Hi Ladies,

I know I have a while to really think about this, but just wanting to know what you all thought about stem cell collection. Do you think it is better to let the cord pulse at birth or take the stem cells for storage. I am really struggling with this as I want a drug free / natural birth - but I wonder how I would feel about decision if my baby got sick down the line and I could have used his / her stem cells...

I am probably making this into a bigger deal than what it needs to be but I am really torn about this issue.

I have heard that taking the stem cells turn the birth into a very clinical experience and can really affect the way you feel about the birth...
