A new Facebook group has recently come online for parents who have banked their baby's cord blood.
Cord Blood Parents at Facebook.com
News about cord blood banking, new cord blood legislation, breakthroughs in cord blood stem cell research, and diseases treated through cord blood transplant therapies.
The Institute of Medicine recommends that, "informed consent for the collection, storage and use of cord blood should be obtained before labor and delivery and after adequate disclosure of information." Our goal is to ensure that consumers receive and utilize information on saving cord blood stem cells so they are able to make an informed decision. Cordbloodbankingnews.com was created by Cord Blood Registry to help raise public awareness about cord blood banking options.
