RH- blood type?

Question

Any mom's have Rh- blood type with Rh+ daddy and had a successful pregnancy? I'm currently 3 weeks with my second pregnancy, the first being a misscarriage. I am worried that I might possibly lose this one because of this. Any advice?

Answer

Hey, I'm rh- too. The only difference it makes it that you get the anti D shot a couple of times in pregnancy and once after you give birth. This stops your body developing antibodies that attack the baby if it happens to be rh+. Talk to your doctor or midwife about it :-)

Answer

The fathers blood is irrelevant in regards to compatibility the only concern is the rh- boood which requires the rhogam shot before delivery and after

Answer

Thanks guys, I asked my doctor and he confused me with his answers lol. Thanks for clearing that up.. I think maybe I'm paranoid to lose my baby is all lol

Answer

You’ll have to get the anti-D shot during your pregnancy. 
Potentially what has happened is when you sadly lost the first pregnancy, if the baby had a rh+ blood, then your body will have produced antibodies that would then potentially attack future pregnancies. That’s why women who are rh- are advised to get the anti-D shot when they deliver their babies, if they’re not sure of the fathers blood group. The only exception is when a rh- mother has a baby with a rh- father.
