PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Today we received news that I have antibody in my blood that can make our baby's liver swell. Was told that if they come back stronger and more are produced then I have to go to a specialist to talk about options. Has anyone else had this?? What happened? Was told that we probably won't carry full term.. Please someone tell me their experience. I'm going crazy! We will receive the results in a week or sooner if the news is bad. 12 weeks pregnant and baby's heartbeat has been 150

My baby is perfectly fine.
I bled at 6wks and again just this past Monday I had a gush of blood. My U/S was Tuesday and baby is doing awesome.
Just follow Dr's orders and you should be okay. I've got enough stress going on in my life, and if I'm going to have another miscarriage, it's nor preventable - unfortunately :(
So with that being said, I'm just taking it easy (as much as I can with a 5yr old), and have a 'if it happens it happens' attitude.

Yes I have been having shots and did with all my pregnancies. But it seems that I had a miscarriage before and didn't know it so I developed antibodys and the shot can't fix it. Ribaby, is your baby ok? What happened?  My Dr said I probably won't go full term.. :(

I have antibodies in my blood right off the bat.
I'm 0- and Corey is B+
They monitor my blood every month to make sure the levels are either staying the same, or decreasing. IF they rise, then other options need to be done.
DONT GOOGLE IT.
I did and it scared the SH*T out of me thinking I'd need a blood transfusion, etc.

Worst part is last night I kept having bad dreams and would wake up telling myself that it wasn't true... Then it dawned on me that it was :(.

No they did not recommend this. Our baby is my first pregnancy to have problems Like this. My Dr is monitoring us carefully and I go to the drs every 2 weeks, have been since week 2 (yes week 2). We have been crying all day and just hope that something can be done to protect our baby. Thanks ladies

Yes I have received RH shots with all 4 babies. My Dr said this is VERY rare and she hopes to God there is a mistake.

2 of my friends had this, I thought they just give you injections during your pregancy, both my friends went over their due date and both babies and mums were totally fine, have you talked to your dr about treatment, don't use the Internet to google, it will just freak you out

I also have negative blood but luckily havent been in your situation. Im so sorry to hear that you have developed that antibody. Im a bit shocked that they havent been treating you with anti d with both your pregnancies or more if you have more babies. I hope everything works out and that your baby pulls through. Sendjng best wishes your way. Xxx

I have A- and my husband O+. Did they give you any anti-D? Hopefully bubs is strong. Is this ur first? The way my doc explained it, the antibodies only occur that can affect a second or later pregnancy- even if it didnt reach full term. Did they recommend 6 weeks on ur back???

My husband and I have been doing more research. It's antibody D. I am RH- and my husband is RH +. So my blood and baby's blood got into each others system somehow (probably a tear) and is attacking one another. Our baby will eventually bleed out BUT baby can get blood infusions but not until week 18

When I was 12weeks pregnant my baby heart beat was practically the same.... Nothing wrong with that.... About the liver I am sorry have no idea..... But ask your doctor.... And be positive.... Any stress you are experiencing will impact the baby... So relax you can't do anything anyway.... I am sure all will be good
