The Importance of Cord Blood Banking and Early Prenatal Testing

Blood Banking

Pregnancy is a special time filled with excitement, expectancy, and sometimes worry. Every parent wants to do what’s best for their baby from day one. To prevent any complications during pre and post-pregnancy, there are two of the most trusted lab tests for expecting parents.

  • Umbilical cord blood banking
  • Noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT)

Whether looking for prenatal testing or blood banking solutions, FSG Lab offers trusted prenatal medical solutions under expert care.

What Is Umbilical Cord Blood Banking?

The umbilical cord is usually thrown away during a child’s birth. But inside that cord are some very valuable things—stemcells. These tiny cells can help treat serious diseases like blood cancer, immune disorders, and genetic conditions. Umbilical cord blood banking means collecting and saving these stem cells right after birth for use in the future.

How Can Cord Blood Banking Help?

  • Treats diseases like leukemia and lymphoma
  • Can help repair the immune system
  • May be used in future stem cell treatments
  • It could be helpful for your baby or other family members

Why Parents Choose to Store Cord Blood

Saving your baby’s cord blood is an unparalleled opportunity. The collection is safe, quick, and painless for both mother and child. Here’s why many parents choose cord blood storage:

  • Gives peace of mind for future medical needs
  • May save lives—your child’s or another family member’s
  • Non-invasive and safe collection method
  • A smart investment in your child’s long-term health

How Cord Blood Banking Works at FSG

At FSG Lab, experts handle the cord blood banking process with expert care and world-class standards. Here’s how it works:

  1. After delivery, the doctor collects the blood from the umbilical cord. It’s painless and takes only a few minutes.
  2. The cord blood is sent to FSG’s high-tech lab for testing and processing.
  3. Once ready, the blood is safely frozen and stored long-term using cryopreservation.

What Is Noninvasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT)?

You may want to know more about your baby’s health during pregnancy. That’s where noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) can help you with accurate insights. It’s a routine blood test that can give you essential genetic information about your baby, without any risk to your pregnancy.

Why Expecting Parents Trust NIPT at FSG

NIPT is one of the most popular choices for early pregnancy screening. It’s beneficial for parents who want early answers without any risk. At FSG Lab, our lab tests are:

  • Safe – no harm to the baby or mother

How Cord Blood Banking and NIPT Work Together

These two services support your journey as a parent in different ways, but they work best when combined:

  • Cord blood banking helps you prepare for future medical needs

Here’s what they give you:

  • A chance to prepare for special care if needed
