A number of organizations encourage pregnant patients to consider donating or banking umbilical cord blood. Collection of cord blood is a painless procedure that does not interfere with the birth or with mother and child bonding following the delivery. There is no risk to either mother or baby. Cord blood collection requires no blood center staff to be present during the baby’s delivery.
What is cord blood?
What should I do if I am interested in storing my baby’s cord blood? At this time Newton-Wellesley Hospital does not collect cord blood for public donation. We recommend discussing your interest with your physician, midwife, primary care physician, or pediatrician.
