If a person has the Rh factor, then they are positive. If they don't have the Rh factor, they are negative.
The Rh factor is dominant, so a mother with it would have an Rh positive baby even if the father is negative for the Rh factor.

Mother and father both rh positive what will baby be?

IF a mother is HR negative and father is HR positive why is second pregnancy a problem?
If the mother is Rh negative and the father Rh positive there is a possibility that the unborn baby will be Rh positive as well. If the baby is Rh positive than the mother (who is Rh negative) has antibodies made for Rh positive substances which would include the baby. Basically the mothers body will attack the baby because it is not a match with her body. Commonly this is not as much of a problem with the first baby because the body does not build up the resistance to the first child but the second child will often run into complications because the body has built up antibodies against the second child's Rh positive blood. This is often called Rhesus disease or Rh disease.
What is the significance of rh blood group in lady of child bearing age?
A pregnant woman is at risk if she is Rh negative and her partner, and in turn, baby are Rh positive. While carrying the baby, the mother's blood, which is Rh negative, may mix with the baby's Rh positive blood. The mother's body will create antibodies to the Rh factor and treat the baby as if it foreign. The body would almost have an "allergic reaction" to the baby, so to speak. The antibodies would start to attack the baby's red blood cells and the baby would develop anemia which could become severe and dangerous. Thankfully screening can determine if a mother is Rh negative and she will be given an injection that will suppress her reaction to Rh positive cells in her fetus.
Can I become a father because my blood group is A- and my wife's blood group is positive?

Is there any problem in pregnancy if mother is O- and father is O plus?
Usually not the first pregnancy, but if the baby is rh positive, during birth some of the baby's blood may cross into the mother's bloodstream and then she will be sensitized and will produce anti-rh antibodies, which could harm the second baby if it is rh positive. There is an injection that is given to rh negative mothers during pregnancy to prevent this reaction.

Can a mother with A positive blood type and a father with O positive blood type produce a child with 0 negative?
Yes this depends on type off parent alleles Rh- ,,,,,,, alleles are (Rh-Rh-) Rh+ ,,,,,, alleles are (Rh+Rh+) or ( Rh+Rh-) if mother is (Rh-Rh-) and father is (Rh+Rh+ ) there is no chance to have Rh- baby, here all will be Positive if mother is A+ (Rh+Rh+) and father is O+(Rh+Rh+) also here there is no chance to have Rh- baby, and all will be Positive if mother is A+ ( Rh+Rh-) and father is O+( Rh+Rh-) the may have a negative baby but with very low percentage that reaches to 25%
Can both of the parents be RH Neg and still have a healthy child?
Yes. You will occasionally have problems if the mother is Rh negative and the father is Rh positive; if the baby is Rh positive, there is a possibility for complications if the baby's blood poisons the mother. This is pretty rare these days.
How does having Rh positive mother and Rh positive father effect baby?
Generally the baby will also be Rh positive (depending on the parents' specific genotypes) - and thus be at less risk for erythroblastosis fetalis.
Mother is o positive and father is o positive Does this mean baby will be o positive?
No. There's a small chance the baby will be O negative--if both parents have an Rh negative (recessive) allele, and the baby inherits this allele from both parents, the baby would be Rh negative. But if the baby inherits the Rh positive allele from either parent, the baby will be Rh positive.
Could a Father with type b rh positive blood and mother with type o rh positive have a baby of blood type a positive?
