Well, all that is good, but remember how unintended consequences come along with intended consequences. I have an interest in ADHD and the various theories that attend its origin but I found the most interesting web site that has to do with stem cells. At http://www.cordcutting.com, a retired doctor has a lot to say about the dangers of cutting the umbilical cord before the cord has ceased infusing. It began, it seems, when Moms were alarmed at the appearance of newborns tinged yellow--a temporary pehnomena but with the dissemination of information after the ww11, the jaundiced condition was something to be feared, not tolerated, so the drs began to cut early to keep the blood from saturation and make the (temporary) jaundiced condition a non-event. Later, it seems like a good idea when drugs that eased the delivery saturated the infant also. So, here we are at a time when most cords are cut before infusing is finished and now the blood is in demand. Quite a serendipitous event if it were not for the fact that the early cutting caused serious problems. Only lately have studies been done to demonstrate that as long as three years later, the babies still had insufficient iron levels. And, at the time of birth, serious complications can arise caused by insufficient oxygen. The doctor speculates cerebal palsy is the direct result of insufficient oxygen due to early cord cutting. Very frightening, especially now so, since the blood is in demand and pressure will be to obtain even more than previous. Quite a lot to consider in this time of making a profit out of anything you can and the babies can't speak for themselves.
