I have to have them too its called rohgam and it keeps your body from rejecting future babies if your blood happens to mix surfing pregnancy you can develop antibodies that can make your body think babies are a virus to b attacked or sumthing I'm rh negitive and both my kids have been positive so its a good thing to get just in case!!!
