Yes.
In fact, the chances of a mother having an O negative child are better if she is O negative herself, and even better with an O negative father.
I'm not well read on the Rhesus factor (-ve or +ve part of the blood type), but the A, B, O classification of blood type is a fairly simple concept.
Everybody has 2 alleles for blood type (1 from their mother, and the other from their father), which account for the genotype of the individual. Both A & B are dominant to O, and co-dominant (i.e. both are expressed) to each other - that's why we get the AB blood type.
So if the 2 alleles are filled with, for instance, an A & an O (AO), the individual will be phenotypically (what can be seen/tested) A. Similarly, an individual with a B & an O allele (BO) will be B.
But in order for someone to be in the O blood type groupwe know that both alleles must be filled with O (i.e. OO).
Gametes (sperm/ovaries) only contain one of the alleles from the parent. If both parents have the O blood group (OO), no matter which of the 2 alleles the egg and sperm contain, the child will be O as well (as there is no choice in alleles - option 1. O ALSO option 2. O).
However, and this is where it gets complicated, it is possible for a couple who are A or B to conceive a O blood type child, provided both parents are heterozygous (i.e. AO, or BO), and therefore able to create gametes with the O allele - though the chances are 3:1 against it.
AB is the only blood type where it is impossible to have a child with the O blood type. If either parent is AB, there is no chance of both the child's alleles being filled the O allele. Only exception to this rule is Bombay syndrome, but that's another story.
What else can I help you with?
If mom has negative blood type and dad has positive blood type is it true that all the babies you have will be the same gender?
LOL Not true
How do babies get gram negative rod in blood?
Through any type of bacterial infection
Will mother with blood group A Rh negative always have just babies of same gender?
No, a mother with blood group A Rh negative will not always have babies of the same gender. The gender of a baby is determined by the genetic contribution from both parents, not by the mother's blood type.
What blood type do both parents have if the babies blood type is ab negative?
Anything except type 0. You need an understanding of genetics to answer this. There are lots of good websites that explain it.
what determines if a baby's blood type is b ?
In order for your baby to have type b blood, at least one parent must have either type b or type ab blood. Blood type probabilities can be determined for babies by using a blood group calculator. Once a baby is born, the babies' blood will be tested to determine blood type.
Is blood type A negative compatible with O positive to have babies?
An A1 person is an A person. A people are primarily A1 (about 80%) and A2 (20%). There are quantitative and qualitative differences between A1 and A2, but for almost all intents and purposes, these people are blood type A and would receive A red blood cells. (p.s. the negative just means Rh (D) negative)
What blood types can donate to individuals with B negative blood type?
Individuals with B negative blood type can receive blood donations from individuals with B negative blood type and individuals with O negative blood type.
Why do babies with a negative blood type get shots at birth?
When the mother's blood is negative, and the baby's blood is positive, there are some risks to their health. If your blood mixed with her blood at all, she could end up with a disease. They gave her that shot to protect her, just in case.
What can an individual who is blood type AB negative do?
An individual who is blood type AB negative can donate blood to individuals with AB positive and negative blood types. They can receive blood from AB negative donors, as well as from donors with O negative, A negative, and B negative blood types.
How do you find out if your a blood type negative or blood type positive?
Almost 40% of the population has O+ bloodPatients with Type O blood must receive Type O bloodAbout half of all blood ordered by hospitals in our area is Type OType O blood is the universal blood type and is the only blood type that can be transfused to patients with other blood typesOnly about 7% of all people have Type O negative bloodType O negative blood is the preferred type for accident victims and babies needing exchange transfusionsThere is always a need for Type O donors because their blood may be transfused to a person of any blood type in an emergency
Can a child born with rh negative blood type be the offspring of an o negative father?
Yes indeed.
Can blood Type A and blood Type O have babies?
Yes, a Type O person can have children with a Type A person. The ABO gene has nothing to do with the viability of an offspring. Problems occur with the Rh factor (the positive/negative part of a bloodtype).
