Cord Blood Banking with CBR®
helps you protect your baby - and enjoy peace of mind
My name is Marisabel Davalos and I wanted to share our experience with CBR and cord blood banking. By now you've probably seen a flier at your OB-GYN office from CBR, the Cord Blood Registry. I know that I saw the signs posted throughout my OB-GYN's office during my prenatal visits. Although I searched the online forums for new expecting moms on the topic of cord blood banking, I wish someone had posted information about cord blood banking. We banked our baby's blood with the Cord Blood Registry and found the process to be very simple and a very positive experience. At an increasing rate, expectant parents are storing blood stem cells for a number of developing technologies, not only as potential life-saving resources for current uses of stem cells but also for their future potential.
Cost is a concern given that it is an expensive process. However, The Cord Blood Registry offers several different payment options and you don't start payment until you have banked the cells. So, you have a few months, if you enroll early enough, to put money aside for the fee. In the big scheme of things, we strongly feel that the cost pales in comparison to what banking with the Cord Blood Registry really is: and added insurance policy for the health of your baby.
After Banking our Baby's cord blood in June, 2008, I become a CBR Parent and am on a mission to get the word out about cord blood banking. Consider that today stem cells are being used to treat nearly 70 diseases, including leukemia, other cancers, and blood disorders. Researchers around the world are working to develop treatments using newborn stem cells to treat conditions such as heart disease, juvenile diabetes, and brain injury. It is the possibility of all these (and more advances to come in the future) that we banked with CBR. In 2009 we were blessed to find out we were expecting again. Without hesitation we signed-up again to bank our second child' cord blood with CBR.
As a CBR Parent, I am able to offer special pricing. Take advantage of the special pricing and use the "contact me" form to ask me more about the importance of banking, more about our experience with CBR, and more about the special pricing. Or simply feel free to contact CBR directly and tell them Marisabel Davalos referred you to them to learn more about cord blood banking and enrolling.
