Is collection of cord blood different with a cesarean section?
The collection process is essentially the same with a cesarean section. Just like a vaginal delivery, the cord blood will be collected after the baby has been delivered and umbilical cord has been cut. We provide a sterile extension set for the physician to use during c-sections. If your physician prefers a sterile collection bag with a separate anti-coagulant, we can provide that as well.
