Answer 7

nope...

Answer 8

No I didn't. They are kinda gross rotting tissue, plus I am not the sentimental type.

Answer 9

no, i think that is gross. i am not the sentimental type

Answer 10

No way.

I know you get a lot of advertising to "bank the cord blood" and all that, but it's a lot of money for something you'll never use...  plus it seemed gross to me to keep the umbilical cord as a souvenir like some parents do - like a fleshy dried up rotting grossness in your baby's book? No thanks. Keep the hospital bracelet! That's what normal people do! Lol.

So no, I didn't, to be sanitary and less complicated. My son is 2 1/2 and healthy as can be!

Answer 11

Yes!  I saved my son's, even though theyre gross.

Answer 12

No!  GROOOOSSSSSS!   Is this some new popular thing to do?  What do you do, put it in a jar on the mantle???  Weird!
