Expert Q&A
I'm having twins. Can I still have the cord blood collected or will things be happening so fast that my doctor won't be able to?
Collections for multiple gestation pregnancies occur all the time. Although it may seem very busy and hectic during the time of delivery, in actuality, the physicians, nurses, and operating room staff are following very specific guidelines. There is no problem identifying and collecting each infant's cord blood, in fact, Cord Blood Registry has been able to collect the blood of quadruplets.
