It's up to your personal preference, my mum saved mine and I saved my son's! They're kept in a red packet with a small snippet of newborn hair and in a high, discrete place, meant to be for keepsake - some also believe it helps to ward off the evil too. I went a little extra for my son's, made a keepsake necklace with his umbilical cord and my breastmilk with our names on it (I'm a single parent hence only two names and hearts)!

Haha it is nice and sentimental, but I don't wear it at all so ... it's kinda just in the box not doing much :/
