivery, it was found that there was not enough blood drawn, meaning, not enough stem cells. And, therefore, we had to cancel everything. I want to try it again this time and hopefully I will be able to bank his cord blood.

After 40 minutes phone conversation with the sales, I signed up. Because I am considered as repeated customer, I got $400 discount, which came out to be $1,750 for courier fees, processing fees and the first year storage. And, every year afterwards is $125 for yearly storage and the price is guaranteed for the next 18 years. The sales was super nice over the phone, and we will receive our kit by next week. I did it with Cord Blood Registry and if anyone is interested, please mention my name as your referral..hee hee...I get one year storage for free. ^_^

So, one thing is done from my list!
