who’s A-?

Question

Has anyone experienced having A- as their blood type and getting a shot around 28 weeks? i’m a nervous wreck!!

Answer

My mother and sister in law are both RH - my mom had 4 babies my sister in law 6 all will be fine just extra monitoring

Answer

I'm O- this is 3rd baby and hubby is A+ so I have to get it every time I'm pregnant. it's not so bad just a shot in your hip.

Answer

I am O- and I get the Rhogam shot. This is our sixth pregnancy and third child. I actually needed it earlier in pregnancies 4, 5 and 6. #4 was our second son I started bleeding at 5 weeks and continued bleeding through 20 weeks. So I got it at 5 weeks and 28 weeks. He was A- so I didn't need it again. Pregnancy #5 I started bleeding at 4 1/2 weeks from a subchorionic hematoma that cleared by 11 weeks. We lost baby just short of 14 weeks. was given the shot at 4 1/2 weeks, at 14 weeks the day of my first d&c; and 2 1/2 months later after my repeat d&c.; Started bleeding at 4 weeks this pregnancy and got it at 4 weeks. I will have it again at 28 weeks. If baby does not deliver before 40 weeks you will need it again. The shot is good for 12 weeks. If baby is born with a + blood type then we will both get the shot at birth. If not we will not need it again.

Answer

I'm A- also and will be getting my first shot at 28 wks

Answer

Why do you get it at 20 weeks? I need it because I’m A- and my husband is O+ but I don’t get it till lost delivery?

Answer

I’m O-, I have already had 2 rhogam shots. I am 21 weeks 1 day and will have another shot at 28 weeks. They are not painful, they are just like any other IM shot.

Answer

It really isnt anything to worry about. Just a simple stick & its done.
