I am Rh Neg, And you dont get the RH shot untill 28 weeks then at 34 week unless you bleed! they will give it to you then. The only reason you'll have a shot AFTER birth is if the baby is Pos blood.

Im RH neg, I dont get a shot untill 28 weeks.... another at 34 weeks..... Unless I hit my stomach and or bleed!!

I know that because of the placenta that you can have a completely different blood type then your child and not have it be a problem. I think it is only if your blood test comes back as being RH negative that you need to get the shot. Best thing to do though would be to talk to your doctor though. I'm going to assume since she didn't say anything though that it isn't an issue.
