Donating cord blood poses no health risks to the mother or the baby, it is medically safe. The cord blood is collected after birth. If there are any complications during delivery, the cord blood will not be collected.

• No, because the cord blood is collected after the baby is born and the umbilical cord is clamped and cut, it does not affect the baby or the birth experience. Cord blood collection should not be performed in complicated deliveries. The cord blood stem cell-collection program should not alter routine practice for the timing of umbilical cord clamping.
