Absolutely not! Race is genetic, determined by the characteristics of the mother and the father. A blood transfusion (from whatever race) will not change the genetic makeup of either the mother or the child.

What would a child be if the father was B positive and the mother was O positive?

I am O positive and my husband is B+. We have two children. Our first child, a daughter, had O+ blood type. Our second child, a son, had B+ blood type. He was born with high levels of bilirubin (had jaundice). In the old days they would do a blood transfusion (which I am opposed to) but now almost all cases are treated with exposure to special lighting. We stopped there.


Is the any risk for a mother with RH positive blood giving birth to a child with RH negative?

No there is not. There is only a risk of Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn if the mother were Rh negative and the child Rh positive. In this scenario, during birth the fetal blood cells may enter the mother's blood stream of the mother. Since the mother doesn't have Rh antigens, her immune system sees the cells as a foreign substance and develops an anti-RH antibody to eliminate them. This would not do anything to the first negative child, however, if she gave birth to a second Rh positive child, the anti-Rh antibodies that are now in her blood stream would see the fetus Rh positive antigens as a threat and try to eliminate them. This would often result in death of the fetus or serious birth defects.

it is rare, but yes. however, blood poisoning is possible and the child could have to have a full blood transfusion if the mother doesn't take pills that the doctor prescribes for the mother if they realize that something is wrong. no, your blood type is in your DNA, and that comes from both parents only, each child gets 50% DNA from each parent.

Do Jehovah Witnesses do blood transfusions even if their child is dying and NEED a blood transfusion because there is not much hope of survival if any hope of survival?

Jehovah's Witnesses who have lost blood are entitled to refuse a blood transfusion even if it will inevitably lead to their death; but they have no right to sentence their children to die. A qualified doctor is entitled to give a blood transfusion provided the child's consent is given. If the doctor is unhappy about this (though why should any doctor be unwilling top save a child's life?), the case should be referred to a doctor who is free from such qualms. If the Jehovah's Witness parent seeks to intervene to prevent the transfusion, the case should be rushed to court, if there is time. If not, the child should be given blood immediately.

If father has blood type B positive and mother has blood type A negative what may be the blood type of the child and are there any possible problems possible for the child?

If the child is Rh positive, and it is the mother's second child, the mother's antibodies will attack the child's red blood cells when the blood becomes mixed during labor. An injection called RhoGAM will be administered to the mother right before delivery to prevent any attack of fetal red blood cells.
