Thanks for your all replies.

Have you done this? Can you recommend a reputable location? I regret not doing it w/ my son and just found out they let you pay out the 1st year in installments (the place I'm considering costs. $1950 the first year and $125/ year after that). Anyhow, now that I know this, I was going to do some more research.

Baby on the way. I would like to find out more information, including cost.

Does anyone have experience or feedback with banking newborn baby's cord blood ?

Hi, I am pregnant with our fourth baby and this will likely be our last baby. We are considering banking the baby's cord blood, of course hoping that it would never be needed. Has anyone else done this? How did you choose a company to bank with? I have read in articles in a parenting magazine a while back that talked about the downside of banking and how much of it is marketing, and that they don't really know if the blood would be viable in the future...Just the flipside of the issue yet I still think it is important to consider and was hoping for some feedback. Thanks!
