You don't need to do anything else, sweetie! If you already had the shot, then you don't have to have it again. Correct me later if your doc tells you otherwise, but because you're both negative your body will not attack your baby because the baby will have the father's blood type. If your baby had a positive blood type your negative type blood would attack baby. So you'll be just fine!

What it means is that you are RH negative, but the fact that DH is also RH negative means you DO NOT have to have the shot! WOO HOO!

are you rhpositive? the concern is when you and your hubbie are oppoistes
it just means that you will have to get a needle at 28 weeks and then again after the baby is born if it the oppoiste rh factor as you. it has no affect on this pregnancy but it can cause your body to attack any future pregnancies and you'd probably miscarry
