Freezing umbilical cord - anyone done it?

Trying to find out whether it's worth having the umbilical cord frozen 'just in case'. Has anyone done this?
Thanks!

Do you mean the stem cells from the blood inside the cord?
We didn't but friends of ours did.

Yup sorry the stem cells. Any idea what your friends have thought of it? Cheers

Not sure what you mean. They did it 'just incase' and for that reason are glad they did I think, as the 'just incase' is still there. They haven't had to use them though.
