Would you use a cord bank?
jswinghammer: We didn't for our daughter who is two and a half now. It's expensive and provides dubious benefits. We're hoping to have a child next year and we won't do it then either. There's a lot to worry about when you're expecting your first child but this isn't really a big deal. I'd spend more time worrying about other things.Congrats by the way! This is a very exciting time. My daughter is an absolute joy and I'm sure your child will be for you too. Good luck!
