A Rhogam shot is given to an RH negative mother who gave birth to RH positive baby, had ectopic pregnancy and miscarriage. Rhogam should be given within 48 to 72 hours to prevent formation of antibodies that can harm future babies.

No, if the male was O pos, the female was O neg, and the baby was O pos, then the mother might need a Rhogam shot. A rhogam shot prevents a "neg" mom from developing antibodies to her "pos" baby which could cause a miscarriage. It's really no big deal, just a little shot.
