There will not be any problem with the child in terms of blood type. Problems arise with Rh factor (the "positive" and "negative" part of typing) only when the mother is Rh-negative. Then, if the baby is Rh-positive, and then only if the child is not the mother's first pregnancy, the mother's Rh antibodies could harm the fetus and produce severe birth defects or possibly death of the fetus. This page explains it pretty clearly: http://kidshealth.org/parent/pregnancy_newborn/pregnancy/rh.html

So if the mother has positive blood and the father has negative, it is possible for the baby to have negative blood. Then, the only problem might be if it is girl, and she gets pregnant with her second pregnancy.

Can a baby be born with blood type A or O if father is blood type A dominant and mother is blood type O dominant?

The baby can be born with either. My father is Type A and my mother is O. I'm A, and my brother is O. It is possible that it will complicate the pregnancy though. The baby can be born with either. My father is Type A and my mother is O. I'm A, and my brother is O. It is possible that it will complicate the pregnancy though.


How does a baby have o blood type and mom has ab and dad has b?

A baby with O blood type can be born to a mother with AB blood type and a father with B blood type if the mother is a carrier of the O blood type allele from a parent and passes it on to the baby. The baby inherits one O allele from the mother and one B allele from the father, resulting in O blood type.


How does erythroblastosis fetalis develop?

It happens when the father is of a positive blood group (having Rhesus (Rh) factor) and mother of a negative blood group (devoid of Rh factor), the fetes' blood group will be of the positive type, i.e., having Rh factor as having Rh factor is a dominant trait and can mask the negative blood group. So, this creates problems for the kid as well as mother during pregnancy. Usually, the first pregnancy will not have much complications. But, the second pregnancy onwards, the antibodies present in the mother from the first pregnancy will be present and is harmful for the fetes.

Can a baby be born with blood group O if mother is blood group ARh negative?

The answer is no. If both parents have a positive Rh factor, the child will have a positive Rh factor. For example, my mother's blood type was O positive and my father's blood type was A negative. My blood type is 0 negative. I got my mother's blood type but my father's Rh factor. The negative Rh factor has to be passed from parent to child. If both parents had negative Rh factors the child in question would also have a negative Rh factor. The different types of blood, a,b,o,ab, and abo have no influence on the child having the negative Rh factor. Expecting mother's having the negative Rh factor need injections of Rhogam if the father of the child has a positive blood type. This is needed because the mother's body will attack the fetus if the baby has a positive blood type. The body doesn' recognize it and treats it as an invader. The baby can be born severly anemic or can even die. This will also effect pregnancies after that so I urge you to speak with your doctor regarding this issue. I hope I answered your question.

Why is the placenta called an afterbirth after the baby is born?

The placenta is called an afterbirth because it is expelled from the mother's body after the baby is born. It is a temporary organ that provides oxygen and nutrients to the fetus during pregnancy, but is no longer needed once the baby is born.

Does first born baby have same blood type as mother?

Not necessarily. The blood type of a first born baby can be the same as the mother's, but it can also be different if the baby inherits a different blood type allele from the father. The baby's blood type is determined by a combination of the parents' blood types.

Which baby gets erythroblastosis fetalis?

The second baby, normally. Erythroblastosis Foetalis is when a baby with a positive blood group is born to a mother of a negative blood group, and the mother has been 'sensitized' during a previous pregnancy. The mother's body identifies the fetus as a 'foreign' protein and her body's immune system tries to fight the foreign protein, much like an allergic reaction.

You are o what blood type do you have to worrie about when having a baby?

None. What you have to worry about is if the mother's blood type is (-) negative and the father's is (+)positive. When this happens, the baby inside the mother will be (+) and the mother will make antibodies to the baby's blood for the first pregnancy. This will not affect the firstborn, but will affect the second born. This is why they give Rh - moms a shot of Rhogam to keep the mothers antibodies from attacking the baby's bloodcells resulting in anemia.


Can a baby be born with blood type o if the father is blood type o and the mother blood type a?

Yes. The father's blood type must be oo. The mother's blood type could either be Ao or AA (both of these are blood type A). If the mothers blood type is Ao, she could give the o gene to the baby, resulting in the baby being type oo (or type o). (In order to have blood type o, you must have an o from your mother and an o from your father.)
