Anyone else thinking about donating the baby's cord blood? I applied at Be The Match to donate for free, since I think it's a waste to throw it out when it can save a life, but I didn't get any answer from them.
since I couldn't afford to store it I'd rather pay it forward ya know, it may help someone or help find a cure to something and that means more to me than storing it and possibly never needing it
yeah I had my boys at a university hospital as well. I would ask at your next appointment. just be like hey do you all use cord blood or take it for research or something, cuz I don't mind I want it to go help someone who can benefit from it. that's what I said to my ob's and they said that's what they do.
I'm having my baby at a University Hospital.. but as far as I know they don't take the cord blood for research there.. I'll look again into it.
I also can't store it myself, too expensive.. @twinmamma2015
I tottaly agree with you! 😉 @twinmamma2015
