If the mother is Rh negative and the father Rh positive there is a possibility that the unborn baby will be Rh positive as well. If the baby is Rh positive than the mother (who is Rh negative) has antibodies made for Rh positive substances which would include the baby. Basically the mothers body will attack the baby because it is not a match with her body. Commonly this is not as much of a problem with the first baby because the body does not build up the resistance to the first child but the second child will often run into complications because the body has built up antibodies against the second child's Rh positive blood. This is often called Rhesus disease or Rh disease.

What problems might occur if a mother is rhesus-negative and the father is rhesus-positive?

It is possible for there to be problems with a pregnancy. If mother's blood type is negative and the father's is positive, and the baby is positive, her blood type may begin to attack the child. Make sure she checks with her doctor regularly during a pregnancy.


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 are the benefits of o negative blood?

If you are a blood donor your blood can be given to anyone. Everyone who is O negative is OO negative, by father, husband and both my sons are all O negative. If you are a rhesus negative woman married to a rhesus positive man you may need to have Anti-D while pregnant and after delivery to prevent your blood becoming sensitised and affecting a Rhesus positive baby More elaborate answer on pregnancy in rhesus negative women: If you are a rhesus negative woman pregnant by a rhesus positive partner you WILL (typically only after the first pregnancy, but, it's suggested with any pregnancy of a Rh- woman) need a RhoGAM (Anti-D) injection in early pregnancy to protect the embryo from being miscarried from an attack by your immune system and again during or immediately after delivery to stop the fetal blood (which most likely will be positive) from mixing with your blood preventing your death. Negative can successfully mix with positive, but, positive will kill a negative.

Can A positive and B positive blood type cause a problem pregnancy?

The critical information for mother/father is the "positive" at the end of the blood type. The refers to the rh factor, which if an rh Negative mother conceives a child with an rh positive father, the fetus may have rh positive blood. The mother's body will fight the baby's body and can cause problems. If the rh factors are different, the mother will be given two doses of RhoGam, which will allow the pregnancy to be carried to term without problems. However, A positive, and B positive are compatible, and will not need this.

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.
