Hi dear..Mine was a Xmas month promotion. Initial price was $2,955/- for 5+1 year storage. However, bcos of the discount I paid $2,653.60 which covers all related cost including gynae collection fee, lab test n storage fee. The subsequent yr ie 7th yr onwards annual storage fee $275/-.
I actually compared Against Cord life but eventually chose Stemcord bcos they hv 2 storage facility unlike cordlife only 1. Juz being kiasu here.
Also, I m seeing that alot of mummies looking at donating. Personal preference but may want to consider storing for own use (touchwood) but juz in case. BB's cord blood only upon delivery, 100% match for BB, 75% match for siblings, 50% match for parents n 15% match for other relatives. We never know when we need it to save our love ones . By donating, doing good but only at 15% match. Juz my 2 cents worth
The cord blood doesn't applies on all illness & dieases. Keeping baby"s cold blood is just like insurance. Now u buy later when u need it..they will tell u one thing I am sorry we can't used ur baby"s cord blood.
It happens to one of my friend ,End up still she still lose her child who was suffering from leukaemia. What they told my friend was " i am sorry" we can"t used the cord blood due to the condition of your child.
So the moral of this is.. No one (cord bank) can give u 100% promise that it will help ur child even it's a 100% match your child.
