How does rh negative blood types affect pregnancy?

Having a negative rh blood type can seriously affect pregnancy and should be monitored closely. The possible incompatibility between the mother and the fetus could result in the mothers antibodies attacking the fetus as if it were a virus. This can be prevented by a shot roughly 28 weeks into the pregnancy.


If a man has RH positive Blood type and the woman has RH negative blood type will the mom to be have to take shots so she does not miscarry?

No. The RhoGAM (Human Immunoglobulin D) shots are for the Rh negative (Rh-) mother. If it is a first pregnancy, there is usually not an issue. For any terminated pregnancy, by abortion or by miscarriage, then there is usually a RhoGAM shot given in effort to prevent the mother from forming antibodies against any Rh positive child. At the beginning of each pregnancy, the mother's blood "titer" is check -- this will indicate if she HAS formed any antibodies against the Rh positive 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.

Why would there be cause for concern if a young pregnant mother is Rh negative her husband is Rh positive and this is their second child?

Their children have a 50/50 chance of being Rh Positive. If they have an Rh negative first child, there will be no problems with the second child (with Rh groups).There might be a problem if the first child was Rh positive. It is quite likely that during the delivery the child's blood mixed with the mothers. The mother would then have began producing Rh positive antibodies. This means that if the second child is also Rh positive - the antibodies will 'attack' the fetus.

no when Rh negative blood from the fetus interacts with Rh+ blood of the mother there will be no antibodies produced due to absence of antigen on the Rh- blood cells and when Rh positive is mixed with Rh negative blood of fetus no response is produced due to the fact that the fetus has an underdeveloped immune system
