Most likely nothing will happen but if you are Rh- and baby is Rh+, there is a chance that there might be a break in the normal barrier between mom and baby's blood at birth and mom needs the Rhogam within 72 hours of birth (or even miscarriage). If she doesn't get the Rhogam, the next baby can be seriously damaged. Do not get the Rhogam during pregnancy.
