Babies are expensive. Without a doubt, there is a lot of cost involved with raising a child, whether it’s a boy or a girl, your first child or your third. As you are planning for the birth of your baby, you are no doubt going to be stocking up on baby gear, clothing, and everyday essentials like diapers, baby wipes and receiving blankets.
But there are investments to consider with a new baby. Savings accounts and college funds are two common types of investments.But there is another investment worth considering: the investment of umbilical cord blood.
Unlike savings accounts and college funds, which can be started at any time, you only have one chance to invest your baby’s umbilical cord blood, and that’s right after he or she is born. The stem cells found in umbilical cord blood can be used to treat over seventy different diseases, a few of which can be life-threatening if not treated. Plus plenty of research is being done to see what else stem cells can take care of.
If you’re thinking that cord blood banking is something you can’t afford, then consider Cryo-Cell. The company is currently offering a special Protect Baby, Protect Mom promotion. The promotion entitles you to save over $700 on the cost of processing, testing and one year storage of stem cells from your baby’s umbilical cord blood. You have until 07/26/09 to take advantage of this promotion. Simply use the promotional code 995PS to get the $700+ discount!
