Viacord

That is the name of the company that is going to bank Cooper's cord blood! We are thrilled that the precious life growing inside me will be ready to make his debut in just a few short months. During the last 27 weeks we have begun to think about things that we never have before ie. childcare, the latest baby trends, recalls on baby products, baby products (in general), breastfeeding vs. bottle feeding,cord blood banking, etc.

We have heard about cord blood banking and knew that it was pretty costly, but we looked into it and asked around and decided we couldn't not do it! We had a family friend pass away of Leukemia on March 31, 2006. Kourtney was 16and was unable to beat such a viscious disease. It is our hope that if Cooper were to be diagnosed with something like that that the cord blood that we saved would help to save his life.

We banked both of our babies through CBR. Its such a great thing! Now you can bank not only the blood but the cord itself! Amazing!
