Generally speaking, you won't see any particular benefits or drawbacks in your daily life. One benefit is that your blood is in HIGH demand in blood banks. As someone with type O- blood, you are a universal donor. This means that ANYONE who is in need of a blood transfusion can accept your blood. The downside to this is that it works the reverse if you are in need of a transfusion. You can only accept blood from donors who are also type O-, a small percent of the population.

Your doctor should be aware of his blood type and should notify the hospital of the possible need of compatible blood for your child in case he needs a transfusion.
