Yes. If the father is the AO variety of A, he can contribute an O and the mother can contribute the B, making a BO variety of B for the child. And, the father can give the Rh positive while the mother gives an Rh negative, which will be an Rh positive.

Yes - but the father must be Rh positive.

If the father is homozygous positive (++) then all of the children will also be positive. If he is heterozygous (+-) then 50% of the children should be positive and 50% negative (when the mother is Rh negative).

If both parents are RH+, the child will be RH+.

In this case, the father is A and B. The mother is either, BB or BO.

In the AB (Father) X BB (Mother), the outcome is AB or BB.

In the AB (Father) X BO (Mother), the out come is AB, BB, AO, BO. So yes, a A+ child can result.

Without knowing if either parent has A, this cannot be determined.

If neither parent has A, then AB child is impossible.

Maybe, in there family tree there has to a dominant trait of AB, so there child could skip a generation and get the dominant trait, not the recesssive trait.

Can parents having same blood group 0 positive give birth to a child with blood group 0 negative?

If a mother has blood group 0 positive and the father is also 0 positive can they give birth to a child with blood group 0 negative?


Why check baby's blood type when mom is O positive?

If the father's Rh factor is negative, it is helpful to know before birth if the baby is negative so an antibody reaction can be anticipated.


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.


Is there any problem in pregnancy if mother is O- and father is O plus?

Usually not the first pregnancy, but if the baby is rh positive, during birth some of the baby's blood may cross into the mother's bloodstream and then she will be sensitized and will produce anti-rh antibodies, which could harm the second baby if it is rh positive. There is an injection that is given to rh negative mothers during pregnancy to prevent this reaction.


What happens with a rh negative mother and father?

t's always a good idea for any couple to think ahead and prepare for pregnancy, so Mom and baby can be as healthy as possible. When facing the potential for Rh disease, as you two are, it's even more important. You'll probably want to educate yourselves about Rh incompatibility. And in any case, make sure you find a health-care provider who understands Rh disease, and with whom it's easy to communicate. Rh disease of the newborn arises from incompatibility of the Rh factor between the mother and baby. It's a bit simplistic, but you can think of the Rh factor as a protein that is either present (positive) or absent (negative) on red blood cells. Exact percentages vary with race, but most people are Rh-positive. A woman with Rh-negative blood has nothing to worry about if their baby is also Rh-negative, and a woman with Rh-positive blood need not worry at all. Problems arise only with Rh-negative mothers and Rh-positive babies. Usually the first pregnancy goes fine. It's a subsequent Rh-positive baby who may be at risk. The mother themselves are in no danger.

Why would an Rh negative mother and an Rh positive father have difficulties with the birth of their second child?

When the father is Rh positive, it is possible that the child will also be Rh positive. Or, if the father is homozygous ++ or DD, then all of his children will be Rh positive. When an Rh negative person is exposed to Rh positive blood, in this case during birth, they will develop antibodies against the Rh positive blood. This means that if they come in contact with Rh positive blood again, they have antibodies which will attack the Rh positive blood. This is what happens when the mother is Rh negative and the foetus is Rh positive. There usually isn't a problem with the first pregnancy, because the mother might not have been exposed to Rh positive blood before. However, if the second foetus is also Rh positive, the antibodies in the mother's blood will attack the foetus. This ranges in severity, but can cause the death of the foetus. In most cases this is preventable - the mother can receive an injection of anti-RhD immunoglobulin during pregnancy or soon after delivery.


What are the implications of having type a negative blood?

The negative blood comes from the rhesus scale. So type A negative blood means you are rH negative. This poses a potential problem during pregnancy if the mother is rH negative and the father is rH positive. In that case the mother will receive a rhogam shot during pregnancy and right after birth to prevent the potential mixing of blood between mother and child from causing a serious reaction in the mother's body.


3 mo old baby has a low blood count mother is negative blood and father positive can this be the cause of the low blood count?

This can be a cause if the baby had a low blood count from birth or very shortly after, especially if this is not the first pregnancy. Hemolytic disease of the newborn can be caused by the mother's antibodies attacking the baby's red blood cells if the baby if Rh positive and the mother is Rh negative. The antibodies get into the baby before birth, however, so if the baby developed a low blood count at 3 months it would not be because of the negative/positive blood type.
