Hey,

My mom has stored the cords for all 3 of us. So I think it used to be at least 30yrs old technique (mostly due to some unexplainable scientific tradition of ours)!

Now a days, they insist upon the blood to be saved. but as mentioned by Kalpana, its highly costly.

so u have to weight pros and cons to make your decision!

I' ll share the info I got.

My husband was very keen after seeing too many ads about cord blood. So we asked our doctor, she said its very useful in cases of fatal diseases like lukemia. But then in India, there are only 4-5 companies that provides this facility. I also heard from her, the storage is useful for only 21 yrs. Its also very costly here.
