“What Every Mama Needs To Know About Cord Blood Banking,” a pre-Mother’s Day “mama-logue” for expectant moms or women who hope to one day conceive and want to get smarter about this very important topic.

I am Lisa Valastro, mother of four beautiful children and the wife of Buddy Valastro, also known as TLC’s “Cake Boss.” I am so excited that you have clicked your way to this page and took the first step toward learning more about cord blood banking. Our “mama-logue” is taking place on Friday, May 11 from 11 a.m. – noon (eastern).

I am hosting this online conversation because I am a big believer in cord blood banking.Buddy and I saved the cord blood for all of our kids and even preserved the placenta blood stem cells for our youngest, Carlos, who is now one year old. I encourage you to join the discussion to learn:

• The basics of cord blood banking
• What cord blood stem cells are and why they are unique
• Why scientists are hopeful about their role in the future of medicine
• How the collection process works
• The options for preserving your newborn’s cord blood stem cells

I will be joined by Daria Klachko, MD, FACOG of St. Barnabus Hospital and Short Hills Surgery Center and Charis Ober, founder of Save the Cord Foundation.    Together, we will do our best to answer your questions.  So please take the time to submit a question when you register.
