If you have a negative blood type and your first born has a positive blood type, then if your second has a positive blood type as well, your body can try and reject it at birth. They give you a shot for it. (At least they used to) I had a positive blood type baby, I'm o negative, my second I needed a shot for, of course, this was 25 years ago so....

I assume that if someone around you has mumps, you should be able to get an appointment to check your blood to see if you have caught the mumps. The reason for that is because everyones body reacts different and scientists need blood to determine weather the body will reject or take the vaccine. I hope I gave you an idea of the most possible answer.
