Brief Summary  
HYPOTHESIS:Can we collect adequate amount of umbilical cord blood ( > 15ml/kg) after delayed cord clamping of 30 seconds among preterm neonates less than or equal to 30 weeks gestation or having estimated weight of less than 1200 grams and to check the quality of blood for transfusion till 21 days post collection,

JUSTIFICATION:Very low birth weight more so for extreme low birth weight babies require blood transfusion during NICU stay. the adult blood used for transfusion has less fetal hemoglobin and risk for oxidative stress and immunological reactions when compared to neonatal blood, if we are able to collect and store baby blood after delayed cord clamping and use it in the same baby, baby gets advantage of lesser transfusion related reactions.

BACKGROUND:Though studies have evaluated the safety of umbilical cord blood transfusins in preterm infants , the clinical use of autologous transfusion is limited and these trials have collected cord blood immediatly after cord clamping.
hence in this study we aim to assess the feasibility of umbilical cord blood collection after delayed cord clamping among extreme preterm and to asses the quality of collected blood for autologous transfusion in these infants.
