Can a rh negative child be born from parents who neither are rh negative?

Yes, an Rh negative child can be born to parents that are both Rh Positive. Each person carries two alleles or genes for the Rh factor. To be a negative you must have a double negative (-/-) since being Rh negative simply means that you do not have the Rh factor. If the two alleles of a person are positive and positive (+/+) then they are obviously positive. But if the are (+/-) they are still considered Rh Positive. The Rh factor is there, no matter what the strength. So as long as both parents are (+/-), they can both donate a negative gene to give their offspring a negative/negative (-/-) and make them Rh Negative. Aside from doing genetic testing, there is no way to easily test whether or not a person is (+/-) or (+/+). That can not be determined from normal blood typing.

∙ 11y agoYes this can happen because the Rh negative allel is ressecive.
The parent have Dd, either the D or d will be transferred to the child.
So the child can have DD, Dd, Dd, of dd.
In the last case, dd, the kid is Rhesus negative.
It's a 25% chance in fact :)

∙ 14y agoYes, if both parents are negative, the child will be negative.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoOf course, there is no other option.
all kids will be negative in this case :)
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoYes, It's a recessive trait.

Can 0 positive parents born an A positive child?
With genetic mutations during replication, anything is possible. But, in general two O negative parents could only have a child that is O negative. Conversely, two O positive parents could have a child that is either O negative or O positive.
A child is born with type ab blood. which of these statements is true?
A+ Neither parent can have type O blood
What are the causes of Noonan syndrome?
Noonan syndrome is caused by the mutation in a particular gene. It is a genetic disorder which means that the child which is born with this disorder, must have been in their parents.
Can a baby be born with blood group O if mother is blood group ARh negative?
The answer is no. If both parents have a positive Rh factor, the child will have a positive Rh factor. For example, my mother's blood type was O positive and my father's blood type was A negative. My blood type is 0 negative. I got my mother's blood type but my father's Rh factor. The negative Rh factor has to be passed from parent to child. If both parents had negative Rh factors the child in question would also have a negative Rh factor. The different types of blood, a,b,o,ab, and abo have no influence on the child having the negative Rh factor. Expecting mother's having the negative Rh factor need injections of Rhogam if the father of the child has a positive blood type. This is needed because the mother's body will attack the fetus if the baby has a positive blood type. The body doesn' recognize it and treats it as an invader. The baby can be born severly anemic or can even die. This will also effect pregnancies after that so I urge you to speak with your doctor regarding this issue. I hope I answered your question.

Can a child be born blind if the father is fully blind in his right eye?
it is extremely rare that blindness is passed on through heredity. Any child can be born blind, regardless of whether or not the parents are sighted. Unless there is a strong family history of blindness in the father's family, there is probably nothing to worry about.
Can parents with both negative blood parent a positive child?
absolutely. as long as one of the parents is positive, the child can be positive. and if one parent is A the other B, the child can be A, B, AB or O depending on the parents' other alleles. so the child can definitely be A or B positive, but also A negative, B negative, AB negative, AB positive, O positive or O negative.
If the mother has a negative blood and the father is b negative does that make the child ab negative?
No. If both parents have a negative blood type, the child will either have the mother's blood type,or father's blood type, or if one parent is A- and the other B- only then can a child be born AB-. However, if two people with negative blood types try to have a baby, that may be very difficult. Sterility usually runs on the negative blood types, but conceiving a child is not impossible for them.
If a child is born in Australia will they be an Australian citizen?
A child born in Australia will be a citizen if one of the parents is Australian or a permanent resident of Australia. If neither of the child's parents are Australian, the child will be a citizen on its 10th birthday if the child is living in Australia. Otherwise, no.

Can 0 positive parents born an A positive child?
With genetic mutations during replication, anything is possible. But, in general two O negative parents could only have a child that is O negative. Conversely, two O positive parents could have a child that is either O negative or O positive.
