Thoughts on Cord Blood Storage

Anyone got their child's cord-blood stored? Can you share which service you used and how was the experience? (i.e. paperwork, cost, etc)

Hi. We got in touch with Cordlife. It was a promotion of sorts, so we got it for around 5k. The paperwork was easy and we got the kit delivered. We also told the doctor. We took it to the hospital and called a number provided as my wife entered the OT. Someone came and collected the kit afterwards. There are a few things you should check: .Duration of storage .Costs involved while making a withdrawal .Do they deliver worldwide .Where are they storing? Do they have their own storage? .What happens if the company closes Compare a few and try and negotiate. They often are willing to drop the price a bit! Hope this helps.
