Have you made your Christmas gift list yet? Have you checked it twice? If you know of someone who is having a baby, think of giving them a C'elle gift certificate for Christmas. They can use it to help pay for the cost of storing their child's cord blood.
I know for some this can be a touchy subject, but from what I have read, there are so many potential benefits that make saving the blood a good idea. Not only can the stem cells be used to fight off many diseases, like cancer and heart disease, for the child the blood was collected from, but there is a good chance it can be used to help that child's siblings. Before making up your mind, find out more about stem cells, and what they can be used for.
Now, I know banking your child's cord blood can be expensive. That is why giving gift certificates is a wonderful idea. Given in denominations of $50, receiving several can really help lower your out of pocket expense. It's just a matter of letting family and friends know that this is what you want. I wish that I had know the value of cord blood when I was pregnant. I would have looked into banking my kids cord blood.
