RH negative (-) vent

[AyeKekee]

So I was told during my first pregnancy that I was RH negative... Only about 10% of women are!

Being RH negative means your immune system will think your baby is a virus and fight; which will cause a miscarriage. Apparently at 28wks there is a shot you will receive so that this doesn't happen.

I guess I'm just extremely nervous since this is my second child.

If its not one thang its another for me SMDH

I am too! Both my parents are which is extreemly rare for a couple! I am pregnant with my first so it is not an issue for this pregnancy. My hubby had to have his blood drawn to see what blood type he is. I hope its not a problem for us. Best wishes for your pregnancy!

I'm rh negative and I had the rhogam shot at 6 weeks because of threatened miscarriage, 30 weeks, and a couple days after giving birth. So far my daughter and I are healthy, so there's nothing you need to worry about :) they'll take care of you!

If a women is rh neg then there is a chance that your blood can contaminate the baby's blood. Im rh neg. I had to get one when I had a both miscarriages.  With my 1st I got one at 28 weeks and after I delivered him. My son is postive like my husband. I had bleeding early on in this pregnancy so I got the rogan shot then. I will get it again at 28 weeks and then when I deliver.

I am too. I got a shot at 28 weeks that stung like a b!tch lol and they said they will check babies bloodtype at birth to see if I need one more. Not a bug deal if h get the shot

My cousin had to get the shots and she had a healthy baby girl :) no reason to worry. They do these tests to keep you and baby safe

Yeah, but it matters what the dad is. Like if you babys father is positive then you have nothing to worry about. But if you and the father are both negative then thats when you will have to worry and get the shots.

I am too lol well if it's rare I guess I'll feel special. At least the shot didn't hurt :)

I am rh- too along with my mother. I had a threatened misscarriage at 7 weeks and they gave me the rogan shot then. I have my next one at my 28 week appointment in 2 weeks. Yay for being weird!
