how expensive?

Is cord blood banking? my best friend wanted to do it with her first but said it was wayyyyyy expensive. I really want to be able to do it for my little monkey.

I didn't do it with either of my oldest kids but if there is a reason during this pregnancy that I feel I need to I may. Probably not gonna happen though

It is but it's really worth it! If something happens to him you can fall back on that. I had to do ALOT of research on it but once I did all the research and made a list of the pros and cons, the pros just over took the cons. And I wanted to save that money for him, that money that we are using for the banking could be a college tuition or a small trust fund, which is still being done, just not that much is being put away.
Also there's ways you can do it and pay it off little by little, kinda like a loan. I think everyone should look into it..

Yes that's what I had to pay, I'm doing it but my monthly payments will only be $200.

Some will do it cheaper but guess it depends where you live my quote was 1500 initially and 500 a year for them to store it

[MrsCookii]
