Coronavirus (COVID-19), Pregnancy, and Breastfeeding: ACOG Message for Patients
Banking cord blood in a private umbilical cord blood bank is a personal choice made by both parents. Private banks store cord blood with a link to the identity of the donor, so that the family may retrieve it later if it is needed. The parents have custody of the cord blood until the child is an adult. The cord blood might someday be needed by the donor baby, or it could be used by a relative who is a close enough match to receive a transplant from the donor, typically a sibling. Private banks charge a fee to preserve the harvested cord blood for family biological insurance.
