    Many believe there are more risks to the baby to cut it early than not. Because there are no harmful side effects if you don't clamp it, only good things, yet harmful because of the things the baby is deprived of if cut early.

    Stem cells. Iron. White blood cells. Red blood cells. 'Killer-T' cancer fighting cells and so on. Studies, yes actual studies which I believe IS proof especially when they are all saying the same thing (see my article Sherie has linked above).

    Cord Clamping - has heaps of links to cord clamping info and studies.

    You really gotta do your own research and be responsible for your own decisions. Just because the people you speak to THINK they know the current research, its pretty clear they don't.
