Why do rh positive parents have an rh negative baby?
Each person carries two bits of rh imformation, called alleles, and each can be positive or negative. A person is rh+ if they have at least one positive allele. Only if both their alleles are negative are they considered as rh-. When two parents have a baby, they each pass one allele on. So if both parent has one positive and one negative allele, and both passed on their negative allele to their baby, then the baby would be rh negative. The chances of two rh positive parents having a rh negative baby are about 18%.

Rh sensitization is a condition where a person's immune system develops antibodies against Rh-positive red blood cells, typically occurring when an Rh-negative individual is exposed to Rh-positive blood. This immune response can cause complications during future pregnancies if an Rh-negative mother carries an Rh-positive fetus. Rh sensitization can be prevented with the administration of Rh immunoglobulin.
