That's interesting. I wonder how much blood they actually need. There was a post about cord blood donation on another thread from Sarah Buckley, & she said that donating cord blood did effect the timing of the clampling and cutting so that enough blood was available, I think she said the amount too.
It's a tricky one. If I was able to do it I'd be asking a lot more questions. I love the idea of helping a sick child, but I want my babies to have all the blood they're supposed to have & not have their cords clampled too soon.
