Cord blood banking

Any mothers tried private cord blood banking, able to share the rough cost estimate and why you choose to do so. I know overall it’s like an insurance in case child needs to harvest stem cells in future but just not too sure of the cost benefit and if it’s common to do it in Singapore? #advicepls #1stimemom
