rhogam shot question

[BabyVol]

ok i more question...for today at least. i had my m/c sometime in october, not really sure because it was a chem preg. i had a period, just came a week later bc of the pregnancy. they gave me a rhogam shot that day, how long will it last? like if i cant get pg in the next few months, will i need another one? thanks all! happy thanksgiving!

it lasts for 10 weeks.  If you get pregnant and spot after that 10 weeks is up you will need a shot immediately.  Otherwise you do not need one until you are 28 weeks pregnant.

Good luck ttc, I had a mc October 21, had rhogam then....

I'm about to turn 40 and that is my cut off for ttc, so I have one month to go, I hope I have the energy for lots of BD!!!

With my first mc in April, I didn't get rhogam until I asked for it.  My family doctor was out of town and the women who checked me was obviously stupid.....

I was so worried I had anitbodies.

Anyhow, I hope you are feeling better.
