Hi We Have Been Blessed With A Baby A Few

Hi

We have been blessed with a baby a few months back
> We have opted for stemcell storage with Lifecell for him.
> The Steam cell bank / storage unit have done certain tests initially in which they had come up with the results that the cord blood group of "B -tive "
> However the blood test at the hospital said the baby's blood group is "B +tive" (I am B+ & my wife is O+)
> So we are worried if they have mixed up the sample or something
> Our pediatrician hasn't heard any instance like this before wherein the child's blood & cord's blood groups are different

Could some one please help us understand if there is an issue with the stem cell storage bank or is is possible that the baby's blood group and the cord blood group are different.
